Dutch is a lovely language. Knowing more languages will help you understand more things and help you travel and enjoy more things. By knowing the language, you can live and travel in the country with ease. Come and learn more of the country where many most famous painters came from. Like Vermeer, van Gogh, Mondrian, Rembrandt, and where Anne Frank was born.

Über mich
My Bio: Hi, I am xiomara. I am 48 years young. I did a short bachelor in Spanish language..I am from a tiny island in the Caribbean sea, I speak four languages (English, Dutch, Spanish and Papiamento) and love to be occupied with stuff that I love to do. I love to teach people stuff that they don't know, I love to dans, sing, crochet, search a lot about health success stories, and health research. I love to watch asmr videos online while I drift off to sleep or while I eat and watch my mind movie. I love to watch or read about how others made their money in the hope that I would get a little bit more insight in to what I shall do to find my way to riches. Thanks to that, I wrote my book Abound with Riches which I sell on the biggest online marketplace. I also make a lot of mock-up templates which I sell in my lovebubbleart store on Zazzle and I do affiliate work by posting other people's content on my social media pages.

Like your hobbies, natural ways to heal yourself of something, how to be financially free, belief, happiness and so on. Or I can let you read, and we will work on a way to pronounce some words better.

I was born in Istanbul in 1983. I started teaching Turkish while studying Turkish Language and Literature at university. I worked in a language school and at universities. I have been teaching Turkish professionally for more than 16 years. I also taught Turkish for 5 years when I was a university student. In 2018, I obtained a TESOL certificate and also began teaching English.

I teach both adults and children. Creating a comfortable learning environment for my students is one of my top priorities. If you would like to learn Turkish or English in a consistent and structured way, I would be happy to work with you.

I hold firmly to two main principles: creating a comfortable space for learning and building an encouraging atmosphere.

My students often describe me as patient, positive, and well-organised. Over time, I’ve found my own way of making Turkish feel easier, more enjoyable, and more practical to learn.

I love shaping each lesson around my students’ interests, needs, and learning styles. I adapt my teaching to the needs of students with special conditions, such as ADHD and OCD.

In my lessons, you’ll never feel afraid of making mistakes. Before long, you’ll start noticing them on your own and correcting yourself naturally.

Even though I use a communicative approach, my lessons are supported by a solid understanding of grammar, as Turkish has a very different structure.

I use the course book set prepared by Istanbul University. It follows a strategic approach to learning Turkish and includes all language skills—reading, grammar, writing, listening, watching, and speaking—from A1 to C2. All of these skills are essential for conversation.

I teach English for the A1 and A2 levels.

The workbook offers many exercises for homework or revision, and I support the book with my own authentic materials. I also use an interactive board that you can view anytime, and you can edit it as well. Repetition-based speaking practice plays an important role in my lessons.

I speak English well, and a bit of Italian, and I have also studied Persian and German grammar. I am interested in literature.

One-on-one lessons on Apprentus are just for you. Are you ready to see the benefits and start speaking right away? We will not forget to smile while doing fun and interesting lessons! :)

Thank you, and I look forward to meeting you!

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.

Welcome :)

My name is Hamed (حمد), and I come from Syria. My passion lies in the art of writing, and I work as an author. It gives me great joy to teach my mother tongue and to help others learn how to read and write it.

In my course, we will dive in together and discover the fascination of the Arabic language. We will take the time to determine your personal language level so that the course can be adapted accordingly. Whether you are a beginner or already have advanced knowledge, we will work with exercises and activities tailored to your individual needs.

Together, we will embark on a journey in which we explore not only the language, but also the culture and diversity of the Arab world. I look forward to welcoming you to my course and learning and growing together with you.

I'm a TEFL-certified teacher of English as a foreign language with 3+ years of experience teaching at a private bilingual school in Thailand.

I know how to help my students break the language barrier, make them confident speakers, and help them be able to use English in real communicative situations.

I have a degree in English Philology, which gave me a deep understanding of linguistics and how languages are acquired, and I always try to apply that knowledge in my work. I have a neutral accent and a deep knowledge of phonology, which helps me teach English pronunciation successfully. I can teach my students to produce both American and British neutral accents and understand the differences between them.

I prefer a communicative approach and always try to maximize student talking time in my classes. Also, I love using the TPR (Total Physical Response) and TPRS (Teaching Proficiency through Reading and Storytelling) approaches in my classes, because they are extremely beneficial for young learners and increase their interest and motivation.

My name is Yvette, I am a primary school teacher and educational psychologist and have more than 10 years of experience teaching Dutch abroad.
During an initial consultation, we'll discuss your needs. Why do you want to learn Dutch, and which aspects of the language should receive the most attention? Everyone has different goals and desires, and my lessons are tailored to them. I teach everyone, young and old, who wants to learn Dutch or improve their skills. I believe it's important to structure the lessons so that everyone gets the most out of each hour, while also allowing room for variety and improvisation. My experience as a teacher and educational psychologist has taught me how to quickly put people at ease. Moreover, I've personally experienced what it's like to learn a foreign language (German and English), so I can easily empathize.

A propos de moi :

Dutchophone de naissance, j'ai grandi aux Pays-Bas avant de déménager en Belgique où je vis depuis maintenant plus de quarante ans.

Since I am young, I appreciate my foreign languages (Français, English, et al.) and my interest in their features; It is important to note that this is an excellent understanding of the general manner of the business, but also helps to facilitate the development of the new language.

Since we are young, we have a tendency to accumulate experience and experience in the long term, and also continue to develop our individual collectives, young and old.
