I am assistant professor at the Department of Educational and Family Studies at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, and member of the LEARN! research institute.
Research
The aim of my research is to improve the quality of primary education and daycare. I study the effect of interventions directed at shared book reading, classroom talk, play, and physical activity on children’s cognitive and social development. In my research, I closely collaborate with students, primary school teachers, and teacher trainers.
Research projects
Teaching

I supervise several theses and internships and I am member of the educational committee.
