What clients say about us
Michael - Denmark
I have greatly enjoyed and benefitted from Monique’s comprehensive programme, which is excellent for foreigners wanting to learn the Dutch language from the beginning. Monique’s approach is very structured while she is also adaptive to specific wishes. Her methodology and use of various materials and media have motivated me to stay focused and ensured that I have maintained steady progress. Thanks to Monique I aim to pass the NT2 B-1 exams later this year and she has given me the appetite to progress further.
My only regret is not starting the course sooner after arriving in the Netherlands, which I would have benefitted from today.
Stepanka – Czech Republic
Monique’s approach and programme is ideal for all foreigners wanting to learn Dutch. The Boost Your Dutch programme is a balanced blend of building vocabulary, learning grammar and entertaining basic conversations. She is using various course materials including online videos, audio files, written materials, etc. Together, they offer a varied and stimulating learning process. I completed all courses (Nederlands 1-5) of the Boost your Dutch programme. Monique’s lessons have given me confidence and the appetite to practice the Dutch language amongst locals and thereby further improving my skills.
Carlos – Brazil
I started lessons with Monique around the beginning of 2022. I already had lessons in another place, but the quality is much better! The 1 on 1 classes really helped me to improve my reading, writing, speaking, and listening skills. Thanks to her, I was able to pass my inburgering exams without any trouble! Even after that, I continue taking lessons to further improve my skills and have the opportunity to use all the things I’ve learned.”
Ekaterina – Russia
With Monique’s help I have passed NT2 Staatexamen Programma II successfully. Monique is very positive and friendly, and grammar was always explained well. I certainly recommend Monique to help you with your Dutch journey.
Nour & Elias – Lebanon
My husband and I have signed up to Monique’s language courses shortly after moving to the Netherlands. We were both never exposed to the language before, and I can confidently say that we have experienced a significant and quick improvement on all levels (reading, writing, listening and speaking). Monique offers a fun and interactive way of teaching, she has a positive attitude when delivering her course and takes her time to adjust to your learning curve. She is always open to receiving questions and even goes the extra mile of sharing useful documents and links outside the curriculum set. She is helpful on all possible matters. We have tried the in-person as well as the online learning and in both cases we were extremely pleased with the delivery method, content and professionalism. We happily recommended the courses to several friends who were as pleased with the results as us.
Christina – India
I took the Boost Your Dutch Class and it helped me in learning the basic principles of Dutch, which is essential for learning a language. Monique is a great teacher to connect with, I got individual attention and it was worth it.
Laura – Brazil
After hearing from a friend about Monique’s lessons, I started my Dutch journey with her. The classes were always so nice and interesting that time would fly. After almost a year, I could say that I better understood the weird grammar and the Dutch culture. As I had to stop with weekly lessons, having the “Koffie & Conversatie op zaterdag” once a month, allows me to sit down with other students and force myself to use my Dutch, which helps me a lot in not losing my progress so far.
Uffe- Sweden
The Boost Your Dutch course was excellent and a quick way to learn the basics of Dutch. Your native secrets were real eye-openers.
Mehrsima – Iran
Monique is een enthousiaste lerares, altijd vrolijk, en zeer ervaren om het leren van talen leuk te maken. Ze legt alles heel duidelijk uit, en heeft enorm veel geduld om het vreemde accent van de internationale studenten te begrijpen. Ik raad haar online lessen van harte aan!
Terry – South Korea
I really enjoyed Dutch class with you. You made me feel comfortable and let me know many Dutch things as well as the Dutch language. I also appreciate your passion and efforts to teach me. I will keep learning Dutch and try to apply what I learned in your class to my daily life as much as possible.
Hana – Czech Republic
I have done many language lessons in numerous countries around the world and with no exaggeration Monique has been the best language teacher I have ever had. I have found myself learning Dutch with confidence and joy due to Monique’s superb organisational skills, deep understanding of the Dutch language and her ability to address the learner’s unique needs. During the course I have been surrounded with a multitude of audio, texts, videos, visuals, in class activities and very digestible doses of grammar concepts. This put together with Monique’s great teaching skills, friendly approach and ability to reflect on her teaching, has provided an exceptional learning environment. I have always been looking forward to my lessons and would recommend Monique to a Dutch newbee as well as a more advanced Dutch learner. With Monique your Dutch will thrive!
