Learning to cook vegan and vegetarian in a light-hearted way

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Have you been interested in learning to make delicious and filling meals without animal products, but not sure where to start?
Well, I'm here to help!
I trained as a professional chef in Los Angeles and ran kitchens for 12 years, both on the west coast of the states and in Amsterdam. Throughout my career I was invested in making vegetarian and vegan cooking a staple of every restaurant I worked in, and showing people how nutritious and delicious this ethical diet can be.
I have also spent years working with farmers and market gardeners as well as in supermarkets focusing on understanding where food comes from.
Additionally, as a flexitarian for almost 20 years (I eat animal products a few times a year) I am well-versed in how to build a healthy diet and save money and time!
I'd love to work with you to feel confident about using new products and expanding your understanding of nutrition and cooking techniques from the vegan and vegetarian kitchen.
I can also give group lessons and family classes

About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Hey there! I am Liz and I'm from the US, but I've been living and working in the Netherlands for 15 years.
As an executive chef and later a campaign manager I've had years of practice in training folks for all sorts of things, a task which I very much enjoy! For me sharing knowledge about food is super exciting, and I love engaging with people who are curious, who ask questions and share their stories with me as well. I believe communication, so asking questions, sharing personal anecdotes, etc., is so important for learning. The more links we can make in our own minds the better we retain information, and the more fun it can be to learn together!

Education

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I have an associates degree in culinary arts. So I studied full time not only practical techniques but also nutrition, the history of food, and maths relating to running a kitchen inside an appropriate budget

Whether you do it for yourself or for your loved ones, cooking is an art meant to bring pleasure and joy.

Guide you through some classic and more niche preparations of Italian cuisine 2. Introduce you to the sort of sensibility you need to develop to start create on your own ***ABOUT THE COURSE*** Lessons are held conveniently at your place and the course can be tailored to your interests, experience and preferences. We can choose together the recipes to prepare or you can leave the decision to me, in that case I will consider the seasonality, the market offer and I will follow the inspiration of the moment. We can also go to shop for groceries together as it all starts with choosing good ingredients. ***ABOUT ME*** Cooking and good food are life-long passions that I have always experienced in practice, through taste, discovery and personal sensibility.

Burcu
BA and MA history graduate to help with history lessons and additionally cooking
Hi! As a history student, I’ve developed strong study skills and effective methods for breaking down complex topics, which I now adapt to help my students learn in a way that suits them best. While I don’t have formal teaching experience, my academic journey has given me a solid foundation in research, organisation, and clear communication—all of which I bring to my lessons. I will design my lessons to be tailored and interactive. In the first session, I like to start with a conversation to understand your goals, what you’re currently working on, and where you feel you need the most help. This allows me to prepare resources and materials specifically for your needs, ensuring our time together is as productive as possible. My teaching method focuses on creating a structured yet flexible format. Typically, I am thinking to begin by explaining key concepts or reviewing material you might be struggling with. From there, we’ll work on practice questions—some we’ll tackle together, and others you’ll try on your own to build confidence and independence. This approach not only helps reinforce what you’ve learned but also ensures that you feel supported throughout the process. (If you have school homework, we can work through it during our lessons, ensuring you fully understand the material. Additionally, I can provide extra practice papers or assignments for you to complete between sessions if you’d like to deepen your understanding.) I’m here to support you every step of the way. My ultimate goal is to help you feel more confident in your abilities, whether we’re working on understanding challenging topics, completing assignments, or preparing for exams. Learning doesn’t have to be stressful—it can be engaging and even enjoyable with the right approach! Apart from being a history graduate I’m passionate about sharing the rich and diverse flavors of Turkish, Cypriot, and Greek cuisine! Growing up in Cyprus, I developed a deep love for the culinary traditions of the region, and now I enjoy teaching others how to recreate these delicious dishes at home. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned cook, I’m here to guide you with easy-to-follow recipes, tips, and techniques. From hearty stews to fresh mezes, I aim to bring the vibrant tastes of the Mediterranean to your table.
