Dutch Language, Culture, Tutoring and Test Preparation

Àpd 189.51 CNY /h

This class is to help those studying Dutch at various levels. I'm currently a student of Modern Languages at university, and I was brought up in the Netherlands and have studied it to a high level of fluency.

The focus of this class is to improve fluency in a friendly and relaxing setting, as well as improving technical aspects like grammar at the student's pace. All levels are welcome from absolute beginner to advanced. My goal is to get students to reach a high level of language without feeling pressured or overworked, and to get them comfortable in using the language with native speakers in everyday settings.

Présentation

I am currently a student studying Modern Languages, namely Spanish, German and Dutch.

I have been interested in teaching for a long time and I am currently a Language Ambassador with my university. What this means is that I go into schools and talk with children and teenagers about the importance of language learning, as well as devising lesson plans and activities to help them with their language development.

As a teacher I try to get my students to relax as much as possible and learn languages with little pressure. Homework can be set if the student requires it. I try to tailor lessons to each student's individual need and requirement so that they can achieve their linguistic goals at their pace.

I am also saving up for my TEFL qualification, which I hope to achieve next year.

Want to improve your English? Tutoring and advice for students.

151.61 CNY /h

Through this class I hope to help strengthen and refine the student's English skills. This class will be flexible and catered to the student's needs, whether that be test preparation, grammar, CV help or just general chats to improve your English!

I am a native English speaker looking for more experience teaching and tutoring before I start by TEFL course. This course will be challenging and vary according to the student, but a typical class will consist of a chat, followed by a grammar topic, followed by a pre-set homework assignment discussion. Example of homework may be to write a short essay, or to read an article. All levels welcome!

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!

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.

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.

2021-2022:

Hello!
My name is Tyra, and I teach Dutch to those who want to learn an international language that's quite different from French. Dutch is spoken in the Netherlands, Flanders, and also in South Africa and Suriname, with some variations. Dutch is more than just a language; it's a culture! If you're interested in participating and learning actively, while playing and having fun, my classes are open!

Discover Dutch courses designed for French speakers who want to progress with confidence, precision, and enjoyment. As a native speaker, born in Hasselt and raised in Flanders, I have studied diction, elocution, and drama. My Dutch is therefore not just my mother tongue: it's a language I master, use, and pronounce with professional precision.

I am a sworn translator and interpreter for Dutch and have been teaching since 2005. I have taught in recognized institutions such as the Language Academy, the CLL, My Sherpa, as well as in compulsory education, including language immersion programs. This diverse experience allows me to adapt my methods to all levels: beginners, advanced learners, children, adults, and professionals.

My courses cover all skills: listening comprehension, conversation, reading, writing, and pronunciation. Each student benefits from personalized, structured, and motivating support in a caring environment where progress is tangible.

As a self-employed person with a secondary occupation, my activities are declared and I am up to date with my contributions to the UCM.

As a third-year education student, passionate about pedagogy and student support, I offer tutoring in English and Dutch.

Patient, attentive, and caring, I always give my best to help students progress in a trusting and non-judgmental environment. My goal is for each student to understand the material, gain confidence, and develop effective study methods.

To best support my students, I use a variety of teaching methods, including learning through play, which makes lessons more engaging and dynamic. My teaching background has given me the necessary skills to adapt to each student's level, pace, and needs.

I primarily base my approach on the material covered in class to help students achieve the objectives set by their teachers. Together, we review difficult concepts, do exercises, and I also provide methodological and organizational tips to foster independence.

My courses are aimed at students from 3rd grade to 3rd grade, as well as older students who wish to review and consolidate their language foundations.
