Over mij

I was born in the Netherlands, but also grew up in Belgium and America. When I was eighteen years old, I moved to China to study martial arts and eventually became a master of Chinese swordsmanship eleven years later. I love adventure and travelled over 80000km, to the most remote areas of South China, on motorbikes and documented the trips through photography, also trekking through jungles and caves. I enjoy watching films - especially those of the science fiction, action and horror genres. I majored in science at an American university and relish discussing scientific topics at length. Languages are another passion of mine and I am currently learning Spanish to enjoy my new life in Spain!
I have been teaching for well over a decade now. I was a language instructor in China for ten of the eleven years that I lived there (and an adventure tour leader for one!) and have also been teaching online for over three years now. My students have ranged from kindergarteners all the way up to adult professionals. I lived and worked in Guilin, Chongqing and Jiamusi and have developed a deep understanding of the people and culture of the country, although I enjoy learning about all cultures. After leaving China, I worked in law enforcement for a year and went back to school to pursue a degree in environmental science, but came back to teaching because I missed it!
I am a fun-loving, but serious teacher that pays a lot of attention to detail. I measure my success as a teacher by the succe...Mijn lesmateriaal

这两个月跟马腾老师学习荷兰语，是我语言学习过程中非常幸运的经历！老师不仅专业，而且特别认真负责：语法讲得很透彻，发音和细节纠正非常到位，还会根据我的水平调整课程内容和节奏，让我每次上完课都能明显感觉到自己在进步。课后作业和练习设计得很有针对性，老师的反馈也非常细心、耐心，帮助我快速补齐短板、建立信心。马腾老师是一位既有方法、又有耐心、而且很会鼓励学生的优秀老师。我真心推荐给所有想在短期内提升荷兰语听说读写的人！

Maarten is the best Dutch teacher I've found so far. He is well prepared, always shows up on time, and is enthusiastic about sharing his expertise. Mijn uitspraak is zeker vooruit gegaan na de lessen van Maarten! :)
