About Me
italki teacher since Feb 17, 2022Interest topicSports & FitnessMusicTravel
Hi, my name is Mingus Niesten, a 26-year-old Dutch guy. I would love to become a translator in the future, with good knowledge of French, English and of course Dutch, and basic knowledge of Spanish. I'm currently doing my masters, Professional Translation in Utrecht. I've always had a passion for languages, because it makes it possible to communicate even when you're very far from home. Speaking another language well can make you more of a world citizen. It also give you a possibility to get to know other cultures. Furthermore, I am passionate about football, fitness and music!Me as a Teacher
I see myself as a calm and collected person, who is always looking for ways to improve in something. This is also useful in lessons, as my full focus will be on ways I can help you speak and understand a specific language better. I also think it's important to feel like the 'classroom' is a safe space, where it's okay to make mistakes.My lessons & teaching style
In my opinion, it's important to try to speak a language as much as possible, so that creating sentences becomes routine. When you know the basics of creating sentences, you're already well on your way to mastering a language. Speaking about multiple topics is also crucial, this way your vocabulary extends and it won't matter as much what the subject of a future conversation will be, because you will have all kinds of words in your head :)5.0

Mingus had encouraged me to focus more on the verbs and to work on the conjugate issue. I am going to do so.

Mingus gave me examples to follow and homework to do. He reminded me of a system to follow when I am going to conjugate Dutch verbs.

Mingus had revision with me and was patient. Mr Low did more practice on verbs with Mingus. I look forward to attending more Dutch classes with Mingus.
