I give personal Dutch as a second language (NT2) lessons for adults, one-on-one or in a small group — at whatever pace suits your level and goals.
from words to conversation
I feel ready to speak Dutch
Learning Dutch can be challenging. It can also be clear, practical and enjoyable.
Over the past seven years I have worked at several large organisations, supporting expats and their families as they moved to the Netherlands and found their feet in a new country.
During that time, I learned a lot — about relocation, the everyday questions people have when they’ve just moved here, and about Dutch culture and habits.
Together we work on Dutch you feel able to use in conversations, at work and in everyday life.
I gave workshops and presentations to bring people into contact with each other and help them find their way in the Netherlands.
Volunteering at a language café is where I discovered how much I enjoy helping people learn Dutch.
I am currently training as an NT2 teacher and use my knowledge and experience to help others feel more confident in Dutch.
My lessons are personal, practical and tailored to each learner’s needs and goals. Learning should be clear and useful, but also enjoyable and motivating.
Whether you’re just starting out with Dutch (A0/A1), working towards a higher level, or simply want to feel more confident in conversations — I’ll think along with you about what fits.
Dutch as a second language, for adults who want to learn or build on what they already know — with a focus on the language you actually need, at work, in your studies, or simply in everyday life.
Personal attention, at a pace that fits you. Together we decide where to focus — whether that’s for work, your studies, or everyday conversations.
For anyone who mainly wants to speak more: building your vocabulary and having conversations more easily.
Online, in person or a mix of both — whatever works best for you. I’m based in Amsterdam, but also teach online across the Netherlands.
Flexible learning, wherever you live.
Personal lessons in Amsterdam or on location.
A practical mix of online flexibility and direct guidance.
My experience with expats, relocation and Dutch culture means I understand what international employees need to find their way.
I help them — and their families — learn Dutch and take those first steps in a new country.
