Interest topicFoodScienceMusicTravelHistory
Eight years ago I finished my studies with a second bachelor in Business, with great honorees. Immediately after that I started travelling and I never really stopped. I have lived in Korea, Philippines, Australia, New-Zealand and travelled around in 20+ other countries. Along the way, I picked up fire dancing as a hobby, which is where I discovered a passion for teaching.
To pay for these travels, I worked as a Logistic Planner, Lab Assistant, Hotel Manager, Property Manager, Warehouse Supervisor, HR-consultant and Carpenter.
One year ago, I started helping immigrants with their English. Now, I am TEFL certified and ready to help you with your struggles in learning a new language.
Me as a Teacher

I start with 3 types of lessons to choose from, that we alter together to reach your goals
- Conversational ==> through interesting conversations, I help you build vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation. Perfect for both kids and beginner adults!
- Industry specific ==> If you have ambition to work in any of the fields that I have worked in, this is THE perfect class for you!
- Business ==> Having 2 bachelors degrees in Business, I can help you create more opportunities for your career with a new language

It's always nice to learn with Quinten, he's patient, enthusiastic and we can have conversations about a lot of topics. If there's smthg I can't say in Dutch, I just use English and then Quinten will help me say it in Dutch 👍🏻

Quinten’s lessons are great! He really takes the extra time to go over everything thoroughly and makes sure you understand the lesson. He’s very patient and encouraging when providing feedback. Highly recommended!

I appreciate how friendly Quinten was during our lesson and how he helped with my pronunciation. He was very clear about what he could/could not offer (for beginner Dutch). The audio/video quality was not clear so sometimes I had a hard time hearing him.
