Dutch Tutoring FAQ
Dutch is a complex language that includes a variety of features that make it a difficult tongue for native English speakers to pick up. Certain aspects of Dutch correspond with areas of German, while others more closely align it with the English language. This unique mixture of familiar and new features can make Dutch a challenge to learn for those who grew up speaking English. Of course, grammatical mastery is only half the battle. Anyone aiming to become fluent in Dutch has vocabulary to learn, pronunciation to master, and reading skills to develop. Whether you are a business professional preparing for a trip, a student striving to fulfill their language requirements, or intend to take on a future profession that requires a thorough knowledge of Dutch, Varsity Tutors can help you can find an able tutor to work with.
Learning Dutch in a classroom setting means learning the language at the pace of the whole class. For example, your instructor may be speeding over aspects of the language you may find confusing. Or, they may spend too much time focused on a concept that you've successfully grasped. It can be frustrating to be put into such a situation, though it is impossible to provide individual attention to a full classroom of scholars. Similarly, if you're trying to learn Dutch using impersonal resources like websites and textbooks, you may not be getting the personal attention you need to achieve fluency. After all, developing Dutch conversation skills requires a partner to converse with in Dutch. Without one, you could end up mispronouncing even simple phrases and terms in Dutch, which would make conversation with an actual Dutch speaker difficult and awkward.
Call the Varsity Tutors educational directors to connect with professional Dutch tutors who are capable of helping you master the most difficult aspects of the language. The directors can work with you to craft a student profile and choose from a variety of experienced and knowledgeable tutors online. You can find a tutor who is able to teach to your learning style who has experience in focusing on the concepts that you are struggling in. In addition, they have a track record of supporting their students as they achieve their fluency goals.
Whether you want to focus exclusively on developing your speaking, writing, or reading skills, or wish to master all three, your tutor can draw up a learning plan that addresses your specific concerns. With private instruction, you can work at whatever pace best allows you to learn the material. There's no need to worry about keeping up with the rest of a class because your tutor is only concerned with helping you improve your knowledge of Dutch. This means that you can receive instant feedback on your work as you go, have questions answered as they come up, and practice your conversational skills with your instructor as much as needed to help you feel comfortable speaking Dutch. Additionally, your Dutch tutoring sessions can be scheduled where and when it works best for you, making lessons convenient, flexible, and accessible. The Varsity Tutors live learning platform allows you to meet with a private tutor either in person or face-to-face online. This gives you the flexibility to meet with your tutor at the time and location of your choice.
Many personal Dutch tutors use a variety of language learning strategies to help you get the language down pat. You may receive a variety of materials chosen just for you, such as Dutch television shows, movies, artwork, music, and many other items that can help you get to know the Dutch culture, which is critical to fully comprehending the language.
Dutch tutoring prioritizes your needs, concerns, and schedule to give you the most effective and convenient tutoring experience possible. Contact the Varsity Tutors directors today for more information about Dutch tutoring or to begin arranging for your first session!

Recent Dutch Tutoring Session Notes
The student and I went straight to work. He has an oral Mandarin final on this upcoming Thursday, so we went through his textbook and looked for questions he can ask his conversation partner. The topic of his final is location and campus grounds.
To begin, I quizzed the student on the vocabulary from lesson seven, dialogue two and lesson five as review. We then went over some grammar points and worked on translations in his workbook from lesson five.
We reviewed our new words from the last lesson, which included man, woman, and child. We did an activity on her tablet where she listened to statements and had to choose the correct picture that matched the statement. We also started a new lesson which began with a poem about a flower garden, identified the words that she knew, and learned the new vocabulary.
The student reported that he is now receiving A's in Chinese. Today, we reviewed his homework packet and his classwork packet and practiced having conversations about similar topics. I emphasized correct pronunciations of tones, consonants, and vowels, and also increasing the smoothness of speech in Chinese. He was able to ask and answer questions about this unit's material without me needing to help him. His handwriting in Chinese was looking good, too.
In this class, we finished the sentence structure in Chinese. We learned how to emphasize certain element of the sentence and how to form the present progressive tense in Mandarin. We also did some practice in the sample test. He did a great job on the practice questions. We will go on doing practice next class.
The student and I reviewed 3 old stories together: The Busy Bee (which was at a very advanced level), Beibei Disappears (intermediate), and The Garden (intermediate). We then went over 3 new stories, which were at an intermediate level. These stories were all animated children's stories with characters and audio from a Chinese language website for kids.
