In this episode, I share something that even surprised me: my Switch to Dutch method doesn’t only work for internationals… it works for Dutch people too!
Last week, I gave my first workshop for a group of Dutch language enthusiasts. I did an excercise with them that confirmed everything you experience when you try to speak Dutch: tension, panic, searching for words, a body that shuts down.

In this podcast, you’ll hear:

  • why your body freezes when you try to speak Dutch

  • what Dutch people feel too when they try to speak another language

  • how they can support you better than you think

  • the simple adjustments Dutch speakers can make to help you succeed

  • how you can start this conversation with Dutch people around you

  • and the moment when my entire mission “clicked”: you – teachers – Dutch people.

Send this to your favorite Dutchie so they can help you with: simpler language, slower pace, more patience…

If you want my guidance to finally speak Dutch with confidence - without switching back into English - join Dutch Speaking Mastery. New groups start in February.

Let me know what you think of this episode. A review or like helps me reach more people like you who are ready to switch to Dutch.

You’re doing great.

Step by step, you’re getting there.

Liefs,

Mariska
