👋 I’m Faustína Valéria, linguist, polyglot (9 languages), and your guide to real Dutch. With 10 years of teaching experience, I help you learn the Dutch people actually speak.
🇳🇱 Based in the Netherlands, I teach with structure, clarity, and focus. Whether you’re preparing for your inburgeringsexamens or want to live your best life in a Dutch-speaking country, my lessons keep you engaged and get you results. You’ll get honest feedback, sharp explanations, and space to ask everything you need.
💡If you’re tired of memorizing rules that don’t stick, let’s make Dutch *make sense*. Book a trial, and I’ll show you how consistency + smart coaching = real progress.Me as a Teacher
What makes my lessons work isn’t some magic method, it’s real collaboration. I listen, observe, and then tailor the approach so it actually fits you: your goals, habits, time, and attention span.
I don’t believe in generic “fun” or “interactive” lessons, I believe in lessons that make sense, keep you engaged, and get you results. You’ll get honest feedback, clear explanations, and space to ask every question you have.
My students know I expect consistency, but they also know I’ve got their back. Progress in a language isn’t luck, it’s structure, good communication, and a teacher who knows when to push and when to ease off. That’s what I do. My lessons & teaching style
📚 I use real materials (articles, videos, conversations) because that’s how you truly learn. I’ll push you to use Dutch actively and creatively, while giving clear linguistic support when needed.
🎯 In our first lesson, we set your goals and plan your path. You’ll get your own Google Classroom with all your materials, assignments and feedback.My teaching material

Had great fun with Faustina during our lessons. I’m impressed by how deeply she knows the language and how clearly she can explain the grammar rules. 👍 My main problem is speaking, boy did we have a lot of that during our lessons. I sang songs, watched YouTube videos, and we discussed that at our lessons. And I also got extra pdfs for further practice. Over the two months of lessons I can say I’m not afraid to speak Dutch anymore. Thanks Faustina 🫶

Teacher Faustína is great, she is well-prepared with materials and she is easy to talk to, she creates a safe atmosphere and you feel at ease to try to speak in Dutch. I appreciated that she presented her way of working, that she asked me about my goals to understand better how she can help me. I strongly recommend her!
