START LEARNING
Learn Dutch with Pineto Taaldiensten! Everyone is welcome. It doesn't matter if you already speak a bit Dutch or not at all. The lessons are 1 on 1 or in small groups. You can take a private lesson, but you can also take a lesson with your partner, friends or family. The lessons can be tailored to your wishes. At Pineto Taaldiensten you can take several lessons to ultimately speak and write Dutch easily. You can also take some lessons to improve your pronunciation. Or maybe you just want more explanation and help with difficult grammar. Everything is possible.
Together with me, Henk van 't Wout, we look at how you can learn Dutch in a way that suits you. Read more about your new language coach here.
Perhaps you already have books yourself and we will continue with your books. I can also recommend the right books to you. It doesn't matter what your native language is. Anyone can learn Dutch. Read more about learning Dutch as a second language here.
Where are the lessons?
Pineto Taaldiensten is located in Amsterdam. A lesson at your home is possible if you live in or near North Holland. This way we get the best out of the private lessons. It is always possible to take the lesson via video calling. We can also meet at the public library or a quiet café. Together we can discuss what the best option is.
When are the lessons?
Together we can determine the schedule of the lessons. It is also possible to take lessons in the evenings and on weekends.
How much and how often?
It depends entirely on your personal situation how many lessons you need. If you want to learn the basics of the Dutch language in a standard situation with a course book, you will need ten to twenty lessons. You can then take a lesson every week. It is also possible to take two lessons per week. Together we look for the best solution.
What does a lesson look like?
A lesson is different for everyone because I look at your specific situation. If you, for example, choose to learn Dutch through a course book, we work on a chapter in each lesson. If you want to take it slower, we can also work on a chapter for several lessons. During the lesson I provide additional explanation about the grammar. We have conversations together in Dutch and I help you with your pronunciation. Every lesson I give you several tips and, if you want, additional exercises. Of course you can ask anything about the Dutch language during the lesson. You can do homework between lessons so that you learn Dutch even faster.
How can you start?
Before we start one or more lessons, we can first get acquainted by telephone. We will then see how I can help you with the Dutch language. We can then schedule the first lesson. It is not necessary to register for multiple lessons immediately. It's okay to start with one lesson. After the first lesson we can make a plan and schedule multiple lessons.
