Hi! My name is Marit:)
I'm a curious adventurer — you’ll often find me on the road, moving from place to place and learning about new people, cultures, and ways of life!
I practice yoga and meditation daily and I love spending time in nature. Free and scuba diving, (kite)surfing, hiking, and camping are some of my favourite things to do.
I also believe in slowing down and not always rushing through life — and I bring that same mentality into my lessons.
Whether I’m traveling or teaching, I love learning through connection, laughter, and real-life experiences.
Let's have some fun!Me as a Teacher
I'm excited to share a part of my Dutch culture and language - especially because I’m usually the one learning about other people’s languages and cultures these days!
I teach English to local families while traveling, which has given me experience in teaching in the first place.
I like to keep the classes fun, playful and light. Something you look forward to, rather than something that feels like a must. Above all, It's a safe learning environment!
I prepare my classes according to your skills and knowledge and I document what we cover during the lessons. That way you only have to show up and enjoy the lesson :) My lessons & teaching style
Every lesson is designed around you - your interests, your pace, and your way of learning.
Whether you’re learning Dutch for a specific reason or simply because you’re curious, we’ll create lessons that feel relevant, natural, and enjoyable.
In our lessons you can expect a mix of:
- Conversation practice
- Vocabulary growth
- Roleplays & daily situations
- Picture, story or short movie comprehension
- Language games & cultural exchange
The goal is to help you feel confident and comfortable speaking Dutch in real life, while actually enjoying the process.Teaching experience

Marit is positief en kalm. Ze heeft me veel vragen gesteld om een goed plan voor lessen te maken. Het was een comfortabel en leuk gesprek. Bedankt!
