Private Dutch lessons / Privéles Nederlands als tweede taal
Hello,
Nice to meet you! I am a native Dutch speakers and giving private Dutch lessons. I offer the following:
- Conversation classes
- Business Dutch
- Dutch for daily usage
- Literature classes (if you want to take your Dutch to the next level)
I cater my lessons towards the student - in the first session, I want to get to know you, your level and your goals and interests. I will then draw up a lesson plan together with you, so we can focus on your personal goals. I take a patient and engaging approach - languages are learnt by practising, not by attending lectures.
A bit about myself:
I studied journalism, English philology and have a Masters degree in modern literature from the University of St Andrews (Scotland). After my studies, I moved to Poland where I worked in IT and HR before becoming a teacher. As I live in Poland, I only offer online classes. Moving to a country where I did not speak the language really helped me improve as a teacher - I know how hard it can be!
Are you interested or do you have more questions? Feel free to reach out!

About Me
Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Hey!My name is Syme and I tutor English and Dutch. I have a passion for language - I studied Journalism and English Language and Culture and have a Masters in Literature from St Andrews (Scotland). I like to write, read and share my enthusiasm.
I also like to go on an adventure. After my studies I moved to Poland, because I wanted to learn more about the eastern part of Europe. I liked it so much that I've been living here for almost seven years now.
I am currently following the Cambridge English teacher training course.

Hey,
Would you like to improve your English? Do you want to be able to communicate better at work? Then you've come to the right place.
I studied English at Utrecht University and then did a master's degree in literature in Scotland (St Andrews). Then I moved to Poland, where my daily communication is in English. I have six years of experience in international companies. I am currently in the process of getting my CELTA certificate.
In the first lesson I would like to get to know you - what is your level, your goal and what are your interests?
My philosophy is that a lesson should be interesting and stimulating. That's why I tune in to you personally. This could be for example:
- Talking a lot so that you become self-confident
- A lot of talking where I constantly interrupt you to improve you
- Focused work on a part that you are having trouble with
- Business English: we can use examples from your own work
- Role-playing to practice certain situations
- Discuss literature to take your English to the very highest level
I'd love to hear what you want to get out of the lessons, and together we'll make sure it works!

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.

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
Dutch lessons for adults / Basis Nederlands voor anderstaligen (beginners)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.

Learn Dutch in a short time - experienced coach (24 years of experience) State Exam NT2 trainer - inspired to teach Dutch to expatsA qualified language coach with 24 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 24 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.
Karin
Dutch and English - language lessons, tutoring and extra supportDo you want to improve your language skills or perhaps learn a new language? I offer enthusiastic, tailor-made lessons in Dutch and English.

Whether you want to perfect your Dutch, need English for work or study, or want to learn the language for travel; I will make sure that your goals come within reach.
My lessons are interactive, practice-oriented and adapted to your learning style and level. Together we work with clear steps and achievable goals, so that you quickly see progress. With me as a teacher, you will not only discover the language, but also the culture and the nuances that help you to really communicate and make an impression.

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 supportDutch 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!
