PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY BEFORE BOOKING! :)
Hey! My name is Fleuriëtte but you can call me Sekar. Dutch is my native language but over the years I've managed to make English a good second best. I'm an avid language learner, always have been! To me, language is the key to a deeper understanding of different cultures around the world.
I'm an Art History undergraduate but my interests range from travelling and scubadiving to random philosophical debates, food and celebrity gossip.
I've lived in the Netherlands and Australia and am currently living in Indonesia.

Me as a Teacher
I have very broad interests so we can really talk about anything! I'm sure that in our lessons you'll be able to teach me a thing or two as well.
As a tutor my role is mostly to guide you. I'll hand you the pieces to solve the puzzle but ultimately you'll be the one solving it. And I'll be there along the way to steer you in the right direction when needed and answer all your questions.
Since I'm Dutch, I have an upfront personality. This helps me to be a good accountability partner for my students.
My lessons & teaching style
My classes are mostly conversational but I am able to help you with most questions about Dutch or English grammar. I do give the occasional homework to help you practice things that you're still struggling with. Resources I often use are articles, multimedia, websites and podcasts. Practice your job/immigration/grant etc. interviews, presentations or future conversations with me. My students will tell you I am very good at being your fake future boss!
REFUND POLICY: I don't give refunds on classes canceled within 8 hours of the lesson time unless there's been a real emergency. Other students were not able to book your slot and it reimburses me for time invested and plans made. Thank you!

Thanks to Sekar, my Dutch level has improved a lot, feel comfortable to talk Dutch to other people. Also all lessons are super enjoyable and if I wake up not in a good mood it always improves after the lesson.

Sekar has been teaching me dutch by using the Delftse Methode. I originally started this with a group lesson from another company and completed A0-A1 with the group. I was having conversational classes on the side with Sekar and felt very comfortable with her. I then asked if she could take me the rest of the way to A2 using the Delftse Methode, she accepted and i have been blown away with how quickly she adapted to using this method. From day 1 she was better than the teachers I had who have been using this method for years. If you want to learn Dutch fast and other traditional methods are not working for you then i urge you to give this a try with Sekar. You will not regret it! The price is cheaper than anywhere else and it is a private lesson! You will get 10 times the amount of speaking time doing it privately than you would in a class of 10 students. Thank you so much Sekar!

More than thirty lessons later, and I still can't get enough of talking with Sekar! She's really an amazing person, and I never thought learning a foreign language can be so natural and fun. Can't recommend her enough.

Sekar is very clear in her communication of expectations and goals. She's an excellent conversationalist too, so talking to her was a pleasure!
