Hallo! I’m Maronel, your friendly guide to mastering Afrikaans with confidence. Growing up in a close-knit farming community, I fell in love with the rhythm and richness of Afrikaans—a language I now teach with cultural insight and patience. My background in Psychology and Linguistics helps me tailor lessons to how *you* learn best, whether you’re starting with "Hoe gaan dit?" or diving into literature. Fully bilingual (English/Afrikaans), I bridge language gaps while keeping lessons lively and practical. Let’s make Afrikaans feel like home!Me as a Teacher
I strive to create a warm, supportive, and engaging learning atmosphere. I believe in adapting my teaching to each student's individual learning style, encouraging curiosity and building confidence. My goal is to make learning enjoyable and effective.My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are interactive and practical, focusing on real-world applications. We'll use a variety of tools, including discussions, interactive exercises, and relatable examples, to make learning both fun and relevant. I focus on developing strong, practical skills that students can use immediately.My teaching material

I really enjoyed our Afrikaans lesson. Maronel prepared a few roleplaying exercises and provided feedback, and then we did a reading comprehension exercise. Maronel was friendly, professional, and very helpful throughout the lesson. I'm feeling more confident about my ability to hold conversations in Afrikaans and look forward to more lessons!

Maronel is the best! Each lesson is tailored toward my progress. She is patient and fun. The lessons are a personalized mix of grammar and sentence structure, but also fun things like reading or role-playing so it never gets boring or overwhelming. Highly recommend!

Maronel was friendly, professional, and very helpful. We discussed my language goals, did some general conversation practice, and outlined a plan for future lessons. Would definitely recommend!
