I am a native Dutch speaker from Belgium, a multilingual country. At university I learned Turkish and I understand the problems you encounter when learning a new language. I look forward to helping you improve your Dutch and English.
Me as a Teacher
I am constantly learning about languages and cultures myself and therefore I am conscious that as a teacher I need to be as accessible and supportive for students as possible. After all it takes a lot of courage to express yourself in a new language.
My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are aimed at adults and students aged 15 and above and are characterised by an informal style, allowing the student to speak in the target language as much as possible. I put students at ease, encourage them and I try to listen as patiently as possible. I pay attention to the pronunciation, grammar, sentence structure and vocabulary used by the student and I correct immediately where necessary. In a separate document, I keep track of the topic and vocabulary and do not miss the opportunity to explain a grammatical problem directly. I use textbooks, magazines, separate documents, stories, illustrations, newspaper articles and video files to teach everyday Dutch.

Teacher’s pick
I chose Robrecht because he spoke clearly and had good sound quality in his sample video. Now I look forward to the lessons because I enjoyed our conversation.

Robrecht helped me prepare for my speaking test the next day on very short notice (so sorry and many thanks for making yourself available!). I passed my test and was accepted to the next level!

Robrecht is a truly excellent teacher. He understands what his students want and plans their studies based on that. I highly recommend him.

I am very thankful to my Dutch teacher for this highly educational class. I’ve learned a great deal about Dutch, and Germanic linguistics as a whole, among other interrelated topics.
