She is very experience and she explained very well ,I enjoyed my class with her.
I'm a Dutch language tudor in Brussels and have teached kids, teens, refugees, politicians and others who want to learn more about this language. I'm interested in many subjects and will customize the classes to your needs. And will help you learn and speak Dutch in a fun, practical way. Homework and extra information on request, focus is on speech! And grammar is additional. All levels. Note: I'm from the Netherlands, so I don't speak Flemish! But for most people that's not a problem.

Also for more experienced students, this is an excellent course: you will be surprised by what you can learn! Module 1 = 10 classes (45 min)

Most big fashion companies work with Adobe Illustrator nowadays. Now you can too! First you'll learn the basics of this program in an efficient and fun way. You'll learn all the tools that you need and will get practical expert advice during the course! So after this course you will have the skills and confidence to start working your dreamjob! No experience needed, we start from scratch - step by step I'll guide you through this amazing program!
