Hello! My name is Duetta Pilgrim, and I am thrilled to introduce myself as a dedicated tutor based in Amsterdam. If you’re seeking personalized and effective tutoring services for your child aged 4 to 12, in Amsterdam and environs (or online), you’ve come to the right place.

International Expertise in English Language Education

With a passion for education and a specialization in English language instruction, I bring a wealth of international experience to my tutoring practice. Having worked extensively within the International Baccalaureate (IB) program, I am well-versed in its curriculum and methodologies. This allows me to provide targeted support that aligns with the educational goals and needs of students studying within this program.

Teaching and Learning Support Experience in International Schools

My journey in education has taken me to various prestigious International Schools in the Netherlands. Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working as both a teacher and a learning support teacher. This multifaceted experience has given me valuable insights into different learning styles and strategies, enabling me to tailor my approach to meet the unique requirements of each student.

Born in Trinidad and Tobago, Culturally Diverse Perspectives

Originating from the vibrant and culturally diverse country of Trinidad and Tobago, I bring an inclusive and global perspective to my tutoring sessions. Embracing diversity and multiculturalism, I understand the importance of creating an inclusive learning environment that celebrates each student’s unique background and experiences.

Inclusiveness and Special Needs Students: Embracing Every Learner

At Hummingbird Education, inclusiveness is at the heart of what I do. I strongly believe that every child deserves access to quality education and individualized support, regardless of their abilities or challenges. I am committed to creating a welcoming and inclusive learning environment where all students feel valued, respected, and empowered.

Understanding the unique needs of special needs students is a priority for me. Throughout my teaching and learning support experience in International Schools, I have had the privilege of working with students with diverse learning profiles. This has provided me with invaluable knowledge and strategies to effectively support special needs students in their academic journey.

Whether your child has specific learning disabilities, attention disorders, or other special needs, I am here to provide the personalized attention and tailored instruction they require. I will work closely with you and any professionals involved to develop a comprehensive plan that addresses their individual needs and fosters their growth and development.

By leveraging evidence-based practices, assistive technologies, and differentiated instruction, I ensure that each student receives the support they need to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally. I understand the importance of patience, empathy, and flexibility when working with special needs students, and I am dedicated to creating a safe and nurturing space where they can succeed.

No matter the learning challenges your child faces, rest assured that they will receive the utmost care and attention during our tutoring sessions. Together, we will celebrate their strengths, identify areas for growth, and set achievable goals that will help them reach their full potential.

I am here to support your child every step of the way, advocating for their needs and providing the tools and resources necessary for their success. Let’s work together to ensure that every student, regardless of their abilities, receives the quality education they deserve.

Inclusiveness and special needs students are a crucial part of my tutoring practice, and I am excited to contribute to their educational journey.

Individualized and Small Group Instruction

At Hummingbird Education, I believe in the power of personalized instruction. I am committed to delivering high-quality tutoring sessions tailored to meet the specific needs and learning styles of each student. By working closely with individuals or in small groups, I can provide the attention and support necessary for optimal growth and progress. I can tutor either at your home, at my home or online.
