Meet the Teacher

Hello parents! My name is Sandra. I am a native English speaker from New York State. I have a USA teaching license and Bachelor's Degree in Childhood Inclusive Education (Grades K-6 and Students with Disabilities) from the State University of New York at Fredonia. My experiences include teaching at primary international schools in Belgrade, Serbia for 2 years and 3 years at international schools in The Hague, Netherlands. I have worked at two IB primary schools. Alongside teaching at international schools, I have 8 years of experience teaching English. I have taught children from 2-17 years old and adults. My students range in levels from beginners who are new to learning English, to fluent English speakers that need learning support or those would like to further excel or maintain their fluency. Based on my experiences, I have learned to adjust my teaching style based on different students' needs, cultures, socioeconomic backgrounds, and learning abilities.

Individualized Online English Lessons or Learning Support Tutoring

Lessons are provided online to children and teenagers. Lessons are customized to the learning needs of your child. Whether that be learning English for the first time or practicing improvement of speaking, reading, comprehension, pronunciation, listening, writing, grammar, etc. Lessons can be aimed towards learning a topic such as food, animals, sports, emotions, and more. For children who are fluent English speakers, tutoring can be given to progress or excel in particular areas. Subjects that interest the student such as science, history or world topics can be incorporated into the lesson to broaden their knowledge. Support can also be provided in learning organizational skills, research, and mini projects for older children. I am available to help with studying, homework, or school projects. Variety of platforms, websites, educational games, and e-books are used to reach the learning goals of my students. Depending on the students age, lesson duration is adjusted. If you are looking for lessons for siblings, please reach out to me to discuss the best schedule for your children. My goal is to create a positive and enjoyable learning environment for all my students.

Parent Testimonials

  • “Sandra has been teaching my 9 and 11 year old sons online for more than one year now. This includes various types of exercises tailored to the needs of my children such as: reading comprehension, summarising and organising, reflection, thoughts and ideas, written and oral expression, homework support incl. for larger projects/presentations among others. We are fully satisfied with her support in all respects. We could feel that she is a very experienced teacher and noted the impact that the online sessions had on our children’s academic progress. Our children enjoy working with Sandra, her kindness and the fact that every session is concluded in a recreational manner (games, quizzes, etc). We also appreciate her flexibility, patience and attention to parents’ wishes. In brief, we can definitely recommend her.”

  • "We found Sandra not too long ago, and commenced lessons with her on 22 May 2022. As I am a native Anglophone, while my girls go to a school where English is not the primary language of instruction, I am keen to pursue English lessons on our own time. So far, it has been great! My girls – six and eight years old – really enjoy the lessons, and always have positive things to say afterward. Further, Sandra keeps me in the loop by offering a recap of what she has covered with the girls in recent weeks. Sandra is competent, kind, and enthusiastic, while being responsive to the individual needs of her students. Despite the lessons being virtual (i.e., as opposed to in-person), Sandra remains effective at teaching, while my girls have been receptive to the online format. I am really pleased, and imagine that we’ll continue lessons with Sandra for as long as she’ll have us. To be clear, I recommend Sandra without reservation!"

  • "Sandra is an amazing teacher. Not only is she academically solid, she is also a lovely person that immediately connects with her pupils. For over three years she has tutored my children, both in person and online. They are always enthusiastic and happy to attend English class and their level has improved significantly since they started with Sandra. For over two years, Sandra has also taught English to their grandma, who can now hold a conversation in English and, like the boys, can't wait to have her next class with Sandra!”

    Cynthia

  • "I recently enrolled my daughter (Dutch native) in English lessons with this teacher and I must say, the experience has been fantastic. My daughter has learned so much in the past few weeks and it's all thanks to the teacher's fun and engaging approach to teaching. The lessons are always interactive and my daughter loves them. She looks forward to her English class every week and I can see a noticeable improvement in her language skills. The teacher has a talent for making the lessons enjoyable and my daughter has a great time while learning. I highly recommend this teacher to anyone looking for an enjoyable and effective way to learn English!!!"

  • "'Sandra teaches my 9 year old and 7 year old kids, who are enjoying her online classes very much. I appreciate the tailor-made approach she uses to fit the learning needs of each of my kids. She reads different stories with them, and does projects based on these readings. These have helped my kids to improve their vocabulary and fluency. She is very kind, approachable, and flexible. We are very happy my kids have a teacher who is excellent at what she does."

    Bilisuma

  • "Sandra has given private lessons to our daughter since she was 3. It was for her the first contact with the language and Sandra was very much the reason she felt in love with English. From the first moment she had very well-structured lessons, adapted to our daughter’s needs with a lot of fun and didactic activities so that our daughter could both learn the language and develop in many other ways. She is fantastic with kids and has a contagious enthusiasm. We really recommend her as a teacher, she is truly an amazing professional!"

    Silvia and Jan

  • "Sandra is teaching my 2 and 4 year old. They are brought up bilingual and Sandra is great in helping us to educate and develop their English further. We found it important that learning is fun and Sandra incorporates this in the assignments. Sandra’s assignments are playful, but at the same time very educational and brings their English to the next level. The boys are always eager to see her again. Sandra is friendly, patients, organised and great with kids. Would definitely recommend her."

    Flora

  • "My 8 year old daughter takes english classes with Sandra and enjoyed it a lot. The lessons are well structured with a lot of extra materials. Sandra keeps engaging through the lesson and ensuring the progress of the student. They even had a birthday bingo lesson on her special day. I can highly recommend Sandra!"
