About me

I am Liza, 30 years old, originally from the Netherlands where I studied and worked as a child psychologist. I have worked a lot with children diagnosed with AD(H)D, but also with other problems, and love working with both young and older children (including grown up children!). I have also taught `developmental psychology` to University students and worked as a mindfulness trainer, both with children and adults. Currently I am studying to become a Tai Chi teacher, so my interest lies a lot in personal development. I am a patient and caring person, easy to be around, and I believe I can be of an amazing help to people of all ages to help them finding back their motivation and passion in learning. I also play the piano since a very young age and have reached a point now where I can play naturally by improvising.

I have worked individually with children with special needs in my work as a child psychologist, and before that also in a school for children with special needs in the Netherlands. I have taught groups of University students in the subject of Developmental psychology and I have worked a lot with groups of adults and teenagers in giving them mindfulness training (stress reduction training). I have experience in teaching piano to beginners and intermediates, with a speciality in helping people to improvise. I have experience in private tutoring (1-1) in Geography, History and Psychology. Maths has always been one of my strongest subjects, and I am keen on starting with tutoring in this subject as well. But most of all I believe my strength is in combining my passion and experience of working with children (with and without special needs), with my enthusiasm, patience and encouragement, all in a light and fun way.

Mostly daytime, and some evenings and weekends. It is best to contact me to discuss this further.
