Tutoring Experience

For the past 12 years, I've dedicated myself to teaching IB ESS and mentoring students through the Extended Essay process. My career began in Warsaw at an international school, where I quickly developed a reputation for fostering critical thinking and environmental awareness among my students. Later, I moved to Amsterdam to further my career, where I continued to guide students through the intricate demands of the IB curriculum. My students consistently achieve top grades, with many securing places at prestigious universities across Europe and beyond. My deep understanding of the IB ESS curriculum, coupled with my experience as an Extended Essay Coordinator, ensures that my students receive top-tier guidance.

My approach to tutoring is highly student-centered, focusing on nurturing curiosity and promoting independent thinking. I create a supportive and engaging environment where students feel confident in expressing their ideas and exploring complex environmental issues. Through personalized sessions, I connect theoretical concepts to real-world applications, particularly within the context of their Extended Essays. My emphasis on critical analysis, structured argumentation, and environmental awareness helps students reach their full potential, ensuring they are well-prepared for both their exams and future academic endeavors.

Testimonials

"Lidia was an incredible mentor during my IB journey. Her passion for Environmental Systems and Societies (ESS) was truly contagious. She made complex topics understandable and always linked them to real-world issues, which made learning so much more engaging. Thanks to her guidance, I not only achieved a 7 in ESS but also wrote an Extended Essay that I'm genuinely proud of. Her support was invaluable, especially when I was stressed about deadlines. She kept me motivated and confident throughout the process."
