Over Juf Julia

I am Juf Julia and I am ready to help your child reach his/her Dutch language goal. I am a primary school teacher in the Dutch system, with a very international trajectory. I have been an expatriate, a language learner myself and I am also a proud mother of multilingual children. I fully understand what a newcomer needs to succeed in this new land and language adventure, and the linguistic and non-linguistic challenges expat parents and their children face everyday in The Netherlands.

Language is crucial to communicate with people in our eveyday life. Children attending an extra curricular activity in Dutch will feel much more confortable when they can interact in Dutch with other Dutch speaking children, for sure! This is why learning Dutch is an essential factor to feel good and more confident, for children as well as for adults.

Moreover, as a teacher in the Dutch school system, I have seen how intimidating Dutch schools can be to newcomers and expatriates. I have also observed very closely how a child can "close" or "block" and get scared by this whole new experience, specially when teachers are not acquainted with non-Dutch customs and cultures, the way I am. Unfortunately, and in lots of cases, the child's fear is misunderstood, and it can interpreted as "retard" or as a learning problem, when in many cases, it is just not.

I can surely help your child(ren) make progress, learning in a playful way, thanks to all my teaching experience, structured and personalized lessons and child development psychological processes knowledge.
