Shiva Hermsen

I’m really enjoying learning Dutch with Shiva! She’s patient, friendly, and makes every lesson fun and engaging. She always prepares a lot of interesting topics to talk about, which really helps me practice speaking naturally. She also pays attention to my mistakes and helps me improve step by step. Thanks to her, I feel much more confident speaking Dutch. I highly recommend her as a teacher!

Na een paar lessen met Shiva voel ik me al zelfverzekerder als ik Nederlands spreek. De lessen zijn erg leuk en goed georganiseerd. Ze heeft veel onderwerpen om over te discussiëren, en ze geeft goede feedback na de les. Ik zou haar lessen zeker aanraden!

Shiva always sends related material beforehand, so our lessons jump straight into meaningful conversation, and her timely corrections keep improving my Dutch accuracy and confidence.

Shiva is a very engaging, funny and motivating teacher - I love the fact that I learn so many words in a very natural, organic way. She has a great list of topics, vocab and questions to go through at the lessons and that helps me so much to expand my vocabulary without necessarily sitting down for one hour and learning so many new words at once. We've had only a couple of lessons so far and I already notice a big shift in my confidence, vocabulary and fluency!

Interesting lessons. The teacher prepares her own materials

Really enjoyed my first Dutch lesson with Shiva! It was really good speaking practice, and she explains things clearly. Felt comfortable right away.
