SOME REVIEWS:
Chevaan:
Catherina is without a doubt THE best tutor we know. She is exceptionally committed and is always looking to inspire her students. She has consistently gone above and beyond the call of duty to help our son with his German. She provides excellent study material, engaging homework and follows up to ensure that her students have really grasped the subject matter.

Brian:
Catharina has been teaching our 11 year old daughter for the past few months and we are very impressed with her excellent progress in this short space of time.
Catharina has developed a very good rapport with our daughter and is patient and knowledgeable. Our daughter always looks forward to her next lesson and even hands in her homework on time! We would highly recommend Catharina to anyone who would like to learn a new language.

Afeisha:
Very professional, friendly and informative. I feel like Catharina will help me to reach where I need to. She doesn't just teach from the book, she teaches in a way that will allow you to blend in with ease. I am excited to learn more from her.

Egle:
Great tutor! Catharina adapts lessons to ones needs, gives very clear explanations and most importantly works on the pronunciation of the language. With every lesson she provides lesson material.

REVIEWS:
Amina: We miss her voice in the house. Our daughter had her first school day on Monday and had a wonderful time. She’s been loving going to school and has made some friends already. The feedback I’ve gotten from most teachers ( and Noor) is that she understands most of what is being said. Thank you for supporting her and getting her up to speed enough to understand the language. Your effort (and of course hers) is evident in the confidence she has shown at school this week and I really grateful for the positive influence you have had during the learning process.

Chevaan: Catherina is without a doubt THE best tutor we know. She is exceptionally committed and is always looking to inspire her students.

Excellent session. I am fully satisfied with the approach that Catharina took, where she first tried to understand the level and needs of the student and tailored the class for the student.
Catharina is an extremely skilled and professional teacher and I can only highly recommend her lessosns.
The lessons were perfect. She was able to support me in every domain whether it was vocabulary, grammar or other things I needed help with. She is always prepared before every lesson and takes time to review work inbetween lessons. Great teacher!

Dutch - ITNA preparation for non-native speakers: goal-oriented and intensive
Prepare in an efficient, intensive way for the ITNA (Interuniversity Language Test Dutch), based on tailor-made exercises. We practice together on language in use, grammar and vocabulary, gap texts, structuring exercises, dictation, presentations and argumentation. Would you like to learn Dutch at a different level (A1 - C1) or are you a native speaker with a specific question, be sure to check out my other lesson "Dutch for non-native speakers and native speakers".

Irene
Dutch language and culture, experienced teacher in Dutch schools
Goedendag! Are you interested in the Dutch language? Just for fun or for your future studies or job in the Netherlands? Then I can help you! As a Dutch native I can inform you about all you want to know about the Dutchies! Ik hoop je snel te spreken!

Bo
English and Dutch Classes (both online or in person)
Hi there! My name is Bo. I’m 26 years old and originally from the Netherlands. Dutch is my native language, but I grew up with English as a second language. I’ve completed two degrees in English and also I have worked in English, so I can say it comes naturally to me. I’m passionate about learning languages myself, so I’d love to help you improve your Dutch or English. I offer both conversation and grammar classes. If you’re preparing for a specific situation in English, this is the perfect way to get ready and build your confidence. I’m open to teaching all ages, and I also have experience caring for children, so if needed, I can combine childcare with teaching them English or Dutch. Looking forward to meeting you! See you soon!

3 certifications of excellence in Dutch, 6 years of university language proficiency, certified interpreter and translator
○ I support students full time, it's my job (it's not a hobby) ○ ✦ Guarantee of success, 98% of exams validated from 2017 to 2023, 95% from 2015 to 2017. Your success is important to me, I make it a real personal matter ✦ Dear future students/parents of students: Dutch is indeed poorly taught in French-speaking schools. But, yes, we can learn to appreciate it (Or stop being afraid of it?) My classes are often punctuated with laughter, I am not a fan of the strict-rigid atmosphere of some schools. Nevertheless, I make it a point of honor to ensure that this benevolence does not affect the learning and progress of the student. ✦ Effective and pragmatic teaching technique ✦ I combine learning grammar (essential for beginners) with numerous practical exercises and role-playing situations to ensure that the student will be able to cope in the real world. Above all, I transform language into a kind of game/code that must be deciphered. It is then enough to "grasp" the logic I have a plethora of paper materials but work mainly using PowerPoints and other fun and interactive tools projected on my TV/computer screen when the course is held online. ✎✎ 2 theory syllabuses; 2 exercise syllabuses provided free of charge with our courses ✦ We are a team, don't skimp on contacts ✦ ■ I can be reached by email, text message, or WhatsApp: for your questions, clarifications, requests between classes ■ Follow-up for parents (how to manage a student who is failing/having academic difficulties, how to help them in a practical way, reports of our courses). ■ My courses are tax deductible, I can provide invoices

Enjoy learning Dutch
As a certified NT2 teacher (Dutch for speakers of other languages), I respond to your wishes in learning the Dutch language. We first look together at where you are, what your goals are and how you like to learn. The most important thing for me is that learning the language is fun and that you can use the language with confidence. I have several years of experience in teaching both young people and adults and people with fear of failure/speaker anxiety. As a certified Dutch teacher I will adapt to your wishes when it comes to learning the Dutch language. We will first talk about your language level, what to start with, what your goals are, and in which ways you would like to learn. For me it is most important that you will experience learning Dutch as enjoyable, and that you will be able to use/start using the language with confidence. I have taught Dutch for several years to both children and adults, and people with a fear of failure/fear of speaking.

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.

Dutch lessons for children and adults / Basis Nederlands voor anderstaligen (beginners) and children (4-9 years). Huiswerkbegeleiding.
Dutch is my native language. I can teach in English, French and German. I am retired and very flexible with my time. The language is native and has the courage to speak English. I have English and Dutch owners. I also speak French and German. I am reserved and flexible with my time.

Dutch language coaching for immigrants: improve your language skills!
Dutch is not an easy language. Certainly not if it is not the first language you learn. To make yourself understood, it is often easiest to fall back on English, but this stagnates your process of mastering the Dutch language. During this coaching session we lay a foundation. We map out your request for help and together we draw up a plan of action. The most important thing is that you feel at ease, that you enjoy the learning process and that you make progress with your language skills. If you purchase a lesson package, you will also receive homework assignments which we will discuss in the following lesson. Because it is tailor-made, the starting age for this class is 4 years and it is suitable for people up to and including retirement age. This lesson is ideal for: • immigrants • children of immigrants Do you have any questions after reading this intro? Feel free to ask!

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.

Dutch lesson for teenagers & adults adjusted to your needs as a student!
Firstly, this lesson ensures that you as a student feel at ease! We will first get to know each other a little bit, and then you can tell me what you expect/want in a lesson, or what you specifically need. Step by step, I will ensure you, that you as a student, will learn the Dutch language. You will come to me for different reasons, for example for an integration exam, or because you live temporarily as an expat in the Netherlands and want to learn the language, others enjoy it as a hobby and others come to the Netherlands for love... There are so many reasons! My lessons are tailored to your wishes, you indicate what you want, and I will help you with it, which will make you feel more at ease. From teenage to adult students, from beginner to advanced and in between, I enjoy teaching my classes all over the world! Curious?! Then I hope to see you in my class! Greetings Carolina

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!
