Dutch – grammar, writing, reading and speaking skills

Translated by GoogleSee original

From 21 £ /h

Dutch can be a challenging language. Spelling, grammar, reading comprehension, writing, or speaking often cause insecurity in both children and adults. In my lessons, I help pupils and course participants step by step to gain more control, confidence, and enjoyment in the Dutch language.

I teach online lessons to:

- pupils in primary and secondary education (vmbo, havo and vwo);
- Dutch children living abroad;
- adults learning Dutch as a second language (NT2);
- students preparing for work, study, or emigration to the Netherlands.

The lessons can be taught entirely in Dutch, but if necessary, I also provide support in English, Spanish, or German. This allows non-native speakers to better understand grammar and language structures and make faster progress.

The lessons are practical, personal, and fully tailored to the goals of the student or learner. I use many examples, exercises, and active assignments so that the language becomes immediately applicable.

As a Dutch person living and working in Colombia, I have extensive experience with online education, multilingualism, and international students. My goal is not only better results, but above all more self-confidence and enjoyment of the Dutch language.

I have been an NT2 teacher at Linguarama since 2022, and I am TEFL/TESOL certified (160 hours). My background is in Cultural Anthropology and Development Sociology (Leiden University), which helps me to thoroughly understand the language culture and learning challenges of non-native speakers.

About Me

I am an experienced teacher who can teach three languages: Dutch, Spanish, and English. Thanks to my international background and my experience living in Colombia, I have a good understanding of the challenges language students face and can clearly explain grammar, vocabulary, and communication from various perspectives.
I teach both Dutch and Spanish to students of various levels, tailoring the lessons to the student's needs and learning goals. My approach is practical, interactive, and focused on building confidence in speaking, listening, reading, and writing.
In addition to my language skills, I have extensive experience with online teaching and developing structured lessons with plenty of exercises and practical examples. This enables students to make progress in an effective and motivating way.

Languages:

Dutch (mother tongue)
Spanish (advanced level)
English (advanced level)

My goal is not only to teach students the language, but also to give them the confidence to actively use it in their studies, work, and daily life.

Education

I have an academic background in anthropology and education. I obtained a Bachelor's degree in Cultural Anthropology and Development Sociology from Leiden University and subsequently pursued a Master's in the same field. Additionally, I completed the History Teacher Training program at the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences and obtained a TEFL certificate for teaching English as a foreign language.

Spanish – speaking, grammar and building self-confidence

21 £ /h

Do you want to learn to speak Spanish better, gain more self-confidence, or achieve better results at school? In my lessons, we work step by step on speaking, listening, grammar, vocabulary, and writing skills.
Because I live in Colombia and speak Spanish every day, I can not only teach you the language but also show you how Spanish is really used in everyday life.

The lessons are practical and interactive. We work with conversations, exercises, role-playing, and situations from daily life so that you can apply the language immediately. Of course, we can also work on school assignments, exams, pronunciation, or specific topics you struggle with.

Thanks to my experience in language teaching and my knowledge of both Dutch and Spanish, I can explain grammar clearly and make difficult topics understandable.

My goal is for you not only to learn Spanish better, but also to use the language with more pleasure and confidence.

I am a qualified and experienced mathematics tutor. Graduated from the Free University of Brussels in 2011, I started my career by teaching remedial courses in different schools in Brussels. I then specialized in individual academic support by following educational training at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. I have been giving private mathematics lessons daily for over ten years.

The students who follow my private lessons benefit from personalized support. The first session is devoted to an in-depth assessment of the student's mathematical knowledge. The objective is to detect its weak points and understand their origin in order to adapt my courses to its needs. I develop a tailor-made remediation program for each of my students aimed at filling each of their gaps. Over the course of the sessions, the student builds a solid foundation for learning and regains self-confidence. At the same time, I help him acquire a work methodology that allows him to gradually become autonomous in his studies.

I have a thorough knowledge of the mathematics curriculum for middle and high school (from 6th to 12th grade). I am also qualified to support students in preparing for international exams such as the SAT, the OMPT, and the International Baccalaureate (IB) in all its variations: Analysis and Approaches (AA SL/HL) and Applications and Interpretation (AI SL/HL).

Throughout my years of training, I studied and developed numerous techniques that facilitate learning mathematics. The strength of my teaching approach lies in my ability to explain, in simple terms, anything a student finds complicated. I am passionate about this profession because it offers me the opportunity to guide struggling students toward success. It is a true pleasure to see them progress and rediscover their connection with the fascinating world of mathematics.

I offer private tutoring in Paris (at the student's home) or remotely (online). My online lessons take place on an interactive whiteboard. This whiteboard is specifically designed to facilitate student/teacher interaction online. Thanks to this teaching tool, my online lessons are just as effective as in-person lessons. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to participate.

Prepare in an efficient, intensive way for the ITNA (Interuniversity Language Test Dutch), based on tailor-made exercises.
We practice together on language in use, grammar and vocabulary, gap texts, structuring exercises, dictation, presentations and argumentation.

Would you like to learn Dutch at a different level (A1 - C1) or are you a native speaker with a specific question, be sure to check out my other lesson "Dutch for non-native speakers and native speakers".

I am a high school teacher. I speak several languages. Arabic is my native language. I have worked with all levels. And I had training in teaching 👩‍🎓. I helped several foreigners master standard Arabic and the Tunisian dialect 🏆.

I follow an official and recognized program to prepare lessons for each learner.
I use conversations, text images, games, videos, stories to facilitate learning.

I am patient, sociable, and I listen to my learners.
In short, I help you to be able to speak, read, and write in Standard Arabic or Tunisian Arabic. 💐

Je propose un accompagnement personnalisé en mathématiques, sciences et travail scolaire pour les élèves de 7 à 17 ans. Les cours sont adaptés à l’âge de chaque élève, à son niveau scolaire, à son programme, à son rythme d’apprentissage et à ses besoins individuels.

Cet accompagnement peut servir de soutien scolaire régulier, d’aide aux devoirs, de renforcement des notions fondamentales, d’aide pour surmonter des difficultés spécifiques, de préparation aux contrôles et examens, ou simplement permettre à l’élève de gagner en confiance et en autonomie dans son travail.

Selon l’âge et le niveau scolaire de l’élève, les cours peuvent inclure :

¤ Mathématiques — calcul, fractions, pourcentages, géométrie, algèbre, équations, fonctions, trigonométrie, probabilités, statistiques et résolution de problèmes

¤ Sciences — sciences générales, matière et énergie, notions de base en physique et chimie, biologie, corps humain, environnement, ainsi que d’autres thèmes selon le programme scolaire de l’élève

¤ Aide aux devoirs et soutien scolaire — compréhension des cours, réalisation des exercices, révision des notions difficiles, préparation aux contrôles et développement de méthodes de travail efficaces

Mon approche pédagogique évolue avec l’âge de l’élève. Pour les plus jeunes, je cherche à rendre les mathématiques et les sciences intuitives et intéressantes grâce à des explications claires, des exemples concrets et une approche qui stimule la curiosité. À mesure que l’élève progresse, j’introduis progressivement un raisonnement plus structuré, des méthodes de résolution de problèmes et davantage d’autonomie.

L’objectif n’est pas simplement de terminer les devoirs ou de mémoriser des informations, mais d’aider l’élève à comprendre ce qu’il apprend, à développer son raisonnement, à gagner en confiance et à devenir progressivement plus autonome.

Je suis titulaire d’un doctorat en physique et possède une solide formation académique en mathématiques, physique et sciences expérimentales. J’adapte chaque cours au programme scolaire réel de l’élève plutôt que de suivre un programme fixe.

Les cours peuvent être dispensés en français ou en anglais, avec des explications en arabe lorsque cela peut faciliter la compréhension.

Hi! If physics is giving you a hard time and you are preparing for your GCSE or IGCSE exams under AQA, Edexcel, or OCR boards, I am here to help you take things from scratch and build complete confidence.
Here is how we go through the entire learning journey together:

Starting from the Basics: When we begin a new topic—whether it is forces, electricity, waves, or energy—we don't just jump into memorizing definitions. We start right from the very basics, breaking down what the concept actually means using simple, real-world logic.

Interactive Visual Learning: During our online session, we work on a shared digital whiteboard. I draw clean diagrams, circuit layouts, and ray optics step by step right in front of you so you can clearly visualize what is happening instead of just imagining it from a book.

Tackling Numericals: Physics formulas and calculations scare many students. We practice numerical problems slowly, learning how to rearrange formulas, substitute values correctly, and check units step by step until solving them becomes second nature.

Exam & Past Paper Practice: Once we finish a chapter, we immediately move to exam-style questions and past papers. We review how examiners mark answers, how to phraseexplanations properly, and how to manage time so you feel fully prepared and calm on your actual exam day.

Drop me a message anytime, and let's talk about which topics you want us to start working on together!

Mathematics is not a matter of "gift": it's a set of methods that must be learned. As a high school mathematics teacher, I support students of all levels, from elementary to the final year of high school, so that they truly understand the concepts instead of simply memorizing formulas.

Having seen the difficulties that arise in class, I know exactly where students get stuck and how to remedy it: gaps accumulated from one year to the next, lack of confidence, stress before tests, difficulty in writing a proof.

Depending on the student's level, we work on:
Primary school: numeration, the four operations, multiplication tables, fractions, simple word problems, basic geometry
Middle school: algebraic calculation, equations, proportionality, Pythagorean and Thales' theorems, functions, statistics
High school: functions, derivatives, sequences, probabilities, geometry in space, trigonometry, integrals (depending on the specialization)

My method:
A brief initial assessment to identify strengths and weaknesses
Clear explanations, with concrete examples adapted to the student's age.
Progressive exercises to gain independence
Regular monitoring and methodological advice (organization, writing, time management during exams)
Targeted preparation for tests, the brevet and the baccalaureate
