Certified NT2 Dutch Teacher

With over 35 years of experience in the commercial world, I have built and managed two successful businesses—one in advertising and the other in the textile industry. However, when I turned 50, I felt it was time for a new challenge. My passion for language and teaching led me to pursue a degree in NT2 (Dutch as a Second Language) at VU University, where I became a certified Dutch teacher. Today, I have the pleasure of teaching expats, refugees, and students preparing for their "Inburgering" exams. I love helping people integrate into Dutch society by mastering the language, and I’m committed to making learning both effective and enjoyable. In addition to Dutch, I am fluent in English and can also communicate in French and Spanish. I pride myself on being an excellent listener and bringing a fun, engaging energy to every lesson.
