Learn Dutch by taking private lessons or in a group session at your pace.

Hello!

My name is Arisa, I am 33 years old. I have studied French here in Amsterdam and I have worked as a French Language teacher for several years.

Currently I'm running a freelance business called Pidgin Tutoring, where I specialise in Dutch. I have also worked as a Dutch Language Teacher at Lycée Francais Vincent van Gogh in Amsterdam where I've worked with children in the age of 2-4 years old.

My main goal is to help my students improve their Dutch and to pass all of their exams. And to prove that learning these languages can be fun :)

Looking forward to meeting you!

Arisa

About Me

Hello futur student,

As a child I always liked to read and to write. As a child I also knew that I really wanted to learn French. During my life I have vistited France many times and I simply fell in love with this language. You could say that the french language and languages in general are my passion. While I was studying at the university of Amsterdam, I also took courses on Italian and Spanish. In the future I would like to study Turkish and Arabic. Languages are so important to connect with other people and to discover so many new things. Let's study together!

Education

I went to the Gymnasium from 2002-2008 (during this time I have graduated in English, level CAE)
I have studied French at the University of Amsterdam, Bachelor 2008-2012
I have a MA in Literature (French Surrealism) 2013

Experience / Qualifications

I have taught children and adults from when I was 18 years old, so I have a lot of experience. I have taught French at several high schools from 2013-2018 after having finished my studies.

Reviews (3)

I decided to take private lessons because I needed to practice my (basic/medium) Dutch. Arisa is great. The whole lesson is in Dutch which helps with the immersive experience and after a few lessons I was already much more confident to speak. She is always very well prepared and we don't stop the lesson until she has covered everything she needed to cover even if that means overrunning a bit. I would definitely recommend her.
Arisa was very good at understanding how my English-speaking son (6) could best master the Dutch language, so Arisa made this possible through play. She was very creative and my son enjoyed learning Dutch. We will ask Arisa for lessons more often. Thank you very much Arisa!!!

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.

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 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 :)

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

Aylin
Turkish and NT2 (Dutch as a second language) for adults and children
Enthusiastic teacher with a university degree and 20 years of work experience in the Netherlands offers Dutch and Turkish lessons for beginners and advanced students. I was born and raised in Turkey. I have built up extensive experience as a teacher of NT2 (Dutch as a second language) for foreigners and Turkish for adults at various language schools and companies.

Ronald
NT2 and/or Dutch (possibly support for your thesis - I have two titles: MA and MEd). I was '(Nova) teacher of the year (2019)'.
Dutch? Just say it ... preparation exams? Fine. Do you want to know about spelling? Just ask. Larger vocabulary? Practice speaking/presenting? Grammar? Naturally. I teach and teach (semi) illiterates and academics, and I feel at home with all of them. Feedback from a student (non-Apprentus): "Hi Ronald I will miss our wonderful lessons so much [...]. You teach in such a warm and pleasant way, I enjoyed every second of it. [...] Thank you for this educational time and the nice words I received from you. Yours sincerely" [name known]
