From 413.95 CNY /h

I offer tailor‐made Dutch lessons for teenagers and adults who want to strengthen their language skills for school, work, or personal development. I can support you in areas such as:

- Professional language coaching for speeches, pitches, presentations, and business communication.

- Practical training sessions in which we rewrite texts together and walk through concrete scenarios.

My approach is personal, attentive to nuance, context, and the learner’s objectives. Thanks to my multilingual background (NL/FR/EN/DE), I can switch smoothly between languages and make complex linguistic questions accessible.

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!

As a former Geography teacher for a few years at the start of my career and now as a young retired ex-Chief of Police and perfectly bilingual Dutch-French, I offer a daily availability to help out during the day where it is needed. I have the necessary pedagogical skills to help raise the knowledge of others to a higher level and to fill certain gaps.
This can be for tutoring / explaining Geography and other Sciences to pupils / pupils to Dutch language lessons for adults and (extra) lessons in other languages for pupils and pupils in function of improving their language skills.

If there is a need for it, I can of course also provide an explanation of the Belgian state and regional / community structures and their role and functioning, but also provide meaningful interpretation / explanation of relevant / useful criminal aspects of application in our society.

This course aims to engage learners with little or no programming experience to create Java programs. Participants are introduced to object-oriented programming concepts, terminology and syntax, and the steps required to create basic Java programs using the Alice and Eclipse interactive development environments. Hand-on practice enables learners to experience the power of computer programming.

The JavaTM programming language can be challenging for computer programmers with limited or no experience in object-oriented programming. To provide an easy introduction to Java, Alice is explored first in this course, so that fundamental principles and skills are established using 3D animations in a fun, visually rich environment.

When learners become familiar with the concepts of object-oriented programming, they can proceed with the Eclipse integrated development environment (IDE), which is widely used in computer programming. It contains a basic workspace and an extendable plug-in system for customising the environment.

The content and pace of the course is adapted to the age and needs of the learners.

I help you prepare your homework and tests but also to better understand the subject with which you are having difficulty (English, French, mathematics).
I adapt my method to the personality of each student, which allows for a better understanding of the subject.

My name is Ségolène (26 years old). I have a double degree from KULeuven with a Master of Business Administration (NL/EN) as well as the agrégation (Educatieve Master). I worked for 2 years in insurance and currently work at Odoo.

My mother tongue is French, but from a very young age, I was educated in Dutch, which allowed me to become perfectly bilingual. I love supporting my students and seeing them progress. I offer academic support in any subject but also to help them learn how to learn, become better organized, and gain confidence.

MY EXPERIENCE :

I helped several students to pass the CE1D exam in Dutch (written, oral, listening comprehension). In addition, I also assisted students with their homework and for various subjects at secondary level (Maths, Handel (commerce), Sciences: WO, NW...).
Finally, it is also possible for younger children to learn Dutch in a fun way (language games, educational games).

During a test carried out on the CLL site to assess my level (A1, A2, B1, B2, C1 or C2), I obtained the result C2: "The student expresses himself appropriately in n' any situation, by dominating the linguistic and cultural elements proper to a native speaker and by knowing how to distinguish shades of meaning."

I offer tailored courses, in person or remotely, according to the needs of each student. For academic support, I adapt to the program followed by the child or adolescent, by deepening the concepts already covered, by re-explaining difficult points or by dissecting problematic themes.

For adults, I mainly teach the basics in Dutch, but I can adapt my lessons to different objectives. For example: learning the vocabulary for a new position, preparing for an exam (Selor, language certification), refreshing your knowledge before an interview, or improving your ability to communicate effectively in a professional or personal context. My approach is always flexible, student-centered, and aims to strengthen both understanding and self-confidence.

My goal is to restore confidence, explain things differently when necessary, and turn challenges into real successes. I primarily prepare students for the CE1D exam. First, we work together on each skill assessed during this test. Then, I guide the student through the practice of all these skills so they can approach the exam in its entirety with confidence and method.

I’m a passionate Dutch language trainer and certified coach who helps adults improve their communication skills in a professional context. Since 2014, I have been teaching Dutch to employees, managers and university staff in Brussels and beyond — always with a focus on clarity, confidence and authenticity.

My lessons are interactive, tailored to each learner’s goals and filled with real-life situations such as meetings, emails, small talk and presentations. As a coach, I integrate tools that build self-awareness and motivation, helping learners overcome fear or hesitation when speaking a new language.

I believe that learning a language is not just about grammar and vocabulary — it’s about expressing who you are. That’s why I combine language training with coaching techniques to create a safe and positive learning environment where progress happens naturally.

I offer personalized support for students of all levels, ranging from homework help to exam preparation such as the CEB, CE1D and CESS (all subjects except mathematics and science).
As the eldest of five children and a law student at ULB, I have developed solid experience in mentoring young people. I also provide tutoring services within a non-profit organization, which has allowed me to adapt my methods to each student and their specific needs.
I am particularly passionate about humanities subjects: French, history, geography, philosophy, and English, and I make it a point of honor to ensure that lessons are clear, motivating, and interactive. My goal is to help each student understand the subject matter, progress at their own pace, and gain confidence and independence.

You propose a private course in the Netherlands (conversation and grammar) at the same level as the first level: the débutant at confirmation, for a secondary and superior level of knowledge, and for the whole person to be part of the language.

The method of articulating the axes principally, according to the principle:

1. Cours théoriques : apprendre ou parfaire ses connaissances de la langue à l'aide d'exercices de grammaire (conjugaison, construction de phrases), enrichir son vocabulaire.

2. Cours de conversation : entrainer à pratiquer la langue à partir de textes qui traitent de l'actualité ou de jeux de role.

You choose the appropriate adapter, the rhythm and the specific characteristics of the environment, to create a convivial atmosphere and the apprentissage.

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.

I offer Dutch lessons adapted to beginners as well as to people who already have some basic knowledge.

I have a B2 level in Dutch, validated by a certificate of achievement, which allows me to teach the language in a clear, structured and accessible way.

The goal is to make learning simple, progressive and motivating, by advancing step by step on the essential basics of the language.

Each course is structured around:

- useful everyday vocabulary
- Grammar explained simply
- basic conjugation
- oral and written comprehension
- Conversation exercises to quickly gain fluency

I adapt to the pace and objectives of each student (school, work or personal learning), in a relaxed and encouraging atmosphere.

The goal is to progress effectively while gaining confidence in speaking.

I offer structured, one-on-one tutoring in physics and mathematics for secondary and university students. Sessions are in English or Spanish, depending on your preference.

What I cover:

-Physics — IB SL/HL, A-Level, IGCSE, Belgian/French secondary, first and second-year university (mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, waves, modern physics)
-Mathematics — IB SL/HL (Analysis & Approaches), A-Level, IGCSE, calculus, linear algebra, STEM entrance preparation

How sessions work:

-The first session is diagnostic — we identify the actual gaps, set a plan, and decide whether we're a good fit. After that, sessions combine conceptual work, problem-solving, and past-paper practice depending on what's coming up.
I give specific, honest feedback after each session. For younger students, I'm happy to share a short written summary with parents.

Format: Online via video, or at the student's home within Brussels Region.

Depending on the student's level, the objectives to be achieved, but also their strengths and weaknesses, we establish a working method together.
Most often, the lesson focuses on identifying and clarifying grammar points that need review (inversion, enjambment, tenses, agreement, Dutch syntax, etc.), and on practice exercises. I also frequently assign small homework assignments for the following lesson, as language learning requires consistent effort.
If possible, we end the lesson with a short conversation on the topic of the day.
