Practise Dutch (Flemish)

10


10 per session - Virtual OK - Posted Dec 29, 2018

In a 30-min. conversation using Skype, Messenger or WhatsApp we'll practise the Dutch/Flemish language* and talk about any subject you'd like to explore in Flemish Dutch.
This can be done either written or spoken, at your choice and depending on which skill you'd like to develop and practise.
Your level doesn't matter to me, as long as you have gained enough knowledge to have a simple conversation.

* In The Netherlands and in Flanders (Belgium) people speak Dutch. The difference is similar to the difference between British and American English: different pronunciation (Flemish sounds more gently and softer than Dutch, that has harsher sounds), words, idioms, even grammatical differences, but overall we'll still understand each other!

Training & Qualifications


I'm a native speaker of Flemish Dutch. Also, I've been into languages since I was a child. I love grammar and syntactical questions, although I've been out of it for a while now. I've also worked as a text corrector for a Dutch publisher.
And I love talking with people, preferably not too superficially, but for a 30-min. talk I'm fine all ways!
Your level doesn't matter so much to me, soon enough we will find out where you are at! :-)

Availability & Preferences


Very unpredictable, so just set an appointment!

Trading Preference: I prefer being paid in simbi

The economy that we created in the world is way off. Just like an unconditional basic income for everyone, I feel a more symbiotic economy would be a lot healthier and happier for everyone.

About Marieke Van Coppenolle

My spirit name being Wandering Oak I've been living a nomadic life since 2004, living very simply in a self-converted van with a woodstove. Before that I raised three children. I'm totally in love wit...h my grandson! :-) The (re-)connection of our Mother Earth and her human children is very important to me. I saw how burnt-out people are getting in our hectic, almost inhumane society. So somehow, unintentionally, I got into creating a special, ecological and harmonising, healing place... a temporary stay for burnt-out people and for artists, and to facilitate re-connecting activities that have to do with Nature, Rest, Healing and Creativity. To be able to fund the finishing of this place after my savings had already gone into it (and having almost no income which is very adventurous! :-)), I set up a not-for-profit organisation, recognised by the Belgian King Bauduoin Foundation, to make it all happen. International young volunteers come to help out, which makes its value even greater. As soon as the building will be finished and the organisation working fine, I hope to take up my simple nomadic lifestyle again... It's who I am... my soul's agenda...show more
