Currently on a small break! Back in October for more lessons! :) 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. I'm excited to share a part of the Dutch culture and language! While traveling I've been teaching English to local families, 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 :) 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 See you soon! :))

Marit creates a good atmosphere for learning. We’ve been working on a topic for a few lessons and there’s time to go over new words and sayings. I always feel comfortable asking questions. Marit provides corrections after I’ve gotten a whole thought out. Next time we’re going to review words and sayings from the past several lessons, which I really appreciate.
