A0 - A2 Level Turkish Supported Dutch - Preparation for Citizenship Exams (Inburgeringsexamen)
48.23 £ /h
Hello! Since 2023, I have been continuing my Dutch lessons with pleasure with students who live or want to live in the Netherlands and want to prepare for the citizenship exam (Inburgeringsexamen).

As an educator who completed the citizenship exams a long time ago, with my 12 years of foreign language teaching experience, I help you with language learning and exam preparation, while also guiding you by sharing tips for the exam.

While I plan my lessons in line with the needs of the student, I include listening, reading, speaking and writing skills in the lesson plan in accordance with the exam format. I also support you in the fifth step of the exam, KNM (Kennis Nederlandse Maatschappij - Dutch Social Knowledge). You can request lessons that cover all parts of the exam or specific language skills (listening, reading, speaking and writing).

If you want to learn Dutch, you can always contact me.

Good luck in your journey of learning Dutch!

Best wishes,
Merve

Classes are adapted according to your child's interests and needs. Students are actively engaged in hands-on activities so that they have fun while they learn! I use a multitude of techniques to keep children interested but especially enjoy incorporating science, music, and art.

Pricing:
In an effort to make lessons more affordable for families, I charge the same amount for groups (up to 4) and individuals.

Hi there!

My name is Anna and I am a native English speaker living in North Holland.

I currently teach English at a bilingual school to vwo/havo/vmbo students (secondary school students). Next to that I tutor English professionally from A2 to C1 level.

If you want to improve your written/spoken English in a professional business setting, then I can assist with this. I can also help prepare students for language exams, or improve their general English proficiency.

I have worked as a teacher for over 5 years and during that time I have gained experience teaching to students as young as 4 years old, as well as adults. I am open to tutoring any age from A2 level and up.

I am currently available Monday late afternoons/evenings, Wednesday late afternoons/evenings, and Friday late afternoon/evenings. I am flexible on weekends.

About me:
I studied psychology and organizational leadership in the US. I worked as a primary school teacher and then as a high school teacher in the US, in addition to tutoring independently and at tutoring centers. After relocating here, I attended Utrecht universiteit to become a certified teacher in the Netherlands. I currently work at a bilingual school and teach English grammar and literature to students between 12 and 16 years of age. I spend my limited free time cooking in excess and feeding my friends/neighbors/colleagues, or exploring the city, or taking care of my two unnamed fish, or attempting to bake (I am bad a terrible baker, ironic given my name!). Ultimately, I am passionate about teaching and learning, so that is how I spend most of my days.

Hello, I'm Tina, and I'm excited to introduce myself as your potential English tutor!

Background & Education: I'm a 20-year-old bachelors Psychology student at Vrije Universiteit. I have a profound connection to the English language. English has been my first and native language throughout my life, providing me with an innate understanding. I pursued English A Higher Level in the International Baccalaureate program, where I achieved an IB grade of 6 earning both academic excellence and a deep appreciation for the subject.

Teaching Experience: I had the privilege of working as an assistant at a Montessori International Preschool during my gap year, where I worked closely with children from the ages of 2-7, and allowed me to learn and grow, gaining more experiences.

As a tutor I think patience is an important factor. I believe that everyone learns in their own pace, and that I will always be patient, and adjusting learning styles or ways of teaching when needed.

If you have any questions feel free to contact me and I hope we are able to embark on this journey together!
