Dutch Language, Culture, Tutoring and Test Preparation

This class is to help those studying Dutch at various levels. I'm currently a student of Modern Languages at university, and I was brought up in the Netherlands and have studied it to a high level of fluency.

The focus of this class is to improve fluency in a friendly and relaxing setting, as well as improving technical aspects like grammar at the student's pace. All levels are welcome from absolute beginner to advanced. My goal is to get students to reach a high level of language without feeling pressured or overworked, and to get them comfortable in using the language with native speakers in everyday settings.

About Me

I am currently a student studying Modern Languages, namely Spanish, German and Dutch.

I have been interested in teaching for a long time and I am currently a Language Ambassador with my university. What this means is that I go into schools and talk with children and teenagers about the importance of language learning, as well as devising lesson plans and activities to help them with their language development.

As a teacher I try to get my students to relax as much as possible and learn languages with little pressure. Homework can be set if the student requires it. I try to tailor lessons to each student's individual need and requirement so that they can achieve their linguistic goals at their pace.

I am also saving up for my TEFL qualification, which I hope to achieve next year.

Experience / Qualifications

Through this class I hope to help strengthen and refine the student's English skills. This class will be flexible and catered to the student's needs, whether that be test preparation, grammar, CV help or just general chats to improve your English! I am a native English speaker looking for more experience teaching and tutoring before I start by TEFL course. This course will be challenging and vary according to the student, but a typical class will consist of a chat, followed by a grammar topic, followed by a pre-set homework assignment discussion. Example of homework may be to write a short essay, or to read an article. All levels welcome!

Secondary teacher, bilingual FR-NL and graduated in interpretation gives private lessons in Dutch and English
The methodology chosen for my private lessons adapts to the specific needs of the student, from the youngest (learning to read) to the most experienced: preparation for an exam, a trip abroad, a reorientation professional, ... the courses can vary from a conversation table to a more academic structure emphasizing grammar, conjugation and vocabulary, or still be based on the theme of a particular professional sector.

Mahmood
Dutch Classes for Expats / Basic Civil Integration Exam
Hello! I’m Mahmood and I currently live in Gouda (South-Holland). I came to The Netherlands some time ago. As an Expat I know how tough it is to learn a new language, especially the Dutch language with its tough pronunciations and sentence structures. Being an Expat I understand much better what the challenges are that other Expats needs to go through to learn Dutch I am specialized in preparing Expats and other immigrants for the Basic Civil Integration Examination (Basisexamen Inburgering). I can also teach about the Dutch social culture and History of The Netherlands. Also I teach Dutch till A2 level or to the people who like to learn Dutch as a hobby. I teach one on one as well as to Groups (I provide discount for Groups). What can I teach you? : - Read and Write in Dutch - Sound like a Native Speaker - Participate in Basic Conversations and Use Daily Phrases - Understand and Pick Up on Basic Conversations My method of teaching: i) Starting discussion At the start, we will discuss your level and objectives. This way I can efficiently give you the help that you need. ii) Open communication I have an open way of teaching in which I encourage students to keep telling me what their difficulties are or where they would like to improve. In my experience, this saves a lot of time and also makes the lessons more fun. iii) Simplify instead of complicate I am good at listening and understanding why students are having difficulties with certain issues. The thing in which I’m best is explaining complicated things in a simple way.

Carola
Dutch conversation for kids and adults, to read, to write and understand the language.
In our class we will be relaxed, I will help you with the Dutch conversation, the grammar, reading (like an article or a topic what I will give you). I will help students for beginners-lower-intermediate level. After every lesson I will give you homework for the next lesson. Between the two lessons you can always ask me a question about the subject what we’ve discussed. If you have a subject what you’d like to learn about the Dutch language, let me know. I’m looking forward to see you in my class.

Marcel
Dynamic Dutch courses with a smiling native speaker ;-)
I use several methods which are specially conceived to teach Dutch to people who have a different mother tongue. I really like to use methods out of the ordinary like role games or methods with which you learn while playing. All these adapted to the student's situation of course. As I learned myself a couple of other languages, it is easy for me to detect difficulties a student can encounter and adapt the way of learning. I can teach in English, French, German and Russian.

Rosemarie

Carolina
Teaching children until the age of 11 years old playfully Dutch
Teaching children is almost "an art" Not everyone is able to place him or herself in the mind of a child and that is just so important! I teach playfully and at the same time they learn without really realizing they are in a lesson! I do this with diverse lesson material such as pictures, video's, and we are also practicing songs together. Did I make you curious, come take a look and see if your child is liking my way of teaching! Greetings Carolina.

Astrid
Dutch lessons for young professionals as well as academic/university support
Dutch is my mother tongue, I am Dutch and I suggest you improve your level of Dutch by focusing on conversation - pronunciation - learning to express yourself well - convincing shyness to speak. Of course also academic support - explanation of grammar - reading and understanding texts - writing and editing. Preparing for job interviews, raising the level of Dutch for professional use to a higher level, working with university students to prepare for their Dutch exams etc etc. I adapt my lessons to the needs of each student. With advanced students we discuss the news based on newspaper articles. I speak fluent French, English, and Italian. I am a lawyer by training with 30 years of experience in international business. The ultimate goal of my lessons: to love Dutch and prepare for your future!
