Extremely pleasant and reliable. Before starting my lessons with Maaike, I have had a few teachers, and I must say that Maaike is the best teacher I have ever had — and this, having learnt 4 languages to date.

Great teacher that puts in a lot of effort to really help you improve. She is great at listening and spotting the weakness in my language skills and used this understanding to create structured lessons to tackle my development needs.

Interesting, fun and a great way to integrate. I have taken many Dutch classes since I moved to Amsterdam and Maaike's are the best so far.

During the Covid-19 pandemic online classes, Maaike adapted to the virtual features amazingly well, including the usage of all the secret options of Zoom that I didn't even know existed and online-quizzes etc which made the lessons interactive despite being online. In addition she is extremely kind and highly organized.

Maaike is the best Dutch teacher I have ever had. I had three Dutch courses before meeting her. She is professional and dedicated.
