Giới thiệu bản thân
Là giáo viên italki từ 22 Jan năm 2021
Hello my name is Steffan Ricardo van den berg, however; people call me Rick (or in Asia more often than not, Lick). I teach because I’ve discovered it’s something I truly love to do. It’s the thing that enables me to positively contribute to people’s life with my personality and skill set. I've lived in the Netherlands (duh), Singapore, China and currently in Thailand. I managed to get a criminal record in only one of these countries ... can you guess which? And why?
I studied Mandarin for a few months, however; due to being ‘stuck’ in Thailand I switched to studying Thai. Every culture is wonderful and I'm grateful for all the people that have exposed me to their culture and language.
Tôi với tư cách là giáo viên
Building a strong foundation for the student to excel in their life journey is my goal. Motivating them and making sure they enjoy developing their language skills is my job. It may sound cheesy, but it’s true nonetheless; seeing the smile on the faces of students is my reward.
I've taught English for the past two years in Singapore, China, Myanmar. My focus has always been phonemic awareness and vocabulary building. Hence I'll be able to help you best with pronunciation and literacy skills.
Phong cách dạy & bài học của tôi
Our classes are informal and focus on your goal - we will talk about this in our first e-meeting. When I know what you want, I'll be able to tailor our classes to your fit. We will focus on the process of learning the language. I like banter and relaxed interaction in class, but I'll also be strict where needed.
Als gevolg van mijn gemis van slaap gisteravond, was mijn Nederlands vandaag minder dan goed tijdens de les 😅
Desondanks was het gelukkig toch nog supergemakkelijk om een heel leuk en gezellig gesprek met Rick te kunnen voeren 😊😊

Another lovely lesson with Rick today! Really enjoyed myself throughout the entire thing 😁
The great thing about Rick is that no matter what kind of mood or state you may be in, (mine being particularly hyperactive/silly today), he is always there encouraging you & making you feel 100% comfortable in whatever mindset you’ve come to the lesson with.
Nogmaals super echt bedankt voor de ontzettend leuk en geweldige les! 😁

My Dutch was... let’s just say, not coming out 𝒒𝒖𝒊𝒕𝒆 as well or flawlessly as I would’ve liked it to have been this lesson. 🥴 NEVERTHELESS, Rick remained incredibly supportive & encouraging and not once did his patience with me ever dwindle, even when the majority of my attempts at saying a correctly formed sentence would, in fact, take me about 5 years to do... 😅
Great tutor, 11/10 would recommend!
Nogmaals heel erg bedankt voor de les Rick!
