More about me:
Hi! My name is Vivianne and I am a Dutch teacher. Because of my education in International Business & Languages and International Business Communication I will not only teach you a language, I will teach you how to communicate in the interesting language called Dutch!

In my classes I do mainly focus on:
- Speaking
- Improving your grammar skills
- Learn you more vocabulary through reading, listening, watching videos, games etc.

Of course if you want to improve other things (e.g. writing) we can customize the lessons.

For me it is important that you will feel confident to speak Dutch and understand the Dutch a bit better.

I am very enthusiastic, open minded and happy to help you in the best way possible.

Hope to meet you soon!

Life Coach for 'newcomers' in The Netherlands (e.g. students, expats)

40 £ /h

Hi! My name is Vivianne. I have been living in Amsterdam for two years now and I do love this city! I'm originally Dutch and I have lived in several countries (different places in The Netherlands, Hong Kong, Peru). That feeling of entering a new city is amazing; all those new people, places and beautiful spots but it can also make you a bit insecure about your decisions. Did you choose the right studies or job? You moved for love but what's next? What about new friends? You're not alone, many people around you experience the same. Next to my own experiences, I work as Dutch teacher (Dutch as a second language) and therefore know how 'newcomers' experience their new life. I want to help people feeling happier and content with their decisions. I have a background in (international) marketing, languages and intercultural communication and due to this combination I have a depth intercultural understanding.

So, if you want to talk about...

- Your life in The Netherlands (e.g. studies, job)
- Your decisions (e.g. feelings, emotions regarding any subject)
- Your future plans (e.g. staying in The Netherlands, moving)

And want to feel...

- More confident in your studies / job
- Happier in your personal and social life
- More integrated in the Dutch culture

Without feeling a patient in need of an expensive psychologist/psychiatrist, feel free to contact me. We can have a short intake so you can tell me something about yourself and make a plan for further meetings.

If you're interested in Dutch lessons as well we could, of course, customize the sessions.

I am a French teacher. I have been teaching French, language, and communication since 2012. I speak Arabic, French, Spanish, a little English, and a little Turkish.
I explain my lessons in French, Arabic, or Spanish, depending on your choice.
During the sessions, I explain the course that suits your needs. There is also the option to create an open discussion so that you can speak fluently over time and avoid grammatical gaps.
And at the end of each session, I give "lessons" with "exercises" to do as homework to continue our support and increase your level.

Bring a notebook for this training (or any suitable means) to take notes and keep them.

Communication is the most versatile and sought-after skill today. Whether it's to succeed in an oral exam, convince during a job interview, lead a professional meeting, or simply overcome shyness and express oneself clearly, speaking is something that can be learned and practiced.

I offer you tailored support to unlock your potential, structure your thinking and give impact to your interventions, both oral and written (in person or online).
The strategic focus of our work:
Ease and Oral Eloquence: In-depth work on non-verbal communication (posture, gaze, gestures) and paraverbal communication (voice management, intonation, rhythm, silences).

Managing stage fright and stress: Breathing and grounding techniques to overcome the fear of public speaking and transform stress into positive energy.

Structuring techniques: Learning impactful argumentative structures. How to capture attention from the first few seconds, maintain audience interest, and conclude with a powerful message.

Written expression techniques: Clarity of style, choice of vocabulary, writing of professional emails, reports or impactful speeches.

University English Instructor| Started teaching English 9 years ago| Specializing in Conversational English.

My teaching approach is designed to develop communication skills above all. We watch or read materials, such as videos, articles, stories, poems, caricatures, then discuss them; we act out situations from everyday life; we take positions and practice debates. However, this doesn’t mean that we just practice speaking. I also make sure the learner is not running in circles. I’m here to ensure that they do not keep repeating the same mistakes or keep using the same expressions over and over in conversation.
In order to keep making progress, I take my student on a journey that involves:
• Improving their grammar.
• Fixing their pronunciation.
• Enriching their vocabulary by learning to use new words and common idioms.
By the end of this course, you should be able to speak English fluently and confidently.

PS: Because of my academic specialty, I also help with academic writing and creative writing.
