I am Naomi and I'm the teacher and founder of Dutch Academy. I moved to Vancouver in July 2020 and it quickly felt like a second home.

In The Netherlands, I taught Dutch to refugee students at an elementary school, organized a program for gifted children, and developed learning materials for a comprehensive reading method.

At the Erasmus University in Rotterdam, I graduated with a Master's Degree in Educational Sciences, and a Bachelor's Degree in Education. 
I love teaching and developing learning materials and I have always been passionate about the Dutch language. Dutch expressions are my favorite! 

Now in Vancouver, I teach Dutch to students all over North America. It's my mission to make learning Dutch fun and exciting for everyone and share the Dutch culture and 'gezelligheid'!

Feel free to send me a message if you have questions about the courses, your level or if you need a certificate for a visa, school admission or employment.
