  • Description

    Hello, my name is Jitse. I am a 21 year old university mathematics student. Looking to get my hands dirty and a break from studies.

    I have always loved being outdoors, ever since I was a child. Rough and tumble play was my game. In later years this translated into becoming very disciplined in a verity of sports.

    As of my personality:
    I am a very calm and collected person, seeking sanctuary in hard work and nature. Yet I can also have a whole lot of fun. By the meaning that I get out of hard work, I can explode in sudden burst of humour, perhaps enjoying my self a bit much during work. Yet nothing will interfere with effectiveness.
    My thoughts are very analytical, seeking industrious efficiency and effectiveness in everything I undertake.
    I also love to get to know new people, and hear about their lives and learned lessons.

    I like to tutor mathematics to anyone interested.

    feel free to reach out, if you have any further questions about me.
    I look forward to meeting you,
    Jitse

  • More details about your skills

    I have some outdoor bush craft experience and have a very handy eye. Always seeing the simplest and best solutions seamlessly effortless. I will chop wood like a possessed man.

    On DIY projects I have lifelong experience. Be it plumbing an outdoor downspout, building an outdoor pullup bar station. A wooden slant board... All from scratch, planning to full creation.

    As an ex- mathematics University student, I am confidently able to tutor anyone who wishes to know more on the subject of mathematics.

    ***EXPLANATION OF DIY PICTURES***

    You may see some pictures of previous DIY projects that I undertook. Most of them I designed myself as well. Although these may not seem as impressive to someone living on a farm – I have made dozens of these small projects. After a while you get a good feel of: what materials you need, the properties of certain wood, how to handle basic tools… If you ask me to build X, I will have a very good idea of what it takes and will be able to handle myself splendidly. This is all to simply say that I am not a noob at the game of DIY.

    Picture 1° An outdoor salmon ladder (what is a salmon ladder? Don’t worry, just look at it as an advanced pullup station.) I made this one together with my dad. The biggest poles also go into the ground for 90cm and are supported with concrete.

    Picture 2° Outdoor hotel for solitary bees. Made and designed this fully myself. (wood, screws and rope)

    Picture 3° Half open garden shack to store garden equipment. (Please don’t mind the ruble) I will admit that this is mostly my dad’s work, yet I helped him on some parts.

    Picture 4° Wooden slant board. It is made to stand on and do leg exercises on, so it is made like a king (i.e. very sturdy and strong.) Made it myself. (wood and screws)

    I could go on and on, these are just the main ones from last years.

    Cheers!
