Until the start of the COVID 19 crisis, I was teaching both online and in a language institute. But since the start of the crisis, I have been teaching online full time.  I´ve always loved meeting people and talking to people.   So, working as a teacher was a logical step.   By now, I have taught more than 2000 online classes and received training in NT2 teaching from the University of Leuven. My students tell me they like my classes because I am patient, have a sense of humor and because I make them feel comfortable in speaking the language that we are learning.

With beginners, I like to use a structured approach that focuses on all aspects of the language.   With advanced students, it depends on their goals.  Sometimes I use a structured approach, but if they are going for a job interview, want to be able to communicate better with family/school/…, or have other specific goals, my classes will be very different.   I will also adjust the classes to the learning style of every student.

I enjoy myself when I teach and my students do too.  If you have fun while you learn, you´ll learn faster and stay motivated.  I also get a lot of satisfaction out of helping my students reach their goals.  I've helped people get a better job, have more fun in Belgium and the Netherlands, pass exams such as CNaVT, SELOR and inburgeringsexamen. If you need some help, I´ll be happy to assist.
