I have been taking group Dutch lessons with Naomi for the past five months, and I can confidently say she is an outstanding teacher! Naomi's teaching style is incredibly engaging and tailored to adult learners. She combines traditional teaching methods with interactive activities, making each lesson both educational and enjoyable. I've studied in other language classes where the dynamic was akin to a dry classroom environment, but Naomi's classes have always felt like a group of friends hanging out and learning something interesting at the same time.
Naomi is exceptionally patient and always spends time answering questions from the homework or previous classes. She reviews everyone's homework and provides great individual feedback. Additionally, she is also receptive of feedback from students and is willing to adapt to their needs.
Her passion for teaching and deep knowledge of Dutch culture adds a wonderful dimension to her classes. Learning a language also involves learning the culture and I appreciate how she takes the time to share her culture with students. I especially appreciate all the Dutch snacks she brings to class!
Overall, Naomi is not just a teacher but a mentor who genuinely cares about her students' success - even if you miss a class, she will do her best to help you stay caught up. I feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to learn from Naomi. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to learn Dutch here - you won't find a better instructor!
