Do you struggle with Dutch? Do you want to improve your grammar, learn to write better, strengthen your reading skills, or get support for school? Then I would be happy to help you!

As a Master's student in English and French Language and Literature with over 4.5 years of tutoring experience, I offer personal guidance to pupils, students, and adults of various levels.

My lessons are fully tailored to your needs, goals, and learning style. Together, we work on grammar, spelling, vocabulary, reading comprehension, writing skills, speaking skills, and exam preparation. Whether you need support for school, want to improve your Dutch, or gain more confidence in the language, I will guide you step by step.

I believe that everyone can learn when they receive the right support. That is why I create a positive and motivating learning environment where making mistakes is allowed, asking questions is encouraged, and personal growth takes center stage.

I tutor primary and secondary school pupils, higher education students, and adults who want to improve their Dutch.

Together we work towards better results, more self-confidence, and a strong command of Dutch!
Extra information
It is important to me that students feel safe to ask questions and make mistakes. Therefore, I create a positive learning environment where motivation, self-confidence, and personal guidance are central.

For the first lesson, we discuss the goals, difficulties, and expectations together, so that the guidance can be fully tailored to the student's needs.

Keep a small notepad with you during class. I will often ask you to take notes.

About Me
Hello! My name is Taniya.

What I love most about teaching is not only helping students achieve better results, but also watching them gain confidence in themselves along the way. It is incredibly rewarding to see a student understand something they once believed they could never learn. Witnessing that progress is one of the most fulfilling aspects of teaching for me.

I strongly believe that everyone is capable of learning when given the right support and guidance. That is why I take a personalized approach, adapting each lesson to the student's individual needs, learning pace, and learning style. No two students are the same, and therefore no two lessons are the same.

When a student tells me, “I can't do this,” I often reply, “You can't do it yet.” With the right support, practice, and motivation, I am convinced that every student can improve and grow. Making mistakes is a natural and essential part of the learning process.

My lessons are personalized, structured, and motivating. I combine a supportive approach with clear expectations, creating an environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, making mistakes, and challenging themselves to reach their full potential.

After more than 4.5 years of tutoring experience, what continues to motivate me most is seeing the progress my students make. I am currently working with a student who achieves the highest grades in French in his class. Moments like these remind me why I love teaching: helping students realize that they are often capable of far more than they think.
Education
I am currently completing a Master's degree in English and French Linguistics and Literature. Throughout my studies, I have developed a strong foundation in language, communication, literature, and linguistics, with a particular interest in sociolinguistics. My research focuses on the relationship between language, identity, society, and communication.

As part of my Master's programme, I will also continue my studies in France, where I will further deepen my knowledge of the French language and culture.

In addition to my university studies, I am currently completing an internationally recognized 250-hour Level 5 TEFL qualification (Teaching English as a Foreign Language). This programme allows me to further develop my knowledge of language acquisition, teaching methodology, and effective instructional strategies for learners from diverse backgrounds and with different learning needs.
Experience / Qualifications
I began tutoring in 2021, and what started as a part-time activity has since grown into a genuine passion. Over the past 4.5 years, I have worked with students of different ages, levels, and backgrounds, both online and in person. My goal is not only to help students improve their academic performance, but also to develop effective study skills and greater self-confidence.

Throughout the years, I have gained experience working with students in mainstream education as well as learners with ADHD, concentration difficulties, and other specific learning needs. These experiences have taught me the importance of adopting a flexible and personalized approach tailored to each student's individual needs.

In addition, I have been volunteering for the past two years as a homework tutor and learning support mentor for a non-profit organization. In this role, I support children from socially vulnerable families and migrant backgrounds with their schoolwork, language development, and study skills. This experience has further strengthened my passion for education and reinforced my belief in the importance of providing every student with personalized and supportive guidance.

Welcome to my page!

I offer private Dutch lessons for non-native speakers (NT2). All levels are welcome!

Several issues can be dealt with:

- Grammar
- Spelling
- Conversation (with pronunciation exercises)
- Focusing on the tasks within your field where you need Dutch
- ...

I am a dynamic teacher and I think it is important to put the student at the center of my lessons. We link back as much as possible to the professional and/or personal life of the student. The needs and objectives of every student are different. Therefore, the first lesson is very important to detect it. Based on this, we can then discuss various themes. The focus is really on activating the student.

I am flexible and especially free in the evenings. Be sure to contact me to check when we can schedule a lesson.

I teach (basic) Dutch to (young) adults who speak other languages. The purpose of the lesson is to be able to have easy and simple conversations in daily life. In addition, there is also practice on language comprehension and written language production. We practice Dutch on the basis of role plays, audio clips and newspaper articles. Also people who already have some knowledge of Dutch are more than welcome to join. During the first lesson we will discuss your requirements so that I can adapt my lessons accordingly.

As a graduated speech therapist, I have already completed several internships where I worked intensively with children who experienced various learning disabilities. Through my internships, I have gained extensive experience in working with children with various learning disabilities, such as dyslexia, articulation disorders, language disorders and more. My experience and education enable me to make a valuable contribution to the cognitive development and learning process of these children.

Every child is unique and deserves an individualized approach, focused on both qualities and challenges. In my approach it is also crucial to create a supportive and positive learning environment for the child. In addition, I think it is important to also involve the parent(s)/educator(s) in the learning process.

I am committed to helping your child reach their full potential!
If you would like to have an initial introductory meeting, this is certainly possible. We can also discuss the expectations of the tutoring(s).

Hola!

Would you like to learn Spanish in an interactive way with a focus on speaking? Do you love Latin American culture as much as I do? Say no more!

We first look at where you are now and what you would like to achieve and I adjust my lesson based on that. Having lived in Ecuador, I know all too well how important it is to be truly immersed in a language. That's why I think practice is very important: talking about your interests! Because... one learns by doing :D

Not: pure theory and rules while sitting down
Do: theory and practice - we chat a lot and get to work with photos, music, cooking, etc...

The lessons are standard at my home in Ghent Center (negotiable in Aalter). Due to training, I will not be available one Thursday and Friday per month until January '25. The other weeks and on Saturdays.
