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.

University English Instructor| Started teaching English 9 years ago| Specializing in Conversational English.

My teaching approach is designed to develop communication skills above all. We watch or read materials, such as videos, articles, stories, poems, caricatures, then discuss them; we act out situations from everyday life; we take positions and practice debates. However, this doesn’t mean that we just practice speaking. I also make sure the learner is not running in circles. I’m here to ensure that they do not keep repeating the same mistakes or keep using the same expressions over and over in conversation.
In order to keep making progress, I take my student on a journey that involves:
• Improving their grammar.
• Fixing their pronunciation.
• Enriching their vocabulary by learning to use new words and common idioms.
By the end of this course, you should be able to speak English fluently and confidently.

PS: Because of my academic specialty, I also help with academic writing and creative writing.

Hello everyone!
I'm Giorgia and I come from Torino, Italy.
I offer my native knowledge of Italian to any of you, who wants to discover this beautiful language.

I teach for all levels, from very beginners to advanced speakers, passing through amateurs or simply curious of any age. I can also help with university exams and school works/assignments.
Being a pianist and a piano teacher, I already have lots of experience with teaching and pedagogical approach with the whole range of ages.

The lesson is intended to meet the student needs: the focus can be on the grammar, conversation or literature. In case of a middle-level speaker, the lesson will cover all four language's abilities: listening, speaking, writing and reading. My suggestion of a well planned lesson is, for any level, to divide it into two parts: grammar first and then conversation (covering all the abilities mentioned above).

Thank you for your attention and looking forward to meeting you !!

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

Learn to Perfect Your American English Accent and Communication Skills—for Work, Academics, and Everyday Life
Great for Study Abroad and International Students!

“Where are you from? ...No, but where are you actually from?”

I was born and have lived in the United States my entire life (28 years). I lived in the rural Midwestern state of Wisconsin until age 13. Then I lived, attended middle school, graduated high school, and attended university in the major U.S. cities of Chicago, Illinois, and San Francisco, California.

I come from a bilingual home, and my parents speak with an accent—but my American English accent is clear, standard, and natural.

I’m happy to work with you to help you sound more American. This can be extremely useful for English learners who want to communicate more confidently and comfortably in school, at work, and in daily life.

We will cover:
• Accent and pronunciation
• Pacing and rhythm
• Vocabulary and word choice
• Delivery and confidence

All techniques are based on evidence from linguistics and communication studies, so you’ll understand why they work—not just memorize rules. Accent and communication improvement is a science and an art.

I have worked in journalism, speech-language pathology, tourism, and customer service. I have experience in high-academic settings (like museums and graduate seminars) and everyday settings (like working in stores). I am currently working toward a Level 5 TEFL diploma.

I have one semester left in my degree in Spanish and Chinese at San Francisco State University, and I plan to move abroad for graduate school. I have also taken graduate-level classes in Chinese and Spanish. I speak eight languages fluently, and I understand what it takes to make a foreign-language accent sound natural and confident.
I’m warm, friendly, patient, professional, open-minded, and flexible. Every student has a unique journey in language learning, and I will meet you where you are to meet your goals.

Feel free to message me with any questions!

Hello, my name is Adil, a teacher passionate about languages and specializing in practical and effective French teaching.
With me, there are no boring classes: we learn with a method, with measurable progress.

I help you:

✔ speak more naturally,
✔ Improve your basics and grammar,
✔ Enrich your vocabulary,
✔ to prepare for an exam, an interview or life in a French-speaking country.

I speak French, English and Portuguese, which allows me to understand the difficulties of learners and to explain clearly.

Whether you are a beginner or advanced, I adapt to you.

I have concrete and varied experience in teaching French internationally:

1) As a private French and English teacher in Brazil, I have worked with students of very different profiles (students, professionals, complete beginners as well as advanced levels).

2) Assistant professor in a Brazilian University (UFES), an experience which allowed me to work in an academic setting, to prepare structured educational activities and to support groups of students.

3) As a volunteer teacher with the French Red Cross, I taught French to refugees and people in integration programs. This experience gave me a human, patient, and truly personalized approach to teaching.

Being trilingual allows me to understand the difficulties encountered by a learner and to adapt my courses accordingly.

Regarding my method:

I propose a structured yet accessible approach, based on:

1) Clear objectives from the very first lesson,

2) a personalized progression according to the student's level and pace,

3) a balance between grammar, conversation, vocabulary and comprehension,

4) varied activities: role-playing, dialogues, exercises, guided correction,

5) Follow-up after each session to measure progress.

I have worked with learners with diverse objectives:
✔ integration in France,
✔ Improved oral communication,
✔ academic or university refresher courses,
✔ Professional French and DAFL/DEFL certifications,
✔ Language preparation for everyday life or work

I’m a qualified English teacher with 6 years of experience, Cambridge certifications, and a strong focus on practical, real-world English.

What you get in my classes:
✔️ Structured lessons with a clear goal (every class has a purpose - no chaos)
✔️ Speaking-focused approach (you’ll speak more than I do)
✔️ Grammar explained logically - without overcomplicating things
✔️ Personalised materials based on your level, goals, and learning style
✔️ Honest feedback and real correction (yes, I will correct you - kindly but firmly)

I help students who want to:
- improve spoken fluency and confidence
- prepare for IELTS or Cambridge exams (KET, PET, FCE, CAE)
- use English for work, relocation, interviews, or daily life
- finally understand grammar instead of memorising rules blindly

Levels:
A1 to C1

My teaching style:
Calm, structured, supportive - but demanding.
I won’t pressure you, but I won’t let you stagnate either.

If you’re ready to invest effort and want English that actually works outside the classroom, we’ll get along just fine.
