About me: Saskia was born and raised in Amsterdam. She studied Classical Languages in university, and was a Latin and Dutch grammar tutor to high school students for many years. While living in Italy in 2008, she was asked to teach Dutch to a group of Italians. Back in the Netherlands, she continued teaching Dutch as a foreign language. In the meantime she worked at a bookstore specialized in language study materials, and also as a musician playing in small groups.
Currently Saskia teaches individual classes and group lessons to both beginners and advanced students, and is continuously working on new ideas and materials. In her lessons, she makes creative use of the different insights and techniques she acquired during her own education and work experience. She likes to pay extra attention to the pronunciation and intonation of the Dutch language.
