About Gunter G.
Hi, I’m Gunter, a native Dutch speaker from Flanders, the Dutch-speaking part of Belgium. For more than thirty years my work has been about people: as a manager, trainer and coach I have guided adults in Belgium and abroad. Explaining things until they are truly understood, and putting people at ease, is simply what I love doing, and it is exactly what a language learner needs. I lived and worked in South Africa for years, and spent time in other countries in Europe, Africa and Asia. So I know from experience what it feels like to function in a language that is not your own: at the doctor’s, at work, at the school gate. That made me patient and non-judgemental. Outside teaching, I enjoy long conversations, travel and meeting people who see the world differently than I do. teach Dutch through conversation. Speaking is at the heart of every lesson; reading, writing and listening come in to support what you actually need in real life: a chat with colleagues, a job interview, the doctor, your child’s school, or the integration exam in Belgium or the Netherlands (A2 to B1). My background is in training and coaching adults, and that shapes how I teach: we start from your goal, not from a textbook. The first lesson is a conversation about your level and what you want to be able to do within three months; from there you get a simple plan. Each lesson is mostly talking about your own daily life, with short exercises on pronunciation and vocabulary and a few sentences you can use right away. Grammar comes in when you need it, not as a goal in itself. I explain in English or French whenever that helps, and after every lesson you receive a short written summary of the new words and sentences. Fear of speaking is the biggest obstacle in learning any language. In my lessons mistakes are not a problem, they are the material we work with. Building confidence in a calm, friendly atmosphere matters more than speaking perfectly; those who dare to talk make the fastest progress. Whether you are moving to Belgium or the Netherlands, working with Dutch-speaking colleagues, preparing for an integration exam, or simply want a real native speaker to practise with: book a trial lesson and let’s find out together what you need. Evenings and weekends are possible, and time zones are never a problem.
