Dutch lessons for young professionals as well as academic/university support

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
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!

About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
A lawyer by training and after so many years of career in international business, and the 3 children having left the house, I am moving towards teaching individual Dutch. I focus on young professionals, on children in secondary school, on students preparing for their exams and on people looking for work or who simply want to improve their Dutch.
My leitmotif: Dutch is not impossible!

Please note that the English and Dutch versions of my profile are being translated by Apprentice uses. I have noted quite some errors.

I was looking for a teacher to help me improve my conversational abilities in Dutch and Astrid turned out to be the best choice for me. I really enjoyed the lessons with her. She is very pleasant, an engaging and patient teacher who encourages you every step of the way. She helped me immensely in building my confidence about speaking the language. Thank you Astrid!

Pieter
Knowledge enrichment Science / Languages and State Economics
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.

Private lessons in Dutch for children and adults
Special Dutch teacher in municipal education (master in languages and theater and cinema sciences at Rijksuniversiteit Utrecht) gives Dutch lessons to children and adults. At your home or at my home (Bois de la Cambre-Bruxelles). I also offer creative workshops (knitting, DIY, cooking) in the target language.

Camille
Private lessons in English and Dutch, remediation and basics. No discussion classes. Exam preparation or academic support.
> I give language lessons (English and Dutch) for secondary or higher education students, I have a B2/C1 level in English. > I am very scholarly and pay particular attention to work methodology. > For English lessons, I can review the basics but what really matters to me is to adapt to the difficulties and needs of each person. > I do not give conversation lessons. I think my method is not suitable. I prefer to work for academic support, to get better grades or to pass an exam. It’s easier to structure my working method! About me : I learned languages for a year after my rhéto. I went to the United States and the Netherlands. Then I continued to have English and Dutch lessons at university as part of my bachelor's degree in business engineering. Most of my course was in English. I also gave tutoring (to English-speaking children to learn French) and in Dutch.

Thibault
Private lessons: Learning Dutch is easy!
Hello, I am a 22 year old student who has always been in a Dutch-speaking school system. My family is of Flemish but French-speaking origin so I have always played with both at home. Thanks to this it is very easy for me to initiate Dutch with simple and structured explanations while adapting to the student's level. My goal is to teach the student Dutch in a fun way, because contrary to its reputation, Dutch is a beautiful and fun language when you know it. You or your children will appreciate the patience and motivation I have when it comes to initiation.

Catharina
Dutch for all levels, situations. Complete immersion.
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.

Marcel
Dynamic Dutch courses with a smiling native speaker ;-)
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.

Carola
Dutch conversation for kids and adults, to read, to write and understand the language.
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.

Dutch - ITNA preparation for non-native speakers: goal-oriented and intensive
Prepare in an efficient, intensive way for the ITNA (Interuniversity Language Test Dutch), based on tailor-made exercises. We practice together on language in use, grammar and vocabulary, gap texts, structuring exercises, dictation, presentations and argumentation. Would you like to learn Dutch at a different level (A1 - C1) or are you a native speaker with a specific question, be sure to check out my other lesson "Dutch for non-native speakers and native speakers".

Dutch lessons for adults, teenagers and children, fully adapted to the needs of a student!
Hello everyone, in my class it is first of all important that the student feels comfortable! We will therefore first get to know each other better and you as a student can then tell me what you expect/want in a lesson, or what you specifically need. From there we draw up a schedule and step by step ensure that you as a student master the Dutch language. Some of you will come to me because it is necessary, for example an integration exam, some of you will come because they are going to work temporarily in the Netherlands, others enjoy it as a hobby and others come to the Netherlands for love... There are so many reasons! My classes are tailored to your wishes so that you will feel truly comfortable. From young to adult students, I enjoy teaching all over the world. I hope to have made you curious and to meet and welcome you in my class :)
