🇳🇱 Family-Led Independent Education • The Netherlands

Engineering Education for Everyone

We are a family of software developers living in the Netherlands. We build and maintain Practice Exams in our free time to give students worldwide free access to high-yield practice questions, intuitive visual shortcuts, and full exam simulations.

👨‍👩‍👦 Meet the Family Behind Practice Exams

Each of us works full-time as software engineers at different technology companies across the Netherlands. During our evenings and weekends, we combine our shared love for software performance and mathematical pedagogy to maintain Practice Exams.

👨‍💻

Founder & Lead Architect

Senior Software Engineer

20+ Years Experience • Former DOST Scholar

Having earned a life-changing government science & technology scholarship earlier in his academic journey, he built a 20+ year global career architecting high-performance databases, edge networks, and distributed systems. He founded Practice Exams to pay it forward to the next generation of students aspiring to earn life-changing academic opportunities.

👩‍💻

Co-Architect & Platform Quality

Senior Software Engineer

10+ Years Experience • Residing in NL

With over a decade of enterprise software engineering experience, she oversees system reliability, automated testing pipelines, and responsive mobile architecture. She ensures that tens of thousands of high school and college test-takers experience fast, uninterrupted uptime during intensive exam weekends.

🧑‍💻

Mathematical Pedagogy & Frontend

Software Developer

3+ Years Experience • International Math Gold Medalist

A former Gold Medalist in international mathematics competitions, he specializes in competitive mathematical logic, vector geometry, and algorithm design. He translates complex competition-grade mathematical methods into simple, intuitive visual shortcuts ("diskarte") so everyday students can master word problems and abstract matrices in seconds.

💡 Why We Built Practice Exams

Traditional exam prep is fundamentally broken. Across the globe, high-quality practice exams and question banks are frequently locked behind expensive review-center fees ($200 to $1,000+) or recurring subscription paywalls. Students from ordinary backgrounds are often left with outdated textbooks, incomplete answer keys, or confusing theoretical explanations.

Having personally benefited from academic scholarships and competitive mathematics programs, our family decided to do something about it. We asked: What if we applied modern software engineering standards to create the fastest, cleanest, and most intuitive practice exam platform on the web—completely free?
