Dutch for beginners and Intermediates at a conversational level

My name is Valérie. As a native speaker of French and Dutch and graduated as an interpreter of French/Dutch I give with great pleasure French language courses and Dutch for expats in Amsterdam/ Amstelveen for years to all different kinds of students. Lessons can also be followed online. The lessons are given in French or Dutch and are mainly focused on speaking the language. They are therefore practically oriented. The lessons are tailor-made because I follow the wishes and goals of the students during the first lesson. I think it is important that the student experiences pleasure in learning the language, it is and stays a way of communication!

I have successfully completed 6 VWO and passed an English Cambridge exam. Currently, I am a law student with a passion for languages, geology and history and I like to share the knowledge - in peace and with full understanding of the student - and together I look for the best method to make this work! I have been working as a tutor for primary and secondary school students for more than 5 years and have experience with people / children who have difficult learning, have little motivation or where the penny has just not yet fallen.

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.

As a certified teacher and native Dutch speaker, I offer private lessons tailored to your specific needs and interests. Whether you want to improve your Dutch for work, feel more at ease in social situations, or dive into Dutch literature in the original language, I’ll help you get there with lessons built around your goals. I also offer support with exam preparation and general study guidance. Our sessions will include a variety of learning methods—such as reading texts, doing exercises, listening to audio, and practicing real-life conversation. Grammar will always serve a purpose: helping you use the language confidently and naturally, without getting bogged down in rules. Language is a tool to communicate, and I believe your lessons should reflect that. So whatever your motivation, that’s what we’ll work toward—together. I speak English at C2 level (IELTS certified) and conversational French and German. I’m happy to explain grammar and concepts in any of these languages if that’s helpful to you.

Of Dutch origin, open to the world, I have always been passionate about languages and international exchanges. I would like to put my skills and experience to the service of companies looking for people with my profile. I have an extroverted personality and I have a sense of interpersonal skills that I was able to develop during my numerous linguistic trips. I have no difficulty speaking in front of large gatherings and feel in my element surrounded by a cosmopolitan audience. During my training, I favor an oral and intensive practice of the language while having fun.

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.

Dutch is my native language. I can teach in English, French and German. I am retired and very flexible with my time. The language is native and has the courage to speak English. I have English and Dutch owners. I also speak French and German. I am reserved and flexible with my time.

Né à Bruxelles, étant enfant de parents néerlandophones, je comprends très vite, qu'en Belgique, les langues saont la clef pour le succès.

Grace à l'utilisation quotidienne, je peux me vanter d'être parfaitement bilingue et je sui prêt à vous accompagner dans votre parcours scolaire pour vous aider avec les défis que vous pose la langue de Vondel.
