Private Dutch lessons online
At the doctor. At work, when your colleagues switch to English. In your inburgering or NT2 exam. Or at school, when your child needs extra help. In this private one-to-one Dutch course over Zoom, every lesson is about what you need.
Not sure where to start? Talk it through in a free video call before you pay anything.
You work on what you need, at your own pace. The whole lesson is yours.
The letter, the form, the quick question at the desk. Dutch for beginners starts at your very first words, with the Dutch you need for shops, the doctor, work and meeting people.

Yes. You don't need to know any Dutch, and your English doesn't have to be perfect. You can get explanations in English when you need them.
Usually they do, and they can be a good choice. In a group you share the speaking time. An app can't listen to you or answer your questions. In a private lesson, the whole hour is spent on you. You can also combine them: use an app for daily practice and private lessons for what you find hardest.
That depends on your level, your goal and how much you practise between lessons. Talk about it in your free intro. If you plan to take more lessons, ask about the package deal too.
