Language Courses
I help expatriats making Dutch their own, so they can make the most of their experience in the Netherlands
“ You don’t need to speak Dutch to live and work in The Netherlands ”
But:
You don’t want to depend on a partner for business or social life
Your children go to a Dutch school and you want to be able to communicate in Dutch and build connections with teachers and other parents for their and your best interest.
You want to optimize your career opportunities
You want to make deeper connections and really feel at home in The Netherlands
You are tired of being that person who still can’t have a simple conversation in Dutch with the neighbors after 6 years
You don’t want to depend on others to understand the healthcare/ housing/ social security systems and handle your administration.
You want to learn about Dutch culture and literature, be part of a community and get lot’s of tips for podcasts and reading
How I can help you:
My method is based on themed conversation lessons you can directly apply in your daily life. I personalize all lessons for your goals and interests. My one hour online lessons will fit in your schedule, even as a busy working mom.
relevant grammar exercises and feedback on your writing after each lesson
As a native Dutchy currently living an expat experience myself in Paris, I would love to help you on your journey getting settled in The Netherlands.

About
My name is Annemijn. I am originally from The Hague, but currently live in Paris. I've combined my teaching experience with my passion for writing to offer tailor-made conversational and writing classes.
My teacher training at the University of Applied Sciences in Amsterdam, my experience teaching expats in The Hague, as well as my own experiences living abroad and immersing myself in new languages, have taught me a lot about effective language learning strategies—and what's simply a waste of time.
What works for me doesn't necessarily work for you. That's why we'll begin by discussing your specific goals for learning Dutch, your previous language learning experiences, and assessing your optimal learning style.
This approach allows me to create a personalized plan featuring conversational and writing classes that are directly applicable to your new daily life in the Netherlands.

Super goede en handige cursus! Tijdens de cursus heb ik veel geleerd van Annemijn, dankzij de interessante en diepgaande discussies en oefeningen die we hebben gedaan.

“Annemijn, you are a great teacher. Studying with you has always been very fun and educational. Your guidance has been very effective in my language development. When I talk to you I find myself very relaxed and able to talk.”

Je recommande grandement! Je suis des leçons de néerlandais avec Annemijn depuis quelques mois, très bonne prof, qui me fait avancer à mon tempo. De cours toujours bien préparés et en lien avec des thématiques de ma vie, de ce que j'attends pour continuer à progresser ici aux Pays-Bas. Différents outils utilisés, variés et ludiques!
Ik ben super blij met mijn nederlands lessen met Annemijn! Bedankt!

“Ik was op zoek naar een taalcoach en kwam in contact met Annemijn. We kwamen één keer per week bij elkaar. Annemijn is een goed, geduldig en behulpzaam persoon. Ze beantwoorde mijn vragen en hielp me de grammatica te begrijpen. Hartelijk dank, Annemijn. ”

Loved my classes with Annemijn ! She prepared all of my classes with care on the topics that I like. This method gave me some motivation to lean more into Dutch. I also appreciated Annemijn's very good communication and organisation ! Patiente with really good exercise I recommend this professor.
