Hello, my name is Toni and I am a certified coach with a passion for languages and teaching. I offer beginner-friendly Dutch and French lessons that are practical, interactive, and tailored to your personal goals.

My lessons are designed for students who want to:
• Build a solid foundation in Dutch or French (grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation).
• Gain confidence in everyday conversations (introductions, shopping, travel, social situations).
• Improve listening and speaking skills through simple dialogues and practice.
• Learn at their own pace in a supportive and motivating environment.

As a coach, I know how important encouragement and structure are when starting something new. That’s why my teaching style is patient, clear, and motivating. I combine explanations with real-life examples, exercises, and conversational practice so you can quickly start using the language in daily life.

Whether you want to learn Dutch or French for travel, work, or personal development, I will guide you step by step and help you enjoy the learning journey.

Let’s start building your confidence in Dutch or French together!

Dutch is my mother tongue, I am Dutch and I suggest you improve your level of Dutch by focusing on conversation - pronunciation - learning to express yourself well - convincing shyness to speak. Of course also academic support - explanation of grammar - reading and understanding texts - writing and editing. Preparing for job interviews, raising the level of Dutch for professional use to a higher level, working with university students to prepare for their Dutch exams etc etc. I adapt my lessons to the needs of each student. With advanced students we discuss the news based on newspaper articles.
I speak fluent French, English, and Italian. I am a lawyer by training with 30 years of experience in international business. The ultimate goal of my lessons: to love Dutch and prepare for your future!

➤ Learn French with a successful technique: the main objective is to acquire bases or improve your level in French (written & oral: pronunciation, comprehension, language construction, communication, conjugation, grammar & vocabulary).

I like to use different methods to teach French to students. It can be through songs, drama, role play or videos. I also very often use situations close to the student's experience, such as describing places they have been or talking about what they have experienced. At the same time, I teach the grammar rules to the student. I now live in regions where French has been spoken for over 30 years. Because I have learned French myself (and I am still learning other languages), I can easily put myself in a student's shoes. I can teach in French, Dutch, English, German and Russian.

Hello to all of you!
I welcome you to my profile.
You would like to learn French and I would also like to teach you French.
Fortunately, French is my native language. I live in Brussels where I have taught many French courses to French speakers and also to non-French speakers in the framework of FLE (French as a Foreign Language), mostly face-to-face and also some distance learning. I want to expand the use of distance learning.
Hence my presence on this site.
My greatest wish is to help you make as much progress as possible in French.
To this end, I use a judicious combination of oral and written exchanges.
I use these conversations to introduce grammatical concepts and expand your vocabulary. All this in a fun and friendly atmosphere!
You will have to express yourself a lot in French, because my level of Dutch is average. In fact, I speak it at a "normal" pace, but with a more limited vocabulary and expressions than yours.
This may seem a little frustrating at first, but it is a real benefit to you as it forces you to express yourself in French as much as possible!
It's all in your favor!
Please contact me as soon as possible so that we can start a fruitful cooperation.

As a Frenchman who has lived in New York, I use French and English daily, which allows me to clearly explain concepts and support my students through the challenges of language learning. I myself enjoy learning new languages—I'm currently studying Indonesian and German—so I understand what it feels like to be a language learner. My classes are for children, teenagers, and adults, from complete beginners to advanced learners, and are always tailored to your individual goals.

Whether you're learning French for school, work, travel, or simply out of a passion for the language, I'll create a personalized learning path just for you. I like to incorporate your interests and passions into the lessons: we can use videos, texts, music, or podcasts depending on your preferences and learning style.

My approach is caring, flexible and student-centered, with the aim of developing your confidence and allowing you to progress at your own pace.

Do you want to learn Chinese, whether for your child, your studies, your work, a trip, or simply out of curiosity? I offer Mandarin courses adapted for children, teenagers, and adults, from beginner to intermediate level!

Currently in my final year of a Master's degree in Chinese studies, I speak four languages (French, Dutch, English and Chinese) and I had the opportunity to live and study for a year in Beijing, at the 外交学院 (China Foreign Affairs University).

My career has also been marked by several participations in the Chinese Bridge Competition, a major international Chinese language competition. I twice achieved second place in the Belgian final and then participated in the storytelling event (故事会), where I reached the Top 50 worldwide.

My method is based on a structured progression inspired in particular by the HSK, while being adapted to the objectives and pace of each student. We can work on pronunciation and tones, vocabulary, grammar, characters, listening comprehension as well as oral and written expression.

For children and teenagers, I use an interactive approach with games, stories, pictures, dialogues, and age-appropriate activities. For adults, I can tailor the lessons more to conversation, practical Chinese, everyday situations, travel, studies, or a professional context.

I also wish to share my passion for Chinese culture, which I had the opportunity to explore in depth during my year in Beijing. Since language and culture are closely linked, the courses can also incorporate elements of traditions, festivals, history, and daily life in China.

Each lesson is therefore personalized according to the student's level, age and objectives.

Whether you are a complete beginner or wish to consolidate an intermediate level, my goal is to enable you to progress in Chinese in a serious, structured and motivating way.
