Keep in Dutch

18/12/2025

We finished another year of productive classes, great progress and fun conversations. Thank you to all my amazing students and for your trust. I have been off social media for the past couple of years, but this doesn't mean language school Keep in Dutch is not active, in the contrary, I have never been busier, what a blessing! Check out my website for the newest updates www.keepindutch.info
Wishing you happy holidays, fijne feestdagen and a happy new year, een gelukkig nieuwjaar!🎄

We hebben deze ochtend gepuzzeld met de songtekst van MEAU - Blijven Rijden tijdens het Taalcafé van Bibliotheek Landgraaf. De deelnemers van het taalcafé hebben een paar keer geluisterd naar het lied en de juiste woorden in de tekst geplaatst. Dat was heel leuk om samen te doen en toen we klaar waren, hebben ze zelfs het liedje meegezongen. Trots!

Vanochtend een te gekke muzikale taalworkshop verzorgd tijdens het Taalcafé van Bibliotheek Landgraaf-Onderbanken!

Onder leiding van singer-songwriter en taalcoach Martina Lucic gingen de deelnemers aan de slag met muzikale woordpuzzels. Ook hebben ze samen gezongen.

Mooi om de kracht van muziek in relatie tot taal over te mogen brengen!

I'm so blessed with the nice recommendations I received from my previous (and current) students:
"Martina is a reliable, patient, flexible teacher with excellent communication skills." - Viktoria Hoefsmit
"She's super knowledgeable, witty and helps explain and give nuance to the language in ways that an app can not." - Sara Hays
"Beside her teaching skills and attitude, she is very friendly and funny so lessons with her are also relaxing and some kind of entertainment during the work days." Inez Bronowicka-Loza

Morgen 1 juni 14:00-16:00
Taal op Tafel: Keukentafelzingen!

Samen zingen is leuker dan alleen. En je hoeft niet mooi te kunnen zingen. Ook hoef je geen noten te kunnen lezen. Gewoon gezellig samen liedjes oefenen, zittend aan de ‘keukentafel’.

Doe je mee? 🎶♥️

Fijne workshop gegeven vanmiddag! Over 2 weken ben ik weer terug met Keukentafelzingen, op 1 juni van 14:00-16:00.

Kom je meezingen met je favoriete Nederlandse liedjes?

New spots available 🥳

Looking for a private Dutch teacher? I got you! I have been blessed to have been teaching for over 5 years now. I adore my job, because watching someone grow and learn Dutch is amazing. I'm this nerd who loves grammar, which hopefully helps while learning, because I know not everyone's a fan of grammer, but I'll make it fun for you! My courses are also tailor-made, we either work with a learning method or we don't. Book an intake with me for free (15 minutes) and we can talk about what you need and see if it's a match!

My available times are:
Every Monday 15:30 - 16:30
Every Friday 14:00 - 15:00
Online or at my office in Heerlen

If you're interested, I look forward to seeing your message.

There's also an anniversary coming this March. 2022 marks 5 years of teaching, beautiful friendships, amazing life lessons, learning about new cultures and growing as a Dutch teacher. I'm grateful and looking forward to the next 5!

A little appreciation post for my work and my students When I was young, I was so fascinated by languages. My parents are from Bosnia, so I grew up bilingual in The Netherlands. I always had two words for one object, two different grammar rules in my head and construction a sentence wasn’t always ...
