About Me
Hello, I am Josina!
I was born and raised in Belgium, so my native language is Dutch (Flemish). I am also very familiar with Dutch from the Netherlands since I used to live 12 years in Amsterdam.
I have lived, studied, and worked in several wonderful places around the world. I studied Social and Cultural Anthropology in the Netherlands at the University of Amsterdam, I worked a while on the Spanish island of Gran Canaria and on the Greek Island Lefkada, I lived several years in Argentina and now, for the past 10 years, I have been living and working in Andalucía, in the south of Spain.
I am very passionate about learning and teaching languages and discovering different cultures. Apart from my native Dutch, I am also fluent in English and Spanish. And the past 4 years I have been learning Modern Greek with an online teacher. So, I know the challenges that come with learning a new language! It is fun, exciting but can be overwhelming at times. That’s why it's so important to have a good language teacher who can guide and motivate you.
As a Dutch language teacher, I want to take my students on a journey during our lessons. A journey to learn Dutch in a fun and easy way, based on your interests and wishes. It's also a journey of discovering the culture and traditions that are tied to the Dutch language.
I am looking forward to meeting you in our next Dutch lesson!
