Enjoyment of learning
Build self-confidence
Increase performance
I am Yvette Hofman, MSc, a special needs educator, primary school teacher, and mother of three. My passion is supporting children individually, playfully, and with heartfelt care – right where they are in their development.
Originally from the Netherlands, I have worked with children of primary and preschool age in various settings as a qualified special needs educator (Master's degree in Orthopedagogy from Utrecht University). Prior to that, I completed my Bachelor's degree in primary education, which includes teaching and supporting children from age four to twelve.
I work with a solution-oriented approach that focuses on potential rather than weaknesses. Children shouldn't feel like they "can't do something", but instead develop confidence in their abilities. That's precisely what I support them in doing.
I offer support in three languages: German, English, and Dutch, which allows me to work individually and with cultural sensitivity.
My goal: To empower children to forge their own path!
About me
How it works
Get to know each other & build trust
In a free initial consultation, we get to know each other and find out what your child truly needs.
Learn in a positive and relaxed way
Each session is tailored to your child's needs – with joy, flexibility, and curiosity.
Exchange & Celebrate Successes
After each session, I provide brief feedback. This keeps motivation and joy in learning alive.
Mehr als Nachhilfe
Manchmal braucht ein Kind mehr als klassische Nachhilfe. In meiner Lernbegleitung geht es nicht nur darum, Lernstoff zu üben, sondern auch darum, Stärken zu entdecken, Selbstvertrauen aufzubauen und mit Freude zu lernen.
Dabei steht die individuelle Entwicklung des Kindes immer im Mittelpunkt.

Playfully prepare for the start of school
I playfully support fine motor skills, concentration, and phonological awareness – for a confident start with numbers, letters, and small moments of success.

Learning a new language is fun!
In small groups or individually, children experience language through games, movement, and everyday situations.

Instead of pressure, more motivation
I support children individually in reading, writing, maths, and learning – with patience, structure, and positive reinforcement.

I help children understand their emotions, handle frustration, and find new strategies – together with their parents.
