    I would definitely recommend Rikst! Really enjoying my lessons. She makes it fun and engaging, creating bespoke lessons for your needs and learning curve. There is always homework and ways to improve between classes. She is structured and clear, and corrects in a way that is kind and supportive.

    I always look forward to my lessons with Rikst. We have really enjoyable conversations, and she gives just the right amount of correction, helping me build confidence and speak naturally while continuing to improve. Thanks to her, my Dutch has improved enormously, and I even feel confident speaking on the phone.

    I needed to study for two dutch exams in a short period of time. I was stuck trying to identify what my problems where and what I needed to improve. Rikst Helped me do that and helped me improve. I gave a 5 star due to her knowledge and her experience and clarity everything was great.

    I started having dutch lesson last setember to improve my confidence with speaking. I had lessons previously with other organization to learn the basis but I found it extremely hard to speak. Rikst is very nice and understanding. She prepares the lessons before but she can also adapt in relation to what the student wants to do. In class we do a lot of different activities to utilize dutch, like normal conversation, watching videos, commenting on news or topics of interest, etc. I find the books also and exercices that she brings very useful and her explainations clear.

  • Yasmin · January 10, 2026

    I started having Dutch classes with Rikst in March last year, and I feel I’ve been progressing very well. I really like her way of teaching. Rikst uses a structured book, but the lessons are never boring. We practice conversations, listen to audios, and she sometimes sends me helpful videos as well. I also get homework, which really helps me practice and improve. All of this has made learning Dutch much easier and more effective for me. I feel more confident every month, and I truly believe I will reach my goal of B1 level with her help. I highly recommend Rikst as a Dutch teacher!
