My name is Rocksaina Sintjacoba. I was born on the island of Curacao but now I live in the Netherlands. In my free time I enjoy spending time in nature by taking long walks, listening to music, making music (I play drums), visiting museums, doing arts and crafts and spending time with the people that are important to me.
Mi nombre es Rocksaina Sintjacoba. Nací en la isla de Curazao pero ahora vivo en los Países Bajos. En mi tiempo libre disfruto pasar tiempo en la naturaleza dando largos paseos, escuchando música, haciendo música (toco la batería), visitando museos, haciendo manualidades y pasando tiempo con las personas que son importantes para mí.

Me as a Teacher
I am a patient teacher that has the ability to explain complex subjects in a simple and accessible way. At first I like to get to know my students. This makes it easier for me to put together a custom curriculum to fit your personal needs.

My lessons & teaching style
I like to focus on the basic level of my students and start from there. I use organic ways to be immersed in the language we are trying to learn. This makes it easier to start recognizing patterns that you wouldn't otherwise be able to detect. Of course I do have materials that support this way of teaching.
Me gusta centrarme en el nivel básico de mis alumnos y empezar desde ahí. Uso formas orgánicas de estar inmerso en el idioma que estamos tratando de aprender. Esto hace que sea más fácil comenzar a reconocer patrones que de otro modo no podrías detectar. Por supuesto que tengo materiales que apoyan esta forma de enseñar.

Rocksaina is always very kind and punctual. She is very patient when I'm learning Dutch and asks me how I want to be corrected. She customizes every lesson to my needs. If I want to practice an interview, she helps me create a scenario where I can speak on that subject. The most important thing I've noticed is that she lets me speak Dutch, even when I make mistakes, and then she corrects me gently and allows me to continue speaking.

I'm so happy that I booked a lesson with Rocksaina. She was awesome, and not just because we discovered a hobby we have in common. I highly recommend her as a teacher. I'll be back for more lessons with her.
