Mada is een uitzonderlijke docent. Ik kan haar met gemak aan iedereen aanbevelen. Ze is enthousiast, gepassioneerd en flexibel met plannen. Mada maakt Nederlands leren leuk. Ze gebruikt gedichten, idiomen en gezegden aan het einde van de les, waar ik van hou!
I had the pleasure of learning Dutch with an exceptional teacher who truly embodies the essence of learning with fun and enthusiasm. From my 1st meeting, it was evident that she possesses a deep passion for both the Dutch language and for facilitating learning experiences for her students.
One of the standout qualities of my Dutch language teacher is her infectious enthusiasm. Her energy and excitement for teaching make every lesson engaging and enjoyable. I look forward to every lesson with her! She has a knack for igniting a similar passion for the language within her students, creating an environment where learning feels like an exciting adventure rather than a mundane task.
Flexibility is another attribute that sets her teacher apart. Despite her busy schedule, she always goes above and beyond to accommodate and change plans as per my needs and work.
Moreover, her teaching style is both comprehensive and adaptable. She employs a variety of teaching methods and resources to cater to different learning preferences. Every lesson she uses an idiom, a fortune cookie or a saying in Dutch which is so great!
In summary, my experience learning Dutch with Mada has been nothing short of fantastic. Her passion, enthusiasm, and flexibility make her an exceptional educator. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking to learn Dutch in an engaging, fun and effective manner. Dankjewel Mada!

मादा एक उत्कृष्ट शिक्षक हैं।मादा आठ महीने से मेरी शिक्षिका हैं। उन्होंने मेरी बातचीत करने की क्षमता को बेहतर बनाने में मदद की है। वह बहुत मिलनसार हैं और मुझे उनकी कक्षायें बेहद पसंद हैं।

The very best!
Mada is an excellent teacher and a great choice for one-on-one lessons! We have been working together for seven months now, and she’s helped me improve my Dutch comprehension and speaking.
I appreciate that her lessons are personalised based on her students’ interests. We generally go to museums and parks for ‘walk and talk’ lessons and do an hour-long zoom lesson focused on grammar. Mada is very personable and friendly. You can’t make a wrong choice taking her as your teacher!

Mada has helped me go from zero Dutch to speaking it with confidence. Her technique is to build the lesson around your individual interests and learning preferences. It’s not a linear learning style but a dynamic lesson that gets you talking about the topics you find fascinating. Being able to practice through interesting conversations has really accelerated my level in Dutch and I think it’s been down to this personalised approach. And if you have limited hours in the week to learn, Mada will do her best to suit your schedule. She is a truly wonderful teacher. Dankjewel Mada!

После того, как я приехал в Голландию и устроился там на работу, мне срочно было нужно совершенствовать знания языка. Я начал учить голландский с Мадой и очень этим доволен. За 2-3 месяца учёбы, совершенно не говоря на голландском, я уже мог поддержать небольшие разговоры со своими коллегами. Отдельно хочется отметить профессионализм и гибкость преподавателя (в плане расписания и в плане подхода к процессу обучения).
After I came to the Netherlands and got some job here I had to quickly improve my language skills. So I started to study Dutch with Mada and I am very happy about that. After 2-3 months me being busy with studies, completely speaking no Dutch in the beginning, I could afford myself to have some small daily talk with my colleagues. Especially I’d like to point out professionalism and flexibility of my teacher in terms of schedule and in terms of educational process itself.

Es ist immer wunderschön zu sehen wenn deine Lehrerin mit Leidenschaft Ihre Kurse gibt. Mada zeigt Ihre Leidenschaft und Kreativität in jeder Stunde den Sie gibt. Die Zeit verfliegt nur und man merkt fast garnig das man eine Sprache studiert. Mein Ziel in den zwei-Monatigen intensiv Kurs war selbstbewusster in der Sprache zu werden. Dieses Ziel mit Ihrer Hilfe habe ich erreicht und da bin ich sehr dankbar für. Wenn du also jemanden suchst auf eine individuelle Art und Weise Holländisch zu lernen, empfehle zu 100 Prozent Mada als Lehrerin zu haben.
It is always so lovely to see when a teacher is so passionate in the style of her teaching. Mada brings passion and creativity to her style of learning in every session with her students. Her teaching is fun and the time just flies. My goal in the 2 month intensive course was to become more confident in Dutch. With the help of Mada I was easily able to achieve this. If you are therefore looking for someone that provides an individualized style of learning a language I highly recommend Mada.

A Mada é exatamente a professora que eu precisava. Mas mais do que isso é uma excelente mentora e inspiração.
É uma professora muito experiente e tem uma facilidade enorme em se ajustar ao ritmo do aluno porque apesar de eu querer muito aprender holandês, nem sempre consigo ter a mesma disponibilidade e motivação. As aulas de holandês tornam-se muito leves pela variedade de materiais a que a Mada recorre. Desde livros a canções e pelo entusiasmo que a caracteriza e que se torna contagiante.
Tem-me acompanhado desde Haarlem até agora a Taiwan e mesmo com a diferença horária e a dose certa de flexibilidade conseguimos continuar as nossas aulas. Eu recomendo a Mada como professora porque ela gosta verdadeiramente do que faz e combina competência com uma maneira descontraída de ensinar que se ajusta perfeitamente ao que eu procuro num professor. Obrigada Mada, tem sido uma aventura muito interessante aprender holandês consigo!

Mada is a great teacher. Her lessons are not only theoretical. She’s mixing them also with fun stuff like songs in Dutch which helps to have an idea of the Dutch speech pace and pronunciation, with the books reading and dialogs in roles. It all makes my Dutch lessons fun and easy to digest. Mada has a lot of patience and understanding with her students which you can imagine is absolutely needed when you are learning a second language being in your 30s and having a full time job. Even during the corona we continue our lessons in the online world.
The small Dutch sayings at the end of the lesson always make my day. I can absolutely recommend Mada as a teacher to anyone who is starting their adventure with Dutch language.

Personas diferentes aprenden de forma diferente y Mada es muy consciente de ello. No solo se adapta a tu nivel de holandés y a tus intereses temáticos, sino también a tu disponibilidad y horarios. Sus clases son entretenidas y con un contenido muy variado, utiliza todas las herramientas a su alcance (libros, canciones, juegos, incluso excursiones…) y además presta mucha atención a la pronunciación (algo que en muchos otros cursos se descuida). Con ella aprenderás holandés y la cultura del país sin que te resulte nada aburrido.
Verschillende mensen leren in verschillende manieren en Mada is ervan bewust. Ze kan helemaal adapteren op jouw Nederlands niveau, de thema’s die je leuk vindt en ook je beschikbaarheid. Haar lessen zijn leuk, met een gevarieerd inhoud, ze gebruik alle leren media zoals boeken, liedjes, spelletjes, ook leuke uitjes, en ze besteed aandacht naar je uitspraak, die soms vergeten bij andere cursussen is. Met haar gaat je op een leuke manier Nederlands en over de Nederlandse cultuur leren.

As an English Expat living in Holland, I was looking for a way to learn Dutch at the same time as balance a busy job and young child. Mada listened and understood my situation and tailored the learning around my interests. I progressed fast through songs and games and really enjoyed every lesson.

Mada is an excellent teacher. She is very experienced and Professional. She is enthusiastic and perfect choice not only for the beginners but also for those who want to excel the language (high level courses). I took my first Dutch lessons (course) from her and I had such a wonderful experience.
She has a very interesting and variant way of teaching like with puzzles, songs, Idioms, proverbs and interactive outing. After each class we use to get some exercises as homework from her which is very important for learning and she took some tests to encourage us to learn fast. She also encouraged us to speak in Dutch all the time during our classes. When we were making mistakes she helped us to understand the thesaurus of the word which really helped me to remember the words.
She was very flexible as well. We took lesson while work so we had to cancel some classes because of meetings and adjust out timing. She was always happy to make adjustments according to us. Sometimes we were late in our class but she was extremely understanding and patient with the us throughout our course. She also helped our colleagues (other students) to prepare for Dutch exam even though it wasn’t the part of our course. I absolutely recommend her for beginners and also for someone who preparing for Dutch exam (inburgeren).

Ich sprach schon gut Niederländisch, bevor ich meine Stunden mit Mada begann. Mir war vor allem wichtig, die Schönheitsfehler auszubessern und gewisse Grammatikfragen im Detail zu erläutern, so wie auch sicherer zu werden in meiner Aussprache. Mada hat mir dabei sehr geholfen. Jede Stunde war anders aufgebaut, so dass es nie langweilig wurde. Mit verschienden Hilfsmitteln (Bücher, Audio, Spielekarten, Bilder etc.) war jede Stunde mit Mada interessant, abwechslungs- und lehrreich.
Ik sprak al goed Nederlands voor ik mijn lessen met Mada begon. Voor mij was het belangrijkste, mijn “schoonheidsfoutjes” te verbeteren en enkele grammatica vragen in het detail te bekijken. Ik wou me ook veiliger voelen in mijn uitspraak. Mada heeft me ermee heel veel geholpen. Elke les was anders opgebouwt, zodat het nooit saai was.

I have been really lucky to have met such an amazing and powerful woman as Mada that made me learn from zero, the basics of Dutch in a few weeks, combining perfectly fun and concentration all in once. I didn’t think I would be able to learn such a difficult language in such a short time, but with Mada I was able not to only speak some fluent Dutch, but also be absorbed by her wonderful lessons and enjoy the time I spent with her. She made two hours feel like two minutes. Finally, I must mention that she even took me to the zoo one day, and I can definitely tell that it was amazing and I really appreciated the way she made classes so original and different from other teachers.

I began private lessons with Mada from Ja/Yes after moving from England to Haarlem, I was a complete beginner in not only the Dutch language but in learning a second language.
Mada first helped me set up my goals, what I needed from the language and made a plan on how to get there. I am a Chiropractor and to communicate with patients I needed a high level of understanding and speaking, but also I needed a wide range medical vocabulary. Mada focussed my lessons towards those topics in medicine, we had lessons that role-played patient/doctor conversations to act out common scenarios in my profession and she helped me translate important sentences that I would be using every day. Due to the fact Mada set up a very strong foundation in my understanding of the language and worked meticulously on my pronunciation, it made each challenge easier. Mada has been an absolute pleasure to work with, she happily teaches me in my home and with my ever-changing timetable with patients to she has been accommodating and versatile to my needs. She is able to answer my never-ending questions and always makes me feel relaxed when learning. The lessons have been fun and she uses a variety of materials to study from, keeping the lessons entertaining but also making it interactive which is a lot easier to learn. We have even had active lessons outside the house, to interact with other people and improving the learning experience.
I cannot recommend Mada highly enough; she has not only been my language teacher, but my personal cheerleader for when I could not see my own progress. Also, you get stickers.
