Video intro
About Michel M.
📚 Want to pass a Dutch exam, improve your Dutch for work, or finally feel confident speaking Dutch in everyday situations? I can help you achieve your goals with structured, personalized lessons. 🙋♂️ My name is Michel, a native Dutch speaker and qualified teacher with more than 25 years of teaching experience. Currently, I'm taking a deep dive into Cambodian culture while working here on Preply as a Dutch language teacher. As a professional teacher and someone who is currently learning Khmer himself, I understand the challenges language learners face and the importance of having a patient and supportive teacher. 🎓 EXPERIENCE 🎓 My teaching journey has taken me across the world. 🌍 I've worked in the Netherlands, the Maldives, Peru, Bangladesh, and now Cambodia. My students describe me as friendly, patient, and supportive, while also being focused and results-oriented. I create a relaxed learning environment where mistakes are seen as a natural part of the learning process, while still encouraging you to improve with every lesson. 🏆 Goals I can help you with 🏆 Teaching students from different cultures and backgrounds has taught me one important lesson: there is no single best way to learn a language. During the trial lesson, we discuss the best way you can reach one of these or other goals: ✓ Passing the Dutch integration (inburgering) exam ✓ Preparing for work or business in the Netherlands ✓ Speaking Dutch with your partner, family, or friends ✓ Feeling more confident in everyday conversations ✓ Reaching a higher level of Dutch (B2, C1, or C2) Learning Dutch doesn't have to be overwhelming. With the right structure, clear goals, and regular practice, you'll make steady progress and gain confidence every step of the way. Let’s start today and book your trial lesson!

I’m really glad I found Michel. He is very professional. It’s not a “let’s just have fun and chat” type of lesson — it’s a more thorough and structured approach to actually improving your Dutch. And you do notice progress quite fast.
