Nice to meet you; I'm Matthew! I hold an MA in Classics and Ancient Civilisations and a BA in History and International Studies. Based in The Hague, I offer specialized tutoring in History, helping students develop a deep understanding of historical events, themes, and perspectives. My academic background focuses on the Roman Empire and frontier regions during the Late Iron Age, with extensive experience in source analysis, historical interpretation, and evidence-based argumentation.

My teaching style is structured, discussion-driven, and tailored to each student's individual needs. I encourage students to move beyond memorization by understanding how historical arguments are formed, how sources are evaluated, and how evidence is used to support interpretations. Lessons focus on building critical thinking, analytical skills, and a strong grasp of historical concepts.

A key part of my approach is helping students improve their academic writing and examination techniques. I provide guidance on essay structure, argument development, source evaluation, revision strategies, and effective historical writing. By strengthening these skills, students gain confidence and achieve greater academic success.

I work with students at various levels and adapt lessons to their goals, whether they are preparing for examinations, improving grades, or developing a broader understanding of history. My aim is to create a supportive and intellectually engaging learning environment where students feel confident asking questions, exploring different viewpoints, and developing their own informed historical perspectives.

I tailor every lesson to the individual student, as no single teaching style works for everyone. Some students learn best through discussion and debate, while others benefit from structured guidance, visual breakdowns, or focused writing practice. My sessions adapt to each student’s strengths, confidence, and goals, using source analysis, essay workshops, and critical thinking exercises to keep learning engaging, interactive, and academically rigorous.
