About Me
italki teacher since Aug 23, 2024InterestsFilms & TV SeriesPets & AnimalsSports & FitnessFashion & BeautyFood
I am 25 years old, I grew up in Groesbeek, a village next to the border of Germany. I recently started living abroad for an indefinite period because my boyfriend works on a sailing boat. At home I have a dog, Skay, which my parents now take care of and for which I would like to travel back to the Netherlands. I like sports and socializing with people.Me as a Teacher
As a teacher i am patient and flexible. An agreement is an agreement, so there may be expectations on both sides. I am serious about my work, but a joke can always be had. I give writing assignments, reading and listening assignments and we will talk as much as possible in Dutch because that is how you learn the language the best in my opinion. If you need me outside of classtime, i am always available thru message on ITalki for any question you might have.My lessons & teaching style
In my lessons, I focus on creating a personalized and supportive learning environment. Whether you're a beginner or looking to refine your skills, I adapt my teaching to meet your specific goals, such as improving conversational fluency, grammar, or writing skills. Lessons are interactive and practical, with real-life scenarios to boost confidence in speaking.
I believe in a balance of structure and flexibility. My approach is student-centered, using engaging exercises, clear explanations, and regular feedback to make learning effective and enjoyable.My teaching material

Mariska's personality is very great. Starting with the grammar is always important for most basic learners. Mariska shows very dynamic in her teaching. I would like to recommend for anyone who are willing to learn Dutch.

This was my third lesson and each one so far has been so encouraging! Mariska is an excellent teacher who helps get you out of your comfort zone and reach your full potential! Dutch is a challenging language to learn, but she makes the process both attainable and enjoyable :)
