How can a neighbourhood have cheaper homes and better-off residents at the same time?
Because the two figures are not describing the same kind of object. Amstel III and Bullewijk has an average dwelling value of 211,000 euro and an average income of 37,400; Gein has 344,000 and 30,600. In Amstel III all 2,595 dwellings are rented and none is owner-occupied, households average 1.2 people and 79 percent of them hold one person. In Gein 41 percent of homes are owned and households average 2.0. The word dwelling is covering a rented unit for one young adult in one row and a family house in the next, so averaging the column compares two different things.
Where are the missing residents of Amstel III?
This page does not say, and it is careful not to guess. Multiplying 2,805 households by an average of 1.2 accounts for about 3,366 of the 5,440 residents, and even at 1.25, the highest the published 1.2 could round from, only 3,506. So at least 1,900 people there are not in a private household. The district holds a large academic hospital and a great deal of recently built rented accommodation, and nothing published that was read here says which of those explains the gap.
What are the two neighbourhoods on this page?
Amstel III and Bullewijk, with 5,440 residents across seven buurten including the AMC and Hoge Dijk on 500 hectares of land, and Gein, with 11,078 residents across four buurten named Gein 1 to Gein 4 on 183 hectares. They were chosen for how unlike each other they are. The rest of the district, including Venserpolder, Holendrecht, Reigersbos, Nellestein, Ganzenhoef, Geerdinkhof and Kantershof, is named on this page without figures.
How long has Zuidoost been a district?
Since 1987, when it was established as a stadsdeel with a directly elected stadsdeelraad, which makes it the longest-standing of the eight. After 19 March 2014 it continued to exist as a stadsdeel while the form of government attached to it changed, and since 24 March 2022 it has been divided into four areas: Bijlmer-West, Bijlmer-Centrum, Bijlmer-Oost and Gaasperdam.
Is the class taught in Dutch?
No, English is the language of the lesson from the first minute to the last. Four Dutch school words are held back from that rule, groep and havo and vwo and profielkeuze, on the grounds that a child already knows them and an English rendering would only need turning back again. Nothing is offered in a Dutch edition.
What hours suit a family in Zuidoost?
For part of the year the teacher is three and a half hours ahead and for the rest four and a half, a difference produced entirely by the Dutch clock changing while the Indian one does not. In practice that leaves every afternoon after school, every early evening, and the whole of both weekend days. One repeating hour is chosen in the free lesson and then left alone.
Why not use a class nearer home?
For most things, do. The specific difficulty is that a group of five to ten learners at one particular level in one particular subject needs a pool to draw from, and this district is two very different populations rather than one: a wijk with 235 children under fifteen sits beside one with 1,605. Groups here are formed on ability from across the world, which is the only arrangement in which a narrow level actually fills.
Is there a Modern Age Coders classroom in Amsterdam-Zuidoost?
No, and none is claimed in the Bijlmer, elsewhere in Amsterdam or anywhere in the Netherlands. All teaching is live and online and needs a laptop or desktop, working audio, a current browser and a connection that holds. The telephone number shown on this page is an Indian one and is described as such.
What do Amsterdam-Zuidoost coding classes cost?
The first lesson is free. After it, group tuition is USD 100 a month for two live lessons a week, normally eight across the month, in a group of five to ten learners. One-to-one tuition is USD 150 a month at the same frequency with a single teacher. Course, format, recurring hour and availability are all confirmed before anything is paid.
How many learners are in a group?
Five to ten, matched on level, pace and goal rather than on age, school or neighbourhood. One-to-one means a single learner with a single teacher. When no group at the right level is running, a family can take one-to-one lessons or wait for the next group to form.
