Dutch courses: beginner, intermediate to advanced.

From 16.97 £ /h

The mastering of language is important, it opens up job opportunities when you're an adult and helps you in socializing with peers when you're a child. This language class is for anybody that would like to improve his language skills in Dutch from a native speaker that has completed his whole education in this language and socializes with other native speakers. The language level I employ can be fine-tuned to your own: from basic talks to some more advanced discussions.

Programming lessons for novice, beginner and intermediate levels

26.8 £ /h

Programming is a handy skill that any person can pick up at any rate and age. It allows us to think in abstract terms writing concise instructions to a computer to perform a certain task: be it a basic addition to more advanced software engineering. As a graduate of the Free University Brussels, I put my skills into good use to teach people about programming in order to give them the required insights to succeed in the domain. My skill set is in Python, Java and Javascript with a good understanding in C.

Approaching from a true native's perspective, I instruct and assist with both educational and business English in a multi-faceted nature covering a wide range of areas including comprehension, conversation, grammar, and situational skills, in addition to working on general language skills and accent training.

Serdane

My name is Serdane and I offer Dutch lessons to secondary school students and adults who find it difficult to develop a way of working that suits them. Extroverted and bubbly...and above all, a lot of humor!

Everyone learns in their own way. Some people learn languages intuitively by engaging in conversations. Others need rigorous exposure to grammatical concepts before launching into practice...in short, there are as many ways to learn as there are students! This is why I do not adopt a rigid method, but rather I adapt to the specificities of each student. I assess their level, their strengths, their possible weaknesses or delays, and I adjust my course accordingly. My priority is to give confidence to the student: Dutch is accessible to everyone when it is taught well!

I believe in the effectiveness of active teaching methods: I encourage student participation as much as possible, guiding them to discover what works best for them. This ultimately allows him to continue his learning independently.

My areas of expertise:
- Enhancement
- catching up
- Grammar reviews
- Conversation course
- Work method (organization, schedule of revisions, etc.)
- Support for beginners

My price includes complete academic support (private lessons, possibility of asking questions outside of class hours, assistance with writing and correcting questions, etc.). If necessary, I provide specific help for the preparation of questions or exams in more complex subjects.

I produce all of my course materials for each student. So there is no need for you to buy a learning book. However, if you are already working from a book, it is entirely possible for me to adapt to it.

I aim my lesson at Dutch speakers who want to learn French, who have difficulties with it at school, or who simply want to refine their conversation skills.
French is my native language, and I have studied Latin and Greek, which gave me a deeper understanding of French grammar and language.

Nicolas

I'm a 33 years old french teacher and I've been living here in Brussels for 11 years, 8 of them as a french teacher. Before that I studied political sciences and had a couple of experiences in public communication.
As a teacher, I gave classes in languages centers (such as Berlitz or Semantics), so I worked and continue working in different environments like lawyer cabinets, hospitals, companies or NGO based in Brussels or with people learing french through unemployment programs). But I also give private lessons, like the one we might do together. This brought me to work with different linguistic, cultural and professionnal backgrounds as well as with very different age classes (from 5 to 65).
My class is essentially based on improving communication skills, that is to say that I give an advantage to the practice of verbal expression, through simulations (of professional situations, like doing a public presentation or conducting a meeting,...) and conversation (around documents and medias like articles, audiovisual items,...).
Nevertheless, when learning or doing the revision of grammar points is needed, I organize grammar items to work on too (the use of the subjonctif, la concordance des temps, how to express hypothesis,...). For that, I use primarly the book Grammaire Progressive du Français but can also use different material (I worked with some product of the editions Alter Ego more centered on workplace oriented needs for example).
So my methode is "taylor-made" as I adapt the content around the needs of each students in term of their communication objectives.
Don't hesitate to ask me if I forgot to mention anything in this quick profile!

In Belgium, Dutch is a necessity, from primary school to professional life. Whether it is to succeed in a Dutch course at primary, secondary, university or high school, or to land a job or communicate more easily with your colleagues, I have the course you need !

With a mixture of theory (grammar, vocabulary) and various exercises, I adapt to your needs and desires. Do you work in a particular field that requires specific vocabulary? I gradually include it in the lessons so that learning the language is as useful as possible to you.

A little more about me: I am quadrilingual (French, English, Spanish and Dutch) and I love sharing my knowledge with other people. I have already given various English and Dutch lessons.

Dutch is a fun language with a rich history. You will master the basics very quickly! Would you like to speak the language a little more fluently? Then things quickly become a bit more challenging. Our Dutch course focuses on the acquisition of basic grammar and vocabulary. Then we move on to more advanced topics, tailored to your needs. This will help prepare you for your professional and academic challenges.

Many expats in Brussels live within the bilingual region or on the outskirts of Brussels. Often the choose to enrol their children in Dutch-speaking schools. Next to Brussels, Flanders is the economic hub of the country, with the most employment opportunities. In Belgium, it is therefore almost indispensable to speak this language to find work and settle in your (new) community.

Would you like to discover together which opportunities Dutch can offer you? We tailor this course to your needs, and we'll be sure to cover the most essential professional communication skills, cultural peculiarities you might encounter and all the much-needed topical vocabulary.

Learn Dutch with Me!
I’ve designed my Dutch course to help you learn all the basics you need to speak with confidence.
We’ll focus a lot on speaking. I believe the best way to learn a language is by using it!
In my lessons, we’ll have conversations, role plays, and fun discussions so you can really learn how to talk with people in Dutch.
Of course, we’ll also go over grammar and vocabulary, but always in a practical and easy way.

My native language is French, but I can also teach in English if you prefer.
Let’s make learning Dutch fun and useful together!
