About Axel K.
Hi everyone! My name is Axel. I grew up bilingual in German and Dutch, and I've been speaking English my whole life. I live in Zaandam with my amazing wife Katrina, who is English. Because of this, I know firsthand how challenging it can be to learn Dutch. Our language is just quite difficult, especially the pronunciation of that hard g! I think it can be really valuable to help you understand the language, the culture, and of course, the gezelligheid. I was born and raised in Groningen, where I studied HR. Since 2016, I've been working in that field, which has given me a heart for the person behind HR. I love reading, going on vacation to explore other countries and cultures, and above all… eating! I also enjoy gaming, hitting the gym (to work off all that food 😜), and I love my city, Amsterdam, and everything it has to offer. I look forward to meeting you and helping you on your Dutch learning journey. See you soon! 😃 Over the past few years, I've taught my wife Dutch in a playful and conversational way. Additionally, I've been a job coach for various municipalities, where I was involved as an advisor within the EU, helping Dutch people moving abroad, and supporting people from EU countries settling in the Netherlands. In that role, I helped them with their landing, integration, and getting acquainted with Dutch society. This has allowed me to guide many different people from diverse cultures, wishes, and backgrounds. I’m happy to help you better understand the Dutch language. I think it really helps that my wife is an English expat, so I see up close the struggles she sometimes still has with the language. It can be quite frustrating to learn Dutch, and it’s definitely not always easy. But I’m here to help you through it! No fluffy Dutch that you can't use, but practical Dutch that you can really use in everyday life.
