About Lisa
Hi! Thanks so much for taking a look at my profile. My name is Lisa and I'm a 27-year-old master's graduate. I grew up in the Netherlands (right outside of Amsterdam) and in the U.S. (Boston suburbs). I was raised in both countries and I'm a native Dutch and English speaker. I completed my undergraduate degree at Macalester College in Saint Paul, Minnesota, with a study abroad semester at the University of Edinburgh. I went on to get my Master's Degree in Psychology at the University of London.
My teaching experience is extensive and includes the following roles:
- French teacher at an elementary school in Ghana (on a volunteer program the summer before college)
- ESL tutor at an AmeriCorps-funded immigrant and refugee center in Minneapolis (this was a volunteer position I did for two years during college), where I also assisted clients with citizenship test preparation and interview strategies
- English tutor for elementary school kids at a non-profit for Native American families in Minneapolis (three-month volunteer role during college)
- Teaching Assistant at a school for children's with autism in Saint Paul (one-year internship during college)
- Dutch tutor in London (I started my own tutoring business last year and this is still an ongoing side project)
A bit more about me: I have always loved to write and I'm trying to slowly build a career in journalism. I'm also the co-founder and managing editor at Lamplight, a new London-based arts and culture magazine. I'm juggling quite a few side projects and hoping to grow my tutoring business to allow me to continue exploring these creative avenues. I had a successful Dutch tutoring business in London and now I'm hoping to expand to ESL students in the States.

I would describe my teaching style as enthusiastic, warm, and highly tailored to each student. I have tutored students with a range of proficiencies and of various ages. First, I always try to get a sense of where you are at in terms of ability, then ask what you are hoping to get out of tutoring sessions (are you trying to learn/develop the language for academic purposes, professional purposes, etc.?), and make a teaching plan together. I like the teaching experience to be a collaborative one, in order to ensure your are happy with the direction we are going in. (Also, I want to make sure it's a fun experience for you, as this is such an important part of language learning!)
I offer the following types of classes:
- Pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary building
- Reading comprehension
- Writing skills
- Interview preparation
- Citizenship test preparation
- A combination of any of the above
My first class (30 minutes) is always free.

Lisa is a great tutor. I had experience with other tutors before and Lisa has been my favorite one. She was very reliable and helped me with my confidence speaking and writing in English. She is patient and very friendly! She will make you feel comfortable and I highly recommend her!
