Best IB tutors in Rotterdam & online

I’m Borg, an IB graduate with 41 points currently perusing a double bachelor in Econometrics and Economics. I achieved 7’s in Math A&A HL, Physics HL and a 6 in Economics HL. I have been tutoring for 5+ years now (2 with Lanterna). At university I work as a head teaching assistant (entailing I teach first and second year university content of my degree) in particular for courses relating to Calculus and Statistics. My teaching style prioritises simplification. What this means is that I want my students to be able to explain complex mathematical ideas to a toddler, as this demonstrates thorough understanding. Furthermore, I focus on exam prep, as IB exams have a particular format and style (becomes very apparent after 5 years of doing past papers). Outside of University and Tutoring I am an avid football fan, love to travel and read.

I am Monika, a certified German and English teacher with extensive international experience in IB MYP and DP programmes. I have been teaching IB German A, B (SL/HL), and Ab initio for several years across Europe, the Middle East, and Asia, preparing students for outstanding results in their final exams. With a Master’s in German Language and Literature, plus a BA in both German as a Foreign Language and English Language and Literature, I bring deep subject knowledge and over 20 years of teaching experience, from UK curricula to international schools. I have also authored student books and digital learning materials used in the classroom. My teaching style focuses on creating engaging, learner-centred lessons, building confidence, and developing exam strategies tailored to individual learning needs. I value clear communication, cultural context, and helping students think critically in the target language. Beyond teaching, I love reading and exploring literature, sewing and designing clothes, swimming, gardening, travelling and taking long walk with my dog.

My name is Maja and I am currently a PhD student at King’s College London working on therapies for blindness. Before this, I got a BSc in Biochemistry and MSc in Neuroscience at Imperial College in London. I graduated from the IB with 43 points and 7s in my HLs of Biology, Chemistry and maths. I’ve been tutoring since I graduated from school and have 8 years of experience with students 1-on-1 and in group settings. I try to take a personalised approach to each student and focus on exam strategies that really work. I am also happy to advise on career paths and university admissions.

Specifically, I am an IBDP Physics and Extended Essay Examiner. Mathematics and physics are my subjects of instruction. Conceptual understanding and problem solving allow me to make mathematics and physics engaging for my students.

My name is Rachel, I am a 2021 IB graduate from the Netherlands, and I have been enjoying tutoring ever since finishing high school. I completed the IB with a score of 41/45, managing to get a 7 in all my sciences Chemistry (HL), Biology (HL), Physics (SL), Math AA (SL), with Physics as a 7th subject. I recently completed my BSc in Economics (at Erasmus University Rotterdam), and I am nearly finished with my second BSc in Molecular Life Sciences (at Utrecht University). This year, I started my MSc in Econometrics and Operations Research at the Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam, and I am planning on continuing my academic adventures with a MSc in Biotechnology. My broad but technical background makes me knowledgeable in many different subjects, which is what energises me. Having prepared for many, many exams now, I am confident that I have mastered many exam techniques. My teaching method is mostly problem solving based, keeping it interactive, engaging and productive. Outside of my academics, I love meeting with my friends, arts, music. I am very excited to share my knowledge with you, and to get to know each other! With kind regards, Rachel

I’m Elisabet, a native Spanish teacher with over 20 years of experience. I’ve taught in the UK following the national curriculum, including A-Level Oxbridge entry preparation, and worked as an AQA GCSE Assistant Examiner. In Spain, I’ve served as a Language Acquisition Teacher and Language Support Department Coordinator in IB international schools. I hold degrees in Journalism and Political Science, am PGCE qualified and IB trained, and have completed a Master’s degree with ongoing doctoral research. Having taught students across all ages and abilities, I focus on tailoring each learning journey to my students’ needs. My lessons combine clear explanations, practical strategies, and authentic communication practice to build confidence, fluency, and cultural understanding. I believe learning a language should be both effective and enjoyable; a skill for life, not just for exams. Outside of teaching, I love reading, yoga, gardening, swimming, and learning new languages. Let's master this key global language and discover the richness Spanish culture!

I’m Amalie, an IB graduate with 44 points which includes 7s in every subject. I did the IB in England in 2021 and now study Medicine in Germany. I have tutored chemistry with lanterna for the past 4 years and have recently taught a chemistry course in an international school in Switzerland for a week. I have a passion for chemistry and although it may not come so naturally for others I want to inspire my tutees and show them that they can achieve even the top grades. I base a lot of my tutoring on past paper questions, as the IB ask very similar questions each year. By learning these patterns, each of my tutees are in an excellent position to score a high grade. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy playing tennis and playing the piano.

I break down complex texts and assessment criteria into manageable steps and see myself not only as a tutor but also as a mentor who guides students towards academic independence and confidence. Outside the classroom, I am passionate about languages, nature, intercultural education, and continuous professional learning. I enjoy travelling, engaging with different cultures, and staying connected to global education communities.
