Video intro
About Prof. Teacher Kate
Born in the Netherlands to a Dutch father and English mother, I’ve spent 20 years in the UK bridging cultures and languages. As a bilingual academic with a PhD in Coastal Engineering, and a passion for teaching, I specialize in helping students *speak* Dutch confidently, whether you’re starting from scratch or refining fluency. My approach blends structured learning with lively conversations, tailored to your goals (art, engineering, or everyday life!). I used to play semi-professional tennis in the Netherlands, and now I am a professional artist & filmmaker in Scotland, and collaborate with actors, dancers, musicians and Artificial Intelligence.
Teaching style
The student's needs and requirements are discussed and targets are set to address these. I use a communicative learning pathway that suits the needs of language students: understanding, speaking, writing and reading Dutch. All lessons are conversation lessons in Dutch. Meaning, pronunciation and grammatical structures are offered and learned through given texts. The most frequently used words of the Dutch language are used in the texts. You can write me stories of your day, work, or hobbies, we can translate poetry, or talk about art, your passions, enjoyable topics of conversation during the lesson so that we get to know each other a bit while we learn.
