About Me

Hi!:)
I am a young university student in Amsterdam and have lived in the Netherlands for the last three years. Originally I am German/Namibian, which is why both German and English are my native languages! I have however lived in many different countries, including Namibia, Malawi, Germany and The Netherlands.
I greatly enjoy interacting with people, and am considered a very kind and open person. Some of my hobbies include dancing, painting and basketball. I am curious about anything and everything, but I am currently studying international politics as that was what caught my attention the most :)
I look forward to helping you on your journey to learn the English or German language!

Education

University of Amsterdam: MSc in Conflict Resolution and Governance
Leiden University (Campus Den Haag): Bachelor of Science in International Relations and Organisations (Graduating in 2021)
W. Gymnasium Tübingen (Germany): Abitur (2017)

Experience / Qualifications

I have spent the better part of the last five years tutoring students in all sorts of fields (Maths, English, German, Biology etc.) and have always helped them achieve their goals with maximum satisfaction!

Saniah is really fantastic - my son (14.5 yrs) and I enrolled for '1-1' classes with her, mainly to improve our conversational fluency/ease (our main focus right now), and from even the first few minutes we immediately were at ease, feeling relaxed and open in trying and warming up our German. Saniah kept us challenged, yet not at a frustrating level, and thus very engaged, and was patient in correcting us and helping us to explore the interesting conversations that came up over the two hours of the lesson. Saniah is a very well informed and thoughtful person, with an international and well-travelled background, and we managed to cover a lot of ground exploring interesting and current topics; she also gave us great German book/movie recommendations, plus followed up with adding extra vocab lists and assignments if we wished. We have had only one lesson so far, but are very much looking forward to the next one - certainly exceeded expectations and very happy with the outcome.
Saniah is a very sweet and patient tutor. She is fun to learn with and really puts in the energy and time to make the student experience as best as possible. Definitely worth every cent and more, recommend 100%.
With our world growing to be more connected by the day, English has become an essential language in all areas of life. Whether you wish to find a job, travel or simply consume news, English is an asset. I offer individual tutoring sessions or classes in small groups, as preferred by the students. The lessons will be tailored to your personal goals: do you want to learn the basics? Do you need someone to practice speaking with? Or would you like to improve your writing skills (academic or otherwise)? Anything can be arranged!
German is a language which, while spoken in comparatively few countries, is an immense asset to any person looking to live or work in another country at some point in their lives. While it has the reputation of being a cold and difficult language, I strongly believe that there are many beautiful things about it and encourage anyone with a bit of interest to try and learn it! As such, I offer private tutoring sessions for any level of German, and in any form: they can be one on one, or you can contact me with a friend or a group! Depending on your goals, the class will be tailored to focus on achieving them: if you need to practice speaking, writing, reading - that's what we will do!
Whether you have decided to pick up a new hobby during the COVID-19 induced lockdowns or you have just always been curious about picking up a new skill, painting is a liberating way to get creative! I strongly believe that painting (and art in general) should be about the expression of yourself, in whatever way you feel like. However, a few tips and tricks to get you started and aide your artistic journey may go a long way! Thus this class is for anyone interested in getting to know the basics of painting: what materials should you use? How do you mix paints and colours to get a desired outcome? And for those struggling to decide on an object, an answer to 'what should I even paint?!' As this is a very creative and subjective topic, the classes are tailored to the students' needs and wishes - so if you know nothing about painting, don't worry, we'll get you up to speed in no time!

The more detail, the better.

Dutch lessons for children
I teach Dutch to children, adapted to the level of the child, the age and the goals that wish to be achieved. The lessons can be given entirely in Dutch, or with explanations and translations in English where necessary (if the child speaks English). With young children I often use cheerful images, games and songs to learn the language in a playful way. From experience, this also works fine online, via video calls. If you send me a message, we can discuss the options together. Tambien puedo dar las clases con traducciones en español.

Italian language and culture with Italian high school teacher and writer
Hello, I'm an Italian high school teacher and a published writer. I have studied Literature and languages in Italy, UK and France and I have a long experience in tutoring students. I adapt my classes depending upon the specific needs of my students, depending on their knowledge and goals. I generally dedicate part of the class to teach grammar in an interactive way, following a book and proposing exercise I create myself to the students. Then I dedicate part of the class to the conversation, so that listening and speaking skills of the student can improve. If the student is at an intermediate or advanced level, I give them more insight about the evolution of Italian language, making reference to Latin and to Italian literature. To make the class more interesting, I often talk about Italian culture related to language.
