Nederlands voor anderstaligen (Dutch for foreign language speakers)

Translated by GoogleSee original

From 29 € /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.

A qualified language coach with 25 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 25 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.

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.

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.

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

I offer Dutch lessons for people who already have a basic level and want to improve their fluency and confidence. My lessons are practical, dynamic, and focused on real-life communication, pronunciation, and everyday situations, both for work and personal life.

I am a native Dutch speaker and live in Spain. I learned Spanish myself as an adult, so I know perfectly well what it's like to learn a new language from scratch and the challenges it entails.

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.
