About Me

italki teacher since Jun 13, 2019

Hello! I am Sofie, a Dutchie living in Cape Town, South Africa. I have travelled a lot and lived in different countries, so I understand the importance of practicing your new language with a native speaker in a safe and easy going environment. I can help you with our Dutch conversation classes, or Spanish or English if you so prefer. Also if you speak English or Spanish and would like to learn Dutch or learn more about Dutch culture, I can help you in your own language. Come chat with me about whatever topic interest you, I am a writer, traveller, animal lover and I just love meeting people from all over the world! Let's have a chat :)

Me as a Teacher

I am very easy going, and available after office hours or on the weekends. You can choose what we will chat about, and I will not 'kill' a conversation by correcting you every word. We will chat, and after a while I will see where we can improve your skills here and there. I am very patient, especially since I learned Spanish without classes, simply by talking to my friends, I understand how important it is to not feel pressured while practicing your language. Plus, you always know more then you think!

My lessons & teaching style

We will have a relaxed cup of tea behind our computers together. If you like you can choose a topic to talk about, or if you prefer I can prepare something to discuss with you. I am a big fan of conversational classes, rather then kill the buzz by studying too much grammer. Great if you can write perfectly, but if you can't chat away in your new language, you are missing out!

Sofie is a great teacher. Although it was my first italki lesson ever, I felt so comfortable. Thank you so much!

The best teacher I ever had. Professional, but friendly and motivating at the same time. I truly recommend Sofie to everyone who wants to go on with the language.

I’m just beginning to learn Dutch, so I appreciate how encouraging Sofie is when I make mistakes or blank on a certain verb. She has a really friendly and conversational style of teaching which makes you feel at ease. I highly recommend Sofie to other people looking to learn Dutch on iTalki!

Vanavond hebben we gesproken over verschillende onderwerpen. Ik vind dat ik zelfverzekerder ben geworden toen ik nu spreek. Bedankt Sofie!
