Nederlands voor anderstaligen (Dutch for foreign language speakers)

Translated by GoogleSee original

From 48 C$ /h

My name is Guy and I live in Delft, The Netherlands. I started tutoring on Preply in December 2022 and I’ve gained a lot of experience since then. Apart from tutoring, I work as a journalist for a local newspaper and as a text writer. I’ve found that I like to work with the Dutch language in a professional way, also by tutoring.

Most of the classes I give are conversation classes, with topics ranging from buying a bread in the bakery for beginning students, all the way to conversations about professional and news related topics for advanced students. I help students to gain more knowledge about the Dutch language, but above all I help them to become more confident and fluent in Dutch conversation. I teach students of all levels from beginner to advanced and I focus mainly on adults. Teenagers are welcome too.

Beginning students need a lot more explanation than advanced students, so I adjust my lessons according to the level and interest of the student. To advanced students I only explain grammar every now and then if they want, as I think they benefit mostly from practice.

I sometimes give listening and reading exercises during classes if the student likes this. These exercises can help the student recognize authentic Dutch speech or text better and are adjusted to the student’s level. For students who wish to do homework, I have made many exercises such as gap-fill and translation exercises. I also have a book from which I can give exercises and material to study.

Apart from being a native Dutch speaker, I speak English fluently and some German. I also have a limited command of the French and Spanish language.

Teaching experience:
I’ve been gaining experience as a tutor since December 2022, and it has become not only my job but my hobby too. I love to help people with learning this small but challenging language and getting to know many interesting people from all over the world in the process.

I invite you to take a class with me. That we we can get to know each other and see if there's a match.

About Me

I am a true Dutch person with a great curiosity for other languages and cultures. I actually have a technical background in Water Management, but later I started following my real interests. I help students learn Dutch and do that mainly through conversation lessons. My lessons are varied and I always try to build a good relationship with my students. I currently live in Cambodia, where I also teach from.

Education

I attended primary and secondary school (HAVO/VWO) in the Netherlands. I then started studying water management at Rotterdam University of Applied Sciences from 2012 to 2018. I then took various courses and worked as a freelancer until I finally started as a tutor.

Experience / Qualifications

Tutor since December 2022. During my studies, I lived in the Philippines for a total of one year for an internship and graduation. There I greatly improved my English language, so I can now give lessons from English to Dutch. In addition to tutoring, I also enjoy writing and regularly do writing assignments, which means I have a good command of the Dutch language.

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!

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.

Each class is tailored to the individual's requirements and/or needs. Want to improve career opportunities; learn or improve business Dutch, which will be the focus of each class.

For those already are familiar with Dutch; expanding existing knowledge together with a deeper cultural understanding and insight.

All students will be provided lesson schedules in advance for their review (time permitting).

The main focus is on total immersion in a fun and comprehensible way, without omitting important aspects such as grammar, etc.

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.

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.

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.

Hello!

I am a teacher in Tokyo. My lessons are particularly suited for those who need to practice their pronunciation and/or their vocabulary.

My classes can also include cultural aspects of the language and Dutch society. They would be ideal to help with orientation before travelling or moving to The Netherlands. If you are interested in the country and its customs, please do not hesitate to contact me.

日本語少し出来ます。宜しくお願いいたします。

Hi! I am a 17-year-old student from Spain and I would like to become a teacher later. I enjoy working with children and helping them with school.

I provide online help with **reading comprehension**, for example using texts and exercises from Nieuwsbegrip. We can read texts together, discuss difficult words, answer questions, and practice understanding the most important information.

The lessons are calm and tailored to the level and age of each child. My goal is to give children more self-confidence with reading comprehension and schoolwork. 😊
