About Me
Hallo! Ik ben Heleni, een Nederlandstalige Brusselaar met het Nederlands als moedertaal. Ik help je graag op een leuke, persoonlijke en praktische manier Nederlands te leren.

Mijn aanpak is simpel: geen stijve handboeken of standaardlessen. Ik stem elke les af op jouw doelen, interesses en tempo. Of je nu Nederlands wil leren voor een reis, om met familie te praten, voor je carrière, of gewoon uit liefde voor de taal—ik bouw de lessen rond wat voor jou écht telt.

We kunnen aan de slag met dagelijkse conversaties, grammatica, woordenschat, of duiken in specifieke thema's die jou boeien, zoals reizen, muziek of film. Mijn achtergrond in 'storytelling' en communicatie zorgt voor creativiteit, geduld en vooral veel levensechte context.

Bovenal geloof ik dat leren aanmoedigend moet zijn, niet intimiderend. Mijn lessen zijn een veilige plek om fouten te maken, vragen te stellen en stap voor stap zelfvertrouwen op te bouwen.

Laten we samen aan de slag gaan! 🌷

--------------------------------------------------------------

Hi! I'm Heleni, a native Dutch speaker from Brussels, and I'm here to make learning Dutch fun, personal, and practical.

My approach is simple: no rigid textbooks or one-size-fits-all lessons. Instead, I tailor every class to your goals, interests, and pace. Whether you want to prepare for a trip, improve your career opportunities, or simply fall in love with the language—I design our lessons around what actually matters to you.

We can focus on conversation, grammar, vocabulary, or dive into specific topics you're passionate about, like travel, music, film or sustainability. My background in storytelling and communication means I bring creativity, patience, and real-life context into every session.

Above all, I believe learning should feel encouraging, not intimidating. My classes are a safe space to make mistakes, ask questions, and build confidence step by step. 🌷
Education
I have a Master's Degree in Literature & Linguistics (Vrije Universiteit Brussel) as well as in Documentary film production from Barcelona's Escola de Cinema (ECIB).
Experience / Qualifications
I have worked in the social and NGO sector as a communications expert and documentary filmmaker for over eight years, focusing on sustainability and climate justice, and I have been enjoying teaching Dutch and English as a freelancer for five years!

SUMMARY DESCRIPTION (IN BRIEF):
➤ Objective

️ -Concrete tools (non-violent communication, NLP, emotional intelligence, persuasion techniques).
️ -A personalized approach tailored to your goals and obstacles.

-️More confidence and ease in front of an audience.
-️A structured, impactful and memorable speech.
-️An increased ability to convince, persuade and inspire.
-️The pleasure of speaking... rather than apprehension.

➤ In short: Turn your words into a formidable asset. Go from stress to impact, from hesitation to charisma. Ready to take your communication to the next level?

DETAILED DESCRIPTION:
➤Take control of your communication and make a lasting impression!
Do you want to be more convincing in public? Manage your personal and professional interactions with ease? Transform your public speaking into real levers of influence and persuasion?
Whether it's for negotiating, arguing, improvising, managing conflicts or capturing attention, it's not just about self-confidence, but about techniques and impact.

➤Improve your public speaking skills, better manage your personal/professional communication and the resulting conflicts, master negotiation techniques (...): your communication goals may be diverse, and the aim of these sessions is precisely to support you in achieving them. So, how do you deliver a clear message, be impactful, stand out, and leave a lasting impression?

➤ Whether your objective is personal or professional, speaking is a predominantly physical activity, relying on a body, a voice, a breath, a rhythm (diction), an emotion and above all techniques, tools, a method, a know-how, reflecting the speaker's involvement in his speech.

➤ On the telephone, in a meeting, in front of a client, his family (...), relevant and successful speaking must always be effective and efficient, with clear, simple and impactful messages, creating a balance between the message received and message sent. Coherence between form and content. The important thing in communication is not the confidence we have in ourselves, but the appearance of confidence we exude. It’s also not about being structured or coherent but simply about appearing to be so. And to do this, there are targeted tools.

➤ So, how do you listen and be listened to, convince/persuade and be impactful, challenge and leave an impression, enhance your content, address your audience relevantly and optimize the quality & clarity of the exchange/message? It is precisely a question of going through, applying and deploying practical and effective techniques of oral presentation, simple intervention or 'one to one' exchange, aiming to challenge one's audience or interlocutor, taking care of both the content and the form. , all in a professional or personal setting. Here again, there is a range of precise verbal and non-verbal communication techniques which, once modernized and brought up to date, will be put to the service of your reality. Allowing you to move from fear to pleasure in front of the public.

➤ Thus, mastered, the practical method allows, through a set of simulations and scenarios based on your daily experience supporting pragmatic & concrete techniques, to improve self-confidence, self-assurance, ease by overcoming discomfort and controlling his emotion in public. But also to work on your leadership & charisma, in a context where empathy and emotional intelligence are at the service of communication.

➤ So, in this context, after having precisely defined your objective and reviewed the obstacles encountered, here are some examples of themes covered through concrete techniques and a targeted methodology:
✓Practical tools to perfect your rhetoric/repartee
✓Decode and use the practical communication tools of great leaders
✓Fundamentals (practices) of eloquence but also of oratorical art (intonation, gaze, gestures, elocution, range, emotions, pronunciation, development of one's own style of charisma, etc.) to ensure consistency between content and the form
✓Fundamentals of Body Language to support and not interfere with the speech while being convinced & convincing.
✓ Highlighting their speech & promoting their speaking to arouse interest, by building on their strengths.
✓Creation of a coherence between the message emitted & the message received in order to improve its speech and in fact, its professional/personal relations.
✓Management of Q&A sessions & external reactions during an intervention or an oral exchange.
✓Practical tools to put your interlocutor at ease and appear friendly/interested.
✓To succeed in a negotiation/mediation.
✓On the one hand, learning to say 'no' simply in three steps AND on the other hand, getting people to say 'yes'.
✓To turn sentences into positive AND constructive.
✓To manage conflicts (eg 'assertive' communication techniques, eg CNV techniques - Non Violent Communication).
✓To put NLP (neuro-linguistic programming) at the service of communication.
✓To adopt effective, simple, fair and engaging language.
✓To use sentences, turns of phrase & expressions allowing to be precise, simple, effective & challenging.
✓To manage your personal & professional relationships with, for example, the preparation of your ratings.
✓Make your hypersensitivity a strength to tame your abilities.
✓Listening proactively and expressing / conveying ideas / message clearly.
✓ Avoid letting your emotions show through and propose a constructive solution to problems, while drawing on your own relational skills.
✓Be better equipped to recognize and immediately remedy situations that weaken their authority and affect their ability to communicate effectively.
✓Enhance their potential for expression and creativity (often underestimated until now) and 'apparent' sociability
✓Develop not necessarily self-confidence, but the 'appearance' of self-confidence, refine one's listening to respond adequately, open up to the resources of the imagination, free oneself from the rational to then structure one's speech.
✓Relate their communication objectives (project, institution, values, ideas, demands, etc.) to the form of their expression.
✓Learn and put into practice persuasive communication techniques and better understand the perception that others have of oneself. In order to improve his skills of 'self-presentation' and conveyed image.
✓Practical techniques to foster the engagement of the other party.
✓Strengthen the structure of its communication and develop a convincing argument in order to sell its ideas and projects.
✓ Optimizing internal and external relationships are professional fundamentals, so the structure of meetings, dialogue within the company, and mastery of change communication are invaluable.

(...)

➤ In addition, you will leave with concrete and immediately useful tools, developed in the form of practical lightning modules: learning to say no, getting a delicate message across, selling an idea, expressing disagreement with an authority, getting a "yes" without upsetting someone, resisting the pressure of a too-quick "yes", calming someone who has taken your words badly (...).

➤ In short, public speaking skills are now an essential cross-functional skill for asserting oneself, informing, negotiating, and persuading. However, to master the keys to successful public communication, it is necessary to enhance the impact of one's own speeches: by structuring one's interventions and taking into account the circumstances and the audience's expectations; by making a lasting impression through storytelling; by integrating the psychological and emotional factors of effective oral communication; by incorporating emotions into the preparation of the message and arguments; by anticipating objections and delicate situations; by preparing and structuring an engaging and convincing presentation outline; by experimenting with the rules of improvisation; and by appropriately managing difficult situations (...).

➤ In short, each session combines techniques & practical exercises adapted to your everyday situations (filmed with your agreement in order to be reviewed, commented on, decoded together live, to have an external perspective and areas for improvement) , so that you will be able to apply them immediately, and from the first session.

➤Progress following these sessions is noticeable from 2 to 3 sessions (*study 2026).

➤ Make your words a formidable asset. Ready to take things to the next level?

Want to understand and speak real Moroccan Arabic (Darija)?

This course is designed specifically for English speakers who want to communicate confidently in Morocco — whether for travel, relocation, business, relationships, or cultural interest.

Darija is very different from Classical Arabic, and most textbooks don’t teach how Moroccans actually speak. In this class, you will learn authentic, practical Darija used in daily life.

You will learn how to:

• Introduce yourself naturally
• Order food, take taxis, shop and negotiate
• Handle everyday conversations
• Understand common expressions and slang
• Improve pronunciation step by step
• Build sentences correctly without feeling overwhelmed
• Understand Moroccan culture and communication style

My method is structured but practical. We focus on real conversations from the first lesson. You won’t just memorize — you will speak.

Lessons are personalized to your goals and level. Complete beginners are welcome.

By the end of your first sessions, you’ll already be able to hold simple real-life conversations.

Let’s make Darija simple, practical and enjoyable.
