I teach Dutch (think of speaking/practising Dutch together/grammar/spelling etc.)
* Learn Dutch via Teams or Zoom
* Learn Dutch in a cafe or at home
* Learn Dutch by walking in the park and chatting about everyday topics

I like to keep it varied - a fun lesson but with loads of grammar improvement, vocabulary but also games to consolidate these. Lessons are tailor-made to what you want. I use several books and methods to make your lesson topnotch. I teach online via Zoom or here in my home. Every lesson of 50 min I sent all details home so you can revise what we have done and you can see your homework.

I am a Certified Teacher of Dutch as an Additional Language and I have a University Degree in teaching Dutch Language and Literature from Leiden University. I have specialized in teaching Dutch as a Second Language at Hogeschool Amsterdam.

I have lived abroad for 17 years so know a lot of living abroad. Having been an expatriate myself I like teaching people from other cultures. I speak good English and have some understanding of German, French and Spanish.
I have been teaching Dutch since 1995 in the States - in Iowa - and since 2016 in Leiden - when I came back from living in Scotland, South East Asia and the States - in my own little company Doses of Dutch. Since 2019 I teach two groups of students in Wassenaar for four mornings a week as well.

Usually people buy a package of ten lessons.

The content of the lesson depends on what the student / pupil needs. If he or she wants to learn how to write or spell better, or would like guidance with homework or with making a paper, a book summary or a speaking assignment, then I would like to help. I also like to give writing advice for an essay or story written by the student / pupil.

Private Dutch lessons, all levels. Focusing on the aspects that are most challenging for you (for example getting more experience in actually speaking Dutch). I used multiple methods, books, strategies to fit your needs. I can help preparing for inburgeringsexamen or staatsexamen.
I am trained as teacher, I did a master in economics and I am a certified Dutch teacher with special training to teach Dutch as a foreign language. I'm also a official examiner for the NT2 Staatsexamen.
I started AmsterDutch in 2009 and I'm teaching Dutch since then.
Lessons can be face to face or online.

Do you want extra support with mathematics in the lower grades of pre-university education and upper grades of senior general secondary education or
in math and language at primary school? For example, for your school advice?
I have a lot of experience with tutoring. The lessons can also be given online if desired, or somewhere in a public location that is convenient. Students on their way to their cito test for math and language, or for their school tests can come to me.

When you come to live in the Netherlands as a foreigner, it is important that you have a good command of the language. Speaking skills first where listening skills are indispensable.
We will get to work so that you can manage in the Dutch language. Together we will see what is needed for this.

I have an NT-2 certificate and experience as an NT-2 teacher for small groups.

I am a driven and enthusiastic teacher. I teach Dutch, Knowledge of Dutch society, Citizenship and Study skills to students of the International Transition Class. I also work in adult education as a teacher of Dutch for non-native speakers.
I use a mix of different methods, but I prefer to adapt the lessons to the needs and abilities of the student. Tailor-made studying at your level and pace!
Because I speak several languages, I can easily explain the differences and similarities in language.

I work at an international language school and I teach Dutch to mainly expats.
My focus is on pronunciation, vocabulary and grammar. It is important for language proficiency to keep practicing regularly, which is why I give homework after the lesson. By mainly speaking and doing role plays, I get a lot out of my students and they gain more confidence in speaking the language.

*** THE COURSE: This course is designed for adults (18+) who want to learn Dutch in a structured and motivating way. We’ll use the textbook "Nederlands in Gang", a complete method that takes you up to level A2 (and beyond, see below!). It’s a very comprehensive program, which makes guided lessons with an experienced teacher the perfect way to follow it.

*** YOUR TEACHER... CHRISTIAAN: My name is Christiaan, and I’m a Dutch teacher with over 8 years of experience teaching at an international school. I was born in the Netherlands and speak both Dutch and English fluently. Besides teaching languages, I’m also a piano teacher and I am writing a Dutch children’s book. People often say that those from Haarlem speak the clearest Dutch — so you’ll be in expert hands!

*** YOUR CURRENT ABILITY: If you already have some knowledge of Dutch, we can continue with the next books in the same series (Nederlands in Actie, Nederlands op Niveau, Nederlands naar Perfectie). The method includes self-checks and progress tests so you can clearly track your improvement.

*** THE LESSONS: Lessons are held online via Microsoft Teams or Zoom. If you live near Haarlem, you’re welcome to join in person. Weekly participation is essential. Learning a language takes dedication, but with consistent effort, you’ll be amazed at your progress. Whether you can study 15 minutes a day or an hour, we’ll find a rhythm that fits your schedule! Ready to start your Dutch journey? Let’s begin!
