Les Italiens sont mon Mother tongue. With great passion, I want to teach the beautiful Italian language according to your needs. Do you need to learn more about your school life... for your private and professional life? Does your child need help doing their homework? It is important to know that the nature of the matter is similar to the nature of the person who consults you.

I work in a natural way, and from the first lesson you will be able to speak simple sentences. As a general rule, I teach my lessons in Italian, so that you get effective 'full immersion' from the start (support languages such as Dutch, English or French are used if absolutely necessary).

I will teach you how Italian grammar works and how to best conduct a conversation with a native speaker. I teach you the language that is spoken today and Italian through fun and interactive lessons.

Moving to a new country can be hard (having lived in Spain, I know the feeling). Let me support you in learning Dutch as well as finding your way to integrate in the Netherlands. As a cultural anthropologist, I am trained to build bridges between cultures, and I approach differences with curiosity. We will design a learning pathway fully tailored to your needs. I like to use your favorite hobbies as a guideline for the classes: let's make music or play games while your learn Dutch!

Japanese is a beautiful language brimming with culture, but unfortunately, it's also difficult to get started. If you're lost for the trees (or the kanji), or haven't even dared to try it yet, but have suddenly been bitten by the Japanese bug, then you've come to the right place.

I'll teach you the basics of Japanese and grow completely at your level. You'll receive customized learning materials, and I can provide homework assignments if needed. Once you've mastered the basics, we can expand to cultural nuances and more advanced language skills. You can also "request topics." Is there something specific you'd like to learn? Are you preparing for a vacation, or do you simply want to improve your writing? Let me know!
