About Me

My name is Irma; I am a social, energetic, positive-thinking, and adventurous person with a lot of international experience in many different areas.
I enjoy working with all age groups and all levels. Classes will take place via Skype. I don't use certain teaching methods, but I like to structure the lessons. The student indicates what he / she wants to learn and I will always translate these wishes into tailor-made lessons.
The lesson should feel like a party; I believe that with a good dose of humor you get the best out of yourself and others.

Education

I studied Communications at Fontys University in Tilburg, The Netherlands.. I graduated in 2009.
After that, I studied Spanish as a Second Language level C1 at the Miguel Cervantes Academy in Madrid, from which I graduated in 2017.

Experience / Qualifications

My love for languages started a couple of years ago when I realized how valuable it is to be able to express yourself fluently in different languages. During my previous job I worked a lot with volunteers. Often these were volunteers who had not mastered the English or Spanish language. This gave me the motivation to help them with all their questions while working; sometimes these were questions about speaking skills, about culture, and other times about their grammatical questions.
Dutch is my mother tongue, the language in which I currently write articles, and also the language that I taught, among others, my Guatemalan husband.

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.

The methodology chosen for my private lessons adapts to the specific needs of the student, from the youngest (learning to read) to the most experienced: preparation for an exam, a trip abroad, a reorientation professional, ... the courses can vary from a conversation table to a more academic structure emphasizing grammar, conjugation and vocabulary, or still be based on the theme of a particular professional sector.

Graduated from the International University of Casablanca as a speech therapist, I learned a lot about oral and written language, and child developmental psychology. I am ready to help your children either with their homework or to learn English or French in a fun way (without necessarily staying 100% academic) online or in person!

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

Improve your skills to better manage your written communication: your objectives in terms of written communication may be diverse and the objective of these sessions is precisely to support you in better achieving them. So, how can we send a clear message, be impactful, create a difference and make an impact?

➤ Whether your objective is personal or professional, written communication is an activity based on techniques, tools, a method and know-how, reflecting the author's involvement in his writing.

➤ Relevant and successful written communication must always be effective and efficient, with clear, simple and impactful messages, creating a match between the message received and the message sent. Coherence between form and content.

➤ So, how can you convince and be impactful, challenge and leave an impression, enhance your content, address your interlocutors relevantly and optimize the quality & clarity of your message? It is precisely a question of going through, applying and deploying practical and effective techniques, taking care of both substance and form, all in a professional or personal context. For this, there are very specific techniques.

➤ Thus, mastered, the practical method allows, through a set of modules supporting pragmatic & concrete techniques, to improve one's written communication.

➤ To achieve your objective and overcome the blockages encountered through concrete techniques & a targeted methodology, it is a question of:
✓decode and use practical communication tools from great authors
✓highlight your text and enhance it to arouse interest
✓create consistency between the message sent and the message received
✓adopt effective, simple, fair and engaging language
✓use sentences, phrases and expressions to be precise, simple, effective & engaging
✓write proactively and express/transmit your ideas/message clearly
✓propose a constructive solution to problems, while drawing on your own relational skills
✓enhance your potential for expression and creativity
✓connect your communication objectives (project, institution, values, ideas, demands, etc.) with the form of your expression
✓practical techniques to encourage reader engagement
✓Strengthen the structure of your communication and develop a convincing argument in order to sell your ideas and projects
✓better prepare your message and arguments; anticipating objections and delicate situations; by preparing and structuring an attractive and convincing presentation framework; by adequately managing difficult situations
(...)

➤ In short, each session combines adapted techniques & practical exercises, so that you can put them into practice immediately, and from the first session.

THE TRAINER
➤ With training from Grande Ecole post-preparatory classes & Ivy League university in the United States, our teacher trainer has specialized and has worked for more than 18 years in the field, in Europe and North America, in renowned international public and private establishments, regularly speaking in forums and conferences, and also offering personalized INDIVIDUAL support, with pedagogy and careful methodology as the watchwords.

➤ PLACE, TIMETABLE, PRICES
✓ Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Fribourg-Zurich-Neuchâtel-Lugano-Basel-Neuchâtel-Berne-Lucerne-Brussels-Luxembourg-Paris-Lyon. But currently, these sessions continue to be offered by videoconference in the current context and in accordance with general demand which is almost unanimous on this subject.

✓ Indeed, apart from the classic advantages of videoconferencing (time saving related to travel & their unforeseen events, eco-responsibility, increased schedule flexibility, etc.), the quality of the session & the interaction remain identical. In addition, the entire exchange, notes and recommendations are immediately transcribed on the dedicated chat.

✓ To support us among ourselves & to be pleasant to you in this sustainable / particular period and in a spirit of solidarity, the fees are temporarily reduced and will not increase after the start of our sessions.

✓ Languages: French/English.

✓ The progress following these private sessions is perceptible from 2 sessions (*2024 study).

✓ As other people do regularly, you can also please your loved ones by offering gift vouchers available all year round.

My teaching philosophy centers on creating a supportive, engaging, and student-focused learning environment. I believe students learn best when they feel confident, motivated, and encouraged to participate actively.

As an online educator, I design interactive and structured lessons tailored to diverse learning styles. I emphasize communicative competence, helping students develop their speaking, listening, reading, and writing skills while building confidence in real-world communication. I integrate grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation naturally into meaningful activities.

By leveraging technology and fostering a positive atmosphere, I aim to inspire a lifelong love of learning and empower students to achieve their full potential.

I teach filmmaking classes with a focus on directing and storytelling for film, TV, and video. In these classes, I guide you through the entire process: from idea and concept to filming and editing your project. We go through every step.

We work with topics such as story structure, script development, scene analysis, and directing actors. You will learn how to convey emotion, tension, and meaning through directorial choices and storytelling.

In addition, I help you with the practical development of your project: how to turn an idea into a plan, how a shooting day works, and how to bring your footage together into a cohesive whole during editing. The entire production.

The lessons are tailored to your level and interests, so that you can work on your own project or skills step by step.

Thanks to my background as a film director, you gain insight into both the creative process and the realities of a film set.

The lessons are personal and practical, and suitable for both children and adults.

The lessons can be given in Dutch or English.

Education is power, and with the rise of AI technology, it is now more important than ever to expand upon our reading and writing skills in order to accurately express our ideals and separate fact from fiction. With weekly courses that support your individual needs as a student, from workshopping academic papers to personal stories, to providing lessons based on literacy, to understanding the components of an academic essay, each lesson is based entirely on the student’s desired outcomes. The goal for these lessons is for students to come out with a greater understanding of the reading and writing process, and to utilize their new skills throughout their entire academic futures.

As a University graduate with a major in English Creative Writing, and having been experienced as an educator and tutor, I can provide any writing or reading assistance needed from Elementary students to adult learners.

Dutch can sometimes be difficult: grammar, spelling, reading comprehension, summarizing, or writing good texts. In these tutoring sessions, I help students step by step to become stronger and more confident in the subject of Dutch.

The lessons are practical, clear, and tailored to the student's level and goals. Together, we work on grammar, vocabulary, spelling, writing skills, speaking skills, and reading comprehension. In addition, I pay attention to study skills, so that students not only achieve better grades but also learn to work more independently.

I use many examples, exercises, and active assignments to make the material understandable and applicable. Whether it concerns VMBO, HAVO, VWO, NT2, or general language proficiency: the lessons are tailored to what the student needs.

My goal is not only to understand Dutch better, but also to develop more enjoyment and confidence in language.
