Hello there! / Hallo allemaal!
I’m Raymond, born and raised in Amsterdam, and I’m here to help you achieve your language goals, whether you’re preparing for an exam or just want to sound more natural.
Having worked as a Training Coordinator for a security company in Amsterdam, and having lived in Latin America for several years, I’ve developed a strong foundation in teaching and gathered lots of cool stories to share.
Outside of teaching, I love traveling, doing CrossFit and calisthenics, cooking, and riding motorcycles.Ik als leerkracht

Raymond quickly adapted to my needs, playing a vital role in enhancing my Dutch speaking skills. His friendly encouragement made conversations feel natural, akin to chatting with a friend. I genuinely looked forward to my weekly lessons with him. His positive approach made speaking Dutch less challenging, reducing grammatical errors, broadening my active vocabulary, and enhancing my readiness for immersion in Dutch society.
Over six months of weekly sessions, I progressed from A2.2/B1.1 to B1.2/B2.1 proficiency. While I had a decent grasp of vocabulary and grammar, I often struggled to put them into practice during speech. Raymond's classes significantly helped make my speech feel more natural and accurate. I now feel much closer to achieving professional fluency in the near future.

I am someone who traditionally struggles to learn language, but Raymond is an unparalleled teacher. I feel for the first time that I am making substantial progress towards achieving my dream of being bilingual after many failed attempts in school. Raymond is attentive and knowledgable, he exhibits a fundamental understanding of many languages which allows him to tailer the course in a way that works best for you. I would highly recommend Raymond to anyone looking to learn a language.

Ray is the best teacher I've ever had. His classes are well-structured, and he knows how difficult it might be to learn a new language from scratch. I started to feel progress almost immediately! Moreover, Raymond is not only an experienced tutor but also an interesting person: we can discuss everything - from politics and economics to films and tattoos.
