Valentina Genete Soeters

I am a committed education professional and advocate, driven by a passion for fostering learning environments that encourage curiosity, creativity, and student-centred growth. With extensive experience in diverse governmental and non-governmental organisations across Europe, I bring a distinctive approach that blends traditional pedagogy with social participative learning and self-discovery techniques. As a disability advocate, my task is to break down the barriers to learning by creating individualised learning and educational plans and fragment and adapt the learning content, so that it better supports the individual learning needs. Supporting children and young people to achieve their full potential in both academic or vocational fields is extremely rewarding. In my career, as a teacher and therapist, I have enabled children and youngsters with different learning needs(Autism, Dyslexia, ADHD) to improve their self-esteem and quality of life.
At the heart of my philosophy is the conviction that education should nurture the whole being—intellectually, emotionally, and physically. I incorporate practices such as art therapy, nervous system regulation, mindfulness to equip students with resilience, focus, and a stronger sense of self. By embedding these holistic strategies into my work, I create environments where students can expand on their knowledge and very unique talents.
I teach small groups, students on 1:1 basis and I am also interested in collaborating with companies.
