Dutch and Flemish for all ages, tailored to your needs and taught in a fun way!

Von 41.43 $ /Std

Dutch can be very stressful to learn because of its difficult grammar and many different accents. As a Belgian-born Dutch speaker who lived for 5 years in the Netherlands, I can teach you about all the different accents, pronunciations and I understand the hurdles of learning such a multi-faceted language. I have learned 5 languages myself now together with Latin and ancient Greek so I know exactly what it is like to struggle, to overcome low confidence, and the many pitfalls of learning a language.

Thus, I want to bring the Dutch language to you in an easy, fun, and accessible way tailored to your preferences and needs. Send me a message, tell me a little bit why you want to learn Dutch, who you are and we can set up a personalized program in a super friendly environment!

Cheers and tot later! See you later!

Über mich

Hello!
Passionate about languages, having had to learn Persian and Italian for myself, I know what it's like to need a great tutor to take you along the different steps of language acquisition and also getting rid of that feeling of self-judgement and shyness.
I am a native Dutch and English speaker and also a certified TEFL tutor and Ashtanga Yoga teacher. In my free time, i love to go climbing, practicing block printing and gardening. I own a small Persian carpet business with my husband which is my main occupation.

Ashtanga Yoga personal training (AT THE MOMENT ONLY ONLINE!)

35.33 $ /Std

Ashtanga Yoga can be daunting to try at first. It is known to be a powerful, strong type of yoga that is not very friendly to beginners or non-athletes. Nevertheless, I want to completely debunk that myth and take you through all the different asanas, step by step, tailored to your specific needs.
I have worked in the past with people recovering from injuries such as a hernia or without knee ligaments, with people who haven't done sports in years as well as with professional dancers who just want to go a little deeper into a posture. Additionally, I have my 200HR Teacher Training Certificate endorsed by Manju Jois himself.
I am happy to do a session as part of a series of private lessons, so I can understand what you want to improve or learn with Ashtanga, and how I can best help you with that.
Unfortunately, for the moment I am only available online and not at my home location in Antwerp, Belgium.

I am originally from Flanders, Hasselt, and lived in Liège for a few years, now I live in Tongeren, a 20-minute drive from Liège.

I offer you individual help in Dutch.

Because every student is different, these courses are aimed at helping you learn Dutch in a way that you enjoy. To progress in the best way and to work effectively. This is to acquire and adapt an individual working method.

DUTCH FOR FOREIGNERS - ALL LEVELS - A0 to C1 / ONLINE LESSONS VIA SKYPE.
I teach beginners and advanced students. Special training is possible for integration exams or state exams.
All frequencies possible; once or several times a week. Lesson duration: 60, 90 and 120 minutes. Most students prefer lessons of 90 or 120 minutes, because 60 minutes is considered too short. I give CUSTOMIZED lessons at the pace that suits you. If you want to speed up, we speed up; if you want to slow down, we slow down; if you want to practice more, we practice more; everything depends on your general level of education and the time you have available - outside of class hours - to study and do homework.
Classes are available from 9am to 5pm; evening classes are negotiable. The available time slots on the Apprentus website are an indication only; since I do both short and long projects, I can often schedule you in at short notice, so you can start your course almost immediately.

NT2 - Dutch for speakers of other languages: help with the integration exam, State Exam I and II

Dutch lessons for non-native speakers at all levels, from A0 to C1. All frequencies possible: once or several times a week. Lessons of 60, 90 or 120 minutes. I adapt my lessons to your pace. I teach from Monday to Friday from 9:00 to 17:00. Evening lessons after 17:00 are also possible (in consultation); + 30%.
The times that there is room for lessons are only an indication!! Usually there is room at short notice, since I accept both short and long projects.

As non-Dutch speaking parents, it is certainly not easy to teach your children Dutch or help them become more fluent in the new language. Who wants some extra exercise for their kids? I would like to help you with that. As their vocabulary expands and their sentences become more fluent, your children will become more confident. A good command of the Dutch language is certainly to their advantage, both now and in the future.

Do your children need some help with their homework, especially with their Dutch, then I can help with that.

Even as non-native-speaking adults, it is sometimes difficult to have enough exercise. That is why adults who want to make progress in speaking the Dutch language are welcome here! We can practice the everyday language together. Conversing is the best way to learn a new language.

Anyone want to learn Persian? Then I am here to help you with that. Here too, I mainly work on communication.

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.

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.

I am a Belgian (Flemish) and French student with a Masters in International Public Law (Amsterdam) and a Masters in Global development (University of Copenhagen). World traveler, I have lived in Thailand, Denmark, Greece, the Netherlands, US, Switzerland and many more countries, where I both dtudies and worked as a legal advisor.

I have been tutoring since 2017, both in person, in schools and online, since 2017, I have been working with around 250 students, located everywhere in the world! Here is an overview of my previous tutoring experience:

2022-Now:
Online tutoring on Apprentus, (approx 12h/week).

2023:
Tutor of Dutch at Varady Language school in Geneva

2021-2022:
I worked at "bijlesthuis," a Dutch tutoring institution, where I primarily taught French, Dutch, and English to adult learners seeking to improve their language skills. During the same period, I also provided classes to other students through Apprentus.

2021:
Through Apprentus and other websites, I assisted several younger students (ages 5-15) in Bern and Geneva, helping them improve their skills in subjects such as Maths and French.

2017-2020:
I worked for three years at a tutoring institution in Geneva called ARA, where I primarily taught French, Mathematics, and English.

During this time, I also spent two years working at a private school called Florimont, where I supported students aged 11-16 across various subjects by assisting them with their homework.

I can teach French, Dutch, and English, Spanish and in German, and I thoroughly enjoy teaching and assisting students in their progress and acquisition of new skills.

As a person, I am flexible, calm, and positive.

I am excited to meet you and look forward to working with you!

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.
