Dutch for non-native speakers and primary school students

Von 18.26 $ /Std

Hello, my name in Lies (Liz) and I’m from Belgium. Languages have interested me since I was little, that's why I want to make a job out of my interests. Sharing with others what you have learned and not let your knowledge go to waste, is one of the most fulfilling things there is.

I earned a Bachelor’s degree in Japanology and a minor in Korean Studies. At first Japanese and Dutch don't seem to have much in common, but by learning a language yourself you come to understand the learning process and the needs of the students. I mainly like to teach those who don't have any prior knowledge of Dutch and primary school students.

I currently work as a translator and a tutor on different platforms. During my student years, I also did various jobs that included teaching certain subjects to people/children. You can see that I have enough teaching experience.

The materials I use for my lessons are supported by the government. The language I use for teaching is usually English or Dutch. I like to focus on the native language my students speak and try to find similar sounds, words or grammar between the original and target language. From my experience, I noticed that it really helps my students to grasp the meaning of certain sentences or grammatical structures and their pronunciation improved really fast. In my opinion, the practical part is more important than the theoretical part, so I use a lot of exercises in my lessons. You only learn a language by using it.

Of course, if you have certain things you want to work on, or you already have some knowledge of Dutch, we can especially focus on those things. I’m very adaptable. But the most important thing is to love your language learning journey. The more fun you have doing something, the more you'll feel encouraged to get even better.

Über mich

De Aziatische cultuur heeft mij al van kindsbeen af geïnteresseerd, daarom heb ik ook besloten om hier mijn studierichting van te maken. Ik heb mijn bachelordiploma behaald in de richting Japanologie (met minor in Koreaans), en kijk ernaar uit mijn kennis met anderen te delen.

Bildung

In het middelbaar heb ik talen gestudeerd en in deze richting wou ik verdergaan. Ik heb een bachelordiploma behaald aan de Katholieke Universiteit Leuven in de richting Japanologie, met een minor in Koreaans.

Ik zit in mijn eerste jaar van lesgeven, maar ik heb wel gewerkt als monitor en animator, dus ik heb al een paar jaar ervaring in het onderwijzen.

Korean for beginners in a fun yet informative way

19.48 $ /Std

For my lessons I mainly base myself on the Integrated Korean beginning 1&2 books and video material to vary it up a bit. In my opinion, learning grammar and speaking skills is the most important, but if there is interest in, for example, listening skills, reading skills, writing skills, ... this can certainly be practiced.

I took Korean classes at university and obtained a Postgraduate certificate in Korean Studies. So I am familiar with the difficulties of this "language learning journey", and thanks to this experience I know how to guide my students through them.

Japanese for beginners and intermediate level, JLPT level N5 to N3 (from A1 to B2)

20.69 $ /Std

Asian culture has interested me since childhood, which is why I decided to make this my field of study. I completed my bachelor's degree in Japanology and look forward to sharing my knowledge with others. I also have some experience in teaching, thanks to previous student jobs. I currently also teach on various online platforms, my students are very satisfied with these lessons.

For my lessons I mainly base myself on the books of Genki 1 and 2, and video material for some variety. In my opinion, learning grammar and speaking skills is the most important, but if there is an interest in, for example, listening skills, reading skills, writing skills, etc., this can certainly also be practiced.

I am originally from Flanders, Hasselt, and lived in Liège for a few years, now I live in Tongeren, a 20-minute drive from Liège.

I offer you individual help in Dutch.

Because every student is different, these courses are aimed at helping you learn Dutch in a way that you enjoy. To progress in the best way and to work effectively. This is to acquire and adapt an individual working method.

DUTCH FOR FOREIGNERS - ALL LEVELS - A0 to C1 / ONLINE LESSONS VIA SKYPE.
I teach beginners and advanced students. Special training is possible for integration exams or state exams.
All frequencies possible; once or several times a week. Lesson duration: 60, 90 and 120 minutes. Most students prefer lessons of 90 or 120 minutes, because 60 minutes is considered too short. I give CUSTOMIZED lessons at the pace that suits you. If you want to speed up, we speed up; if you want to slow down, we slow down; if you want to practice more, we practice more; everything depends on your general level of education and the time you have available - outside of class hours - to study and do homework.
Classes are available from 9am to 5pm; evening classes are negotiable. The available time slots on the Apprentus website are an indication only; since I do both short and long projects, I can often schedule you in at short notice, so you can start your course almost immediately.

NT2 - Dutch for speakers of other languages: help with the integration exam, State Exam I and II

Dutch lessons for non-native speakers at all levels, from A0 to C1. All frequencies possible: once or several times a week. Lessons of 60, 90 or 120 minutes. I adapt my lessons to your pace. I teach from Monday to Friday from 9:00 to 17:00. Evening lessons after 17:00 are also possible (in consultation); + 30%.
The times that there is room for lessons are only an indication!! Usually there is room at short notice, since I accept both short and long projects.

As non-Dutch speaking parents, it is certainly not easy to teach your children Dutch or help them become more fluent in the new language. Who wants some extra exercise for their kids? I would like to help you with that. As their vocabulary expands and their sentences become more fluent, your children will become more confident. A good command of the Dutch language is certainly to their advantage, both now and in the future.

Do your children need some help with their homework, especially with their Dutch, then I can help with that.

Even as non-native-speaking adults, it is sometimes difficult to have enough exercise. That is why adults who want to make progress in speaking the Dutch language are welcome here! We can practice the everyday language together. Conversing is the best way to learn a new language.

Anyone want to learn Persian? Then I am here to help you with that. Here too, I mainly work on communication.

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.

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.

2021-2022:

Through Apprentus and other websites, I assisted several younger students (ages 5-15) in Bern and Geneva, helping them improve their skills in subjects such as Maths and French.

My name is Yvette, I am a primary school teacher and educational psychologist and have more than 10 years of experience teaching Dutch abroad.
During an initial consultation, we'll discuss your needs. Why do you want to learn Dutch, and which aspects of the language should receive the most attention? Everyone has different goals and desires, and my lessons are tailored to them. I teach everyone, young and old, who wants to learn Dutch or improve their skills. I believe it's important to structure the lessons so that everyone gets the most out of each hour, while also allowing room for variety and improvisation. My experience as a teacher and educational psychologist has taught me how to quickly put people at ease. Moreover, I've personally experienced what it's like to learn a foreign language (German and English), so I can easily empathize.
