An experienced Dutch teacher is happy to help you get started with the Dutch language!

Is Dutch not your native language? And could you use some help learning the Dutch language? Then you are very welcome. I provide NT2 tutoring to:
- people who are already taking an NT2 course but need extra support;
- people who are studying independently for the NT2 State Exam (1 or 2), but would still like some extra explanation or feedback, or would like to practice certain skills together occasionally;
- people who no longer need to take the NT2 State Exam, but who do want to improve their Dutch language skills;
- ISK students who would like extra help with Dutch.
I can help you raise your language level to various levels: A1, A2, B1, B2, or C1.

Whether it involves listening or reading, speaking or writing, you will soon notice that it comes more easily to you. Talking about everyday things and topics that interest you makes learning fun. And through exercises, you expand your vocabulary and learn to write and speak smoothly flowing sentences.
I work with the NT2 methods from Thieme Meulenhoff: Zebra plus (for young people aged 12-18), IJsbreker plus (for practically trained adults), and Code plus (for theoretically trained adults).


Hope to see you again!

Experienced tutor likes to help you with your Dutch language skills!

Are you not a native speaker of the Dutch language? And do you want some help with learning the language? You are really welcome. I give extra lessons NT2 (Dutch as second language) for:
- people who are following a NT2 course already, but would like to have some support;
- people who are learning for the State Exam NT2 (level 1 or 2), but would like to have some additional explanation or feedback or like to practice specific skills together;
- people who don't have to do the State Exam NT2 (any more), but would like to improve their Dutch language skills;
- ISK students who would like to have some support with their Dutch language skills.
I can help you to improve your language level to different levels: A1, A2, B1, B2 or C1.

If it's about listening or reading, speaking or writing, you will notice soon that it becomes easier for you. Talking about everyday things and things you are interested in, makes learning fun. And through exercises you will expand your vocabulary and you will learn to write and pronounce smooth sentences.
I work with Thieme Meulenhoff's NT2 methods: Zebra plus (for young people aged 12-18), IJsbreker plus (for adults with practical training), and Code plus (for adults with theoretical training).
Tip: as an employee, you can ask your employer if it is possible to reimburse (part of) the costs of the lessons.

Hope to see you!

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!

A qualified language coach with 25 years of experience offers intensive Dutch lessons in a small class or online.

I give many Dutch NT2 lessons to expats and in preparation for an integration exam.
Specialized in guiding for the State Exam I and II. Special exam coach.

In January 2025 I will also start with groups again. We have a great classroom in the center of Rotterdam, near metro station Beurs, lessons with small homogeneous groups (little difference in level).

We mainly go for quality and not just running a lesson. I am really involved in the progress of the student. In addition to teaching, I want to do everything to really motivate students to take the next step. That is my strength!

You can also choose the online lesson package with Whereby, Teams or Zoom in a comfortable way. Online classes are one-on-one or maximum one-on-two, for better results.

My English is fluent, as well as Portuguese and Spanish. I understand the difficulties of overcoming barriers for Latin languages and for expats in general, as I have also been an expat.

Online lessons last 75 minutes once a week for 10 weeks to reach a higher level.

This is the normal speed. Including exam training (A-2 or Staatsexamen) and exam at the end.

Intensive training ? That can also be done in five to ten full days, I am used to giving these very intensive trainings to CEOs or managers who want it faster and more intensive ... all lessons within 3 or 4 weeks. Based on the European system A-1, A-2, B-1, B-2 and C-1

As soon as students want to further improve their knowledge of Dutch, I always advise and coach them to take the State Exam I or II, the only formal Certificate in this country, recognized by employers and universities.

I will try to switch to conversation after a few lessons, to put your knowledge into practice as soon as possible. Don't get too caught up in the grammar.

Teaching is my ultimate passion and even after 25 years it feels like the first time and students always feel inspired to overcome the obstacles.

I also teach you about Dutch social culture, which is intertwined in the course and is strongly related to the language.

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.

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.

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.
