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.

Catharina is an extremely skilled and professional teacher and I can only highly recommend her lessosns.
Catharina ist eine ausgezeichnete und sympathische Lehrerin mit viel Erfahrung. Sie bietet einen strukturierten Unterricht an, dass mir die niederländische Sprache einfach näher bringt. Ich freue mich auf die weiteren Stunden mit ihr.
Excellent session. I am fully satisfied with the approach that Catharina took, where she first tried to understand the level and needs of the student and tailored the class for the student.
The lessons were perfect. She was able to support me in every domain whether it was vocabulary, grammar or other things I needed help with. She is always prepared before every lesson and takes time to review work inbetween lessons. Great teacher!
Extremely helpful and fun lessons. I can really recommend it!

English, French and Dutch academic reinforcement courses + CEB and CE1D preparation
If your child is having difficulties in school, I would love to be able to help them overcome them. I had the opportunity to work in several non-profit organizations (Schola ULB, Youth Club, CIFA, ABEF) where I helped young adolescents to understand their subject in French, English and Dutch. I also helped them prepare for their exams, including the CEB and CE1D. We will work together on their lessons, we will review the vocabulary and grammar they need to know and we will work on their difficulties in order to overcome them. In view of the current situation, I teach only online.

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.

Aline
Le néerlandais de A à Z pour petit•es et grand•es !
Je peux vous enseigner le néerlandais, à vous ou à votre/vos enfant(s), que ce soit à domicile ou en ligne. Nous pouvons fonctionner de différentes manières, par exemple à l’aide de jeux, listes de vocabulaire, et Google Drive. Hâte de vous rencontrer !

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.

Irma
Voorbereiding Inburgeringsexamen/ Inburgeren/ Preparation integration exam
Are you preparing for the civic integration exam/ het inburgeringsexamen? I would be happy to help you pass the exam successfully. We will use practice exams to get you more comfortable with the questions and I'll give you tips. We will also look into the grammar points that are necessary for the exam. We will work on all 4 aspects: speaking skills, writing skills. reading skills and listening skills. I would like to hear what your current level of Dutch is, so we can make a proper planning for you. The prices listed are for a class for 1 person.

Elfriede
Learn Dutch as a second language adapted to your needs!
I am a very experienced teacher in Dutch as a second language. I love working with people from other countries because it widens my view and apart from teaching you a new language, I will learn from you about new cultures. For me, learning a new language is first of all learning to get around in daily life. So, a beginners course will always start with this basic information: introducing yourself; making appointments with the dentist, hairdresser, and so on; shopping; going to a restaurant; etc. On an intermediate level, we will work on your speaking skills: having a conversation with your colleagues about your weekend, reading a newspaper article and talk about it; talking about your hobbies, etc. With advanced students we can work on whatever field they need; for example work or other things that are important for you.

Marcelo
Learn Dutch in a short time - experienced coach (20 years of experience) State exam NT2 trainer - inspired to teach Dutch to expats
A qualified language coach with 22 years of experience offers intensive Dutch lessons in a small class or online. I give many Dutch NT2 lessons to expats and in preparation for an integration exam. Specialized in guiding for the State Exam I and II. Special exam coach. In October 2023 I will also start groups again. We have an excellent classroom in the center of Rotterdam, near the Beurs metro station, lessons with small homogeneous groups (little difference in level). We mainly go for quality and not just a lesson. I am really involved in the student's progress. You can also choose the online lesson package with Whereby, Teams or Zoom in a comfortable way. Online classes are one-on-one or maximum one-on-two, for better results. My English is fluent, as well as Portuguese and Spanish. I understand the difficulties of overcoming barriers for Latin languages and for expats in general, as I have also been an expat. Online lessons last 75 minutes once a week for 10 weeks to reach a higher level. This is the normal speed. Including exam training (A-2 or Staatsexamen) and exam at the end. Intensive training ? That can also be done in five to ten full days, I am used to giving these very intensive trainings to CEOs or managers who want it faster and more intensive ... all lessons within 3 or 4 weeks. Based on the European system A-1, A-2, B-1, B-2 and C-1 As soon as students improve their knowledge of Dutch, I always advise and coach them to take the Staatsexamen I or II, the only formal Certificate in this country, recognized by employers and universities. I will try to switch to conversation after a few lessons, to put your knowledge into practice as soon as possible. Don't get too caught up in the grammar. Teaching is my ultimate passion and even after 22 years it feels like the first time and students always feel inspired to overcome the obstacles. I also teach you about Dutch social culture, which is intertwined in the course and is strongly related to the language.

Femke

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.

Dutch for non-native speakers, conversation, pronunciation and grammar
Dutch conversation, pronunciation and grammar. Are you Spanish or English speaking and would you like to learn Dutch for work, education or social contacts: Then you have come to the right place! I speak fluent Spanish and English so can explain grammar in your own language. I adapt my lessons to the level and wishes of my students. And "last but not least"....... Learning should be fun! I take care of that with varied teaching materials and a joke every now and then.
