Fluent in Afrikaans and English, I specialize in lively, thought-provoking conversations! As a language learner myself (Russian, French), I deeply understand the challenges students face. My passion for travel, cultures, and global issues—like climate change and women’s empowerment—fuels engaging lessons. Let’s chat, debate, and grow together!Me as a Teacher
I am patient and friendly. I have a list of topics we can talk about - topics that are suitable for every language level.
Studente se ek is vriendelik en baie behulpsaam. Ek sal jou aanmoedig om Afrikaans te praat - die mooiste taal.

This was the second time I'd actually tried to speak to someone in Afrikaans (instead of speaking bad Dutch to Afrikaaners!). Corne was a patient listener and gave me plenty of freedom and time to form my thoughts while offering useful words I lacked. Baie dankie. Totsiens!

Vandag het ons 'n graad 4 se teks oor die volstruis se nek gelees en ons het ook oor my baie besig en stresvolle week 'n bietjie gepraat. Dankie, Corne. Sien jou binnekort :)
