Dutch second language - Utrecht - Private lessons

Dutch second language

From 37.51 £ /h

My language lessons are always tailored to the student. I provide interaction, the pupil will be encouraged from the start to experiment with the Dutch language, always within the pupil's own perception of the world, so that what is learned is placed in a personal context and automatically supplemented with elements that are specific to the pupil.
I have a number of fine methodologies at my disposal, but I also work with ease with material that the pupil has brought from school or from home, or else will select material to measure.
I have been teaching Dutch as a second language for 20 years and have a master's degree in education with a specialization in learning disabilities.

I am a native American English Speaker with over 10 years of teaching experience. I have worked with students of all ages and populations and I pride myself in being a patient and warm teacher. I create a positive class atmosphere that maintains an engaging learning environment.

There is never a dull moment in my classes! My specific classes and lesson plans are catered to specific age groups from Pre-K to adults. They consist of engaging language activities, and engaging language subjects. I seriously take into account the needs and skill level of each student in preparing my lesson plans and material.

I help children and teenagers with homework and French classes.

Having a master's degree in business management and extensive experience in the recruitment industry, internationally, I also help young graduates and adults to prepare job interviews.

I help you prepare your homework and tests but also to better understand the subject with which you are having difficulty (English, French, mathematics).
I adapt my method to the personality of each student, which allows for a better understanding of the subject.

Conversational lessons on topics of your choice in Dutch, English or French. Hi I’m Onya, I’m half Dutch, half Irish and spent most of my childhood in France. I am a native speaker in Dutch, English and French.
I look forward to hearing from you

The courses are adapted to the needs of the student.
The goal is to help as much as possible to find or regain confidence in speaking, but also in the pleasure of learning and to discover ways to learn yourself.
For 15 years I have been giving lessons to adults and children, in schools and also privately. All levels are welcome.

Dutch truly is the easiest language in the world, and I can help anyone to get better and happier speaking it. I have a very personalized approach, and am a seasoned teacher with 20 years of experience. I will make you love the Dutch language, through conversations, songs, video's and anything you have a preference for. Try a class once, and you'll come back for more...

Experienced teacher from first to sixth grade. Homework help, remediation, reading practice, CEB preparation
My experience allows me to target each person's needs, all in a relaxed atmosphere to regain confidence and progress quickly.
I know the different methods of learning to read.

Passionate and educational medical student, I offer private lessons in languages (English, Dutch, French), science and mathematics.

-PERSONALIZED APPROACH to fill gaps and strengthen skills

-AUTONOMY-CENTRED METHOD to give the student not only the knowledge he needs, but also the tools and methods so that he becomes more autonomous in his learning

-EXPERIENCE, PATIENCE AND PEDAGOGY to make learning accessible and motivating

This class offers personalized instruction in philosophical and/or sociological theory, suited both for students seeking academic support and for individuals with a general interest in a philosophical topic.
Sessions are designed according to the student’s goals, whether it’s clarifying course material, preparing written assignments, or exploring theoretical texts independently.

I am currently completing a Master of Arts in Philosophy. My areas of specialization include ancient philosophy, early modern philosophy, and phenomenology. I also hold a background in sociology, which allows me to offer interdisciplinary approaches to social theory and critical thought.

Sessions can be focused on specific authors or movements (e.g. Plato, Spinoza, feminist theory), or organized thematically around concepts such as love, beauty, perception, or subjectivity. The goal is to foster rigorous but accessible understanding, with attention to both conceptual clarity and historical context.

Language level: beginner to advanced
Language: FR / ENG / NL
Learn Dutch in a human way. We build vocabulary and grammar, as well as confidence and expressiveness.
Conversations, music, stories: anything can be an entry point into the language. Preparation for exams or job applications is also possible.

With experience as a NT2 teacher at EPFC + creative background.

🎓 Tailor-made private lessons
Need help with your homework, language classes, or humanities subjects?
A graduate in sociology and currently pursuing a master's degree in history, I support students with clear, personalized and motivating teaching methods.

📘 Areas offered:

- Homework help: regular monitoring to help you understand, assimilate and succeed in your schoolwork.

- French & English: learning, refresher, oral and written practice.

- Human and social sciences: history, geography and sociology, with a lively and structured approach.

I have worked as a homework helper in Swiss private schools as well as in various social institutions, where I accompanied and helped students of different ages and profiles, developing teaching methods adapted to each one.

Feel free to contact me for more information.

Throughout my school career, I have acquired a rigorous working method and a real ability to adapt to different levels and subjects. I myself have benefited from good academic support, and today I would like to pass on these keys to success to students who need them.

What I propose

Homework help/Academic support for primary, middle/high school and higher education students (in my field of study).

Academic support in various subjects: French, mathematics, history-geography, languages (French, English, Spanish), as needed.

Organization and work methodology: learn to plan, summarize effectively, and revise methodically.

Regarding the course structure, the goal is to adapt to the student and their needs. It is entirely possible to:

-help the student with his homework by providing educational support
- review lessons for a test/exam
- explore a concept seen in class in more depth
- work on a working/learning methodology

Of course, this can also be defined by the time of the school year (holidays, approaching exams, etc.)

I offer tailored courses, in person or remotely, according to the needs of each student. For academic support, I adapt to the program followed by the child or adolescent, by deepening the concepts already covered, by re-explaining difficult points or by dissecting problematic themes.

For adults, I mainly teach the basics in Dutch, but I can adapt my lessons to different objectives. For example: learning the vocabulary for a new position, preparing for an exam (Selor, language certification), refreshing your knowledge before an interview, or improving your ability to communicate effectively in a professional or personal context. My approach is always flexible, student-centered, and aims to strengthen both understanding and self-confidence.
