Linguist teaches Dutch for non-Dutch, for beginners and advanced students, individual and corporate lessons. Always interactive, interesting and gezellig!

I'm glad to share my outstanding experience with Joos's private B1-B2 language class, totaling 64 hours. Joos's approach is nothing short of exceptional, offering flexibility, understanding, and encouragement beyond the standard curriculum. Her ability to tailor classes to individual needs and moods creates a supportive and engaging learning environment. Moreover, Joos strikes a perfect balance between discipline and fun, making every class both informative and enjoyable. I highly recommend Joos to anyone seeking a dedicated, adaptable, and inspiring language teacher.

I am an HR coordinator at Flexport in Amsterdam and my experience with Joos has always been positive. We have organized several beginner and follow-up courses for our employees interested in learning the language. She is an enthusiastic, fun, and encouraging teacher. I highly recommend signing up for her classes!

Joos geeft les aan diverse groepen zorgprofessionals die vanuit het buitenland naar Nederland geëmigreerd zijn. De studenten zijn ontzettend blij met Joos en haar lessen! Ze leren veel en leuk dat de lessen inhoudelijk gaan over actuele onderwerpen en Nederlandse thema´s, zoals Koningsdag. Als opdrachtgever ervaren we Joos als betrouwbaar, enthousiast en communicatief. Ze regelt op tijd vervanging tijdens vakanties, bereid haar lessen en leerlingen altijd goed voor en krijgt zichtbaar energie van het lesgeven. Wij zijn blij met jou Joos!

I have been learning dutch for a while before I started with Joos and I can definitely feel a marked improvement. Her approach to teaching makes confident to make mistakes, as her corrections and methods are encouraging, engaging and fun!
I always recommend Joos to anyone who wants to learn dutch seriously with an interesting and talented teacher.

Joos has been my Dutch teacher for over a year and I cannot speak more highly of her teaching skills and professionalism. I have had the opportunity to have her in both group classes as well as individual and both have proven successful to increase my knowledge in my foreign language study. Joos always is finding ways to keep things interesting as well as adjusting her teachings to ensure I am picking up the material with also being patient and ensuring I don't feel judged. Joos ensures each class is fun and topical as well as challenging to help improve my skills. I highly recommend Joos as a language teacher and look forward to continuing classes with her!

Joos is an excellent teacher! We had a group with people at a few different levels, and Joos tailored the lessons so that they were accessible and useful for each of us.

Joos also did a nice job of relating our lessons to every day situations and Dutch cultural events. The lessons were engaging, fun, and overall quite valuable for my learning. Would recommend to anyone learning Dutch!

Joos is a wonderful teacher who is able to understand where I need help and adapt her lessons accordingly. I’d recommend her to any expat trying to learn Dutch.

Hallo allemaal,

To anyone that finds themselves whether they should go with Joos or another teacher - I implore you to stop now and choose Joos.

Joos truly enjoys teaching and has made my journey of learning Dutch a wonderful experience.

I could not imagine learning anyother way. Classes are interactive and fun yet challenging - but never difficult. Additionally she is ALWAYS prepared and on time. I look foward to our lessons!

Joos is truly an amazing teacher! I have struggled for a long time to learn the Dutch language but Joos has the remarkable gift of making each class engaging, interactive and fun! She works with your needs on how you can best learn, for me it's music. And helps you understand not only the fundamentals of the language but also how the language is used colloquially. Book her now, you will be very happy you did! Je krijgt er geen spijt van!!!

Joos is the kind of person with whom you immediately feel comfortable. During our shared studies of General Linguistics we learned how languages work; not just Dutch but the mechanisms of languages in general. This helicopter view allows Joos to quickly zoom in on your personal challenges with the Dutch language, based on your native language. Her playful way of teaching - using humor, keeping it light, and allowing room for mistakes - will make you enjoy learning.

Joos is a super nice teacher! Responsible and efficient, always comes up with nice content for the class and when I realise what time it is, our 1,5hr class is over, the time flies :) I 100% recommend Joos to the people who want or need to learn Dutch.
