I had a great learning experience at Hollandse Meester! The teacher was fun, professional, and knowledgeable. I had one on one lessons for six months, and afterwards able to speak and write Dutch at work. Highly recommended!

Jan’s lessons are very well structured for optimum progress while there are lots of fun things to do 🙂 Also introduction to various aspects of Dutch culture and practicalities must be very helpful for those who are new to the country or would like to finally give it a shot! The teacher is also a lovely good person. Highly recommended!

Jan is an enthusiastic teacher that adapts his style to each student. He is very motivating and knowledgeable and finds always themes that are interesting. He uses different apps to send all new vocabulary and he treats each student in a very personal way. Thanks to Jan I got my Dutch to the next level and I can fully recommend him. As an addition to his skills as Dutch teacher he is up to date on what is on in the Netherlands!

I have been a student for 3 years, and I am incredibly happy with my progress as a Dutch language student! It is a personal learning experience that is made to match my needs. My lessons are tailored to make them relevant to my experience here living and working in The Netherlands. I couldn’t ask for a better way to learn a new language!

Jan is a great instructor both in the group setting and private lessons. He makes the lesson fun and engaging while keeping on track with important parts of the book. His flexibility in schedule and tailoring the lesson to my personal goals was much appreciated.
