Maartje is so enthusiastic that it made me enthusiastic too about learning it!! She is super clear when she explains stuff. The way she shows how much the Dutch language looks like English makes it so much easier to understand too.

I thought Dutch courses were boring, but this one really shows how fun it can be. I love her way of teaching with humor and positivity, can't wait for the rest!

I run an ice cream shop where I meet a lot of English-speaking people. Whenever someone tells me they want to learn Dutch, I always recommend her lessons. She’s really good at it!

Hi! I’m Maartje. Dutch is my language, teaching it is my passion. And yes, the lessons are free!
All about free learning
Why are the lessons for free?
I started offering free Dutch lessons because I love helping people learn my language. I’m not doing this to earn money, but to make learning Dutch more fun and accessible, especially for young adults.
Is a full course coming soon?
Based on your interests, I’m planning to create a fun and engaging Dutch course, built around what you want to learn.
The full Dutch course will take about 6 weeks to develop. If you want to be notified as soon as it launches, sign up using the button on the homepage.
Will the lessons stay free?
Yes! The first three lessons are completely free, and there will be more free lessons coming soon.
To be completely honest: running this platform takes a lot of time and money. For the full course, I may ask for a small contribution (€10–30, depending on the level) to help cover the costs of the website and the tools I use.
But no worries: it's completely your choice if you want to continue learning. The goal will always stay the same: learning Dutch affordably and with heart.❤️
