Dutch Teacher Bert gives perfect lessons in small groups unlike the other teacher in Manilla. Specially the small groups give very good support (and results) to the students. He is very supportive. For us he is the best there is!! - Vincent

One of the best teacher in the Philippines. He is doing his best for all the students. And i learned a lot from him. - Syndie

The course is not only about Dutch, but also about the culture and culture differences between Belgium/The Netherlands and the Philippines. Sir Bert also helps with finding a suitable place to stay. As a teacher he really manages to get the best out of every student. I can honestly say that this course helped us with getting our marriage visa. So... money well spent, in my opinion. Salamat, Sir Bert. Dankuwel! - Bart

I'd like to thank Sir Bert cos he was really patient on the moments that Dutch was not so easy. He did not give up on helping me try to get it right, for example in the pronunciation of difficult words. Also he helped on finding a place to stay and picked me up from the airport. The course was not easy, but I am really glad I took it, cos it really helped us on getting our visa. If you'd ask if I take the course again... YES is the answer... - Rocel

Got a perfect score sa exam. So masasabi kong magaling talaga ang teacher nato... so kung sino man ang may balak mag aral ng Dutch, choose Sir Bert!

​

Michelle from NCR, Philippines → North Brabant, Netherlands

The coach was consistent and accurate with each of the lessons he taught us, and encourage us to do our assigments everyday which actually helped us (students) to learn Dutch fast and easy. He also supports his students through giving an extensive review on all the lessons before we actually took our embassy exam. I have passed my exam in the embassy in just one take and almost perfect score 👌👌

​

Anna from Davao del Sur, Philippines → North Holland, Netherlands

Sir Bert was awesome at teaching, very appreciated since this is not easy language for me. Class was fantastic. I really enjoyed it and made some friends. I would recommend sir Bert as a Dutch teacher to those looking to take this course.

More power to your teaching sir Bert!!!

Thank you so much!!!

The 3 main ingredients in successful learning:

1. Is to understand what is being taught

2. No stress and a fun atmosphere

3. No demands or pressure on a student

You have given us all these 3 main ingredients Sir Bert. Dutch is a very difficult language to learn but you made it a lot easier for me and the rest of my classmates to enjoy learning it. The method of your teaching is quite unique! You just didn't teach us the basic but also an advance level of learning that would help me when I get to the Netherlands. Thank you very much Sir Bert for your patience, passion and for sharing your knowledge to us. I definitely recommend "Dutch Teacher" to anyone who would like not only to learn but also to enjoy the Dutch language! "Two thumbs up to you Sir Bert!" Hartelijk Bedankt!!!

Jane from NCR, Philippines → Limburg, Netherlands

I would recommend Dutch Teacher to anyone who wants to learn Dutch. It is a fast paced course, and the level of Education is very high. As a preparation of the official Basis Exam Inburgering Nederland, this school is the best in its class. I passed in one take. Thanks to Dutch Teacher.

​

Ruby from Cebu, Philippines → South Holland, Netherlands

I followed the Dutch course with sir Bert, and I was happy to do so. I can recommend this Dutch course to anyone who really wants to learn it the right way. It's clear, practical and interactive. I learned a lot from sir Bert. Thank you so much.

​

Janeth from Isabela, Philippines → Limburg, Belgium

I would like to thank sir Bert for his patience in teaching us Dutch. It is not an easy language to learn, but because of his effort and help, I passed the exam immediately after I followed his course. Without him, I wouldn't be able to live with my family now in the Netherlands. Highly recommended!

Arnel from Batangas, Philippines → South Holland, Netherlands

Ik heb een goede opleiding ontvangen voor mijn toelatingsexamen bij de Nederlandse ambassade.

Heb dit examen in een keer gehaald. Na mijn aankomst in Holland heb ik examen gedaan voor mijn inburgering cursus. Dit heb ik ook in een keer gehaald mede door de goede vooropleiding welke ik in Manila van Bert heb mogen ontvangen.

​

Note from Dutch Teacher:

Lorna passed also her next civic integration exam in the Netherlands (level A2) very quickly.

In July-August 2015 she followed the Dutch civic integration course with us in Manila and passed the MVV exam in one take. A few months later she got her visa and once in the Netherlands she started with the next level. She passed also these exams in one take and in April 2017 she got her 'Inburgeringsdiploma'. That's a very big achievement in only a few months. Lorna and her Dutch partner asked us to make that diploma public on our website.

​

Lorna from Pangasinan, Philippines → South Holland, Netherlands

Dutch Teacher Meneer Bert is absolutely the best! I got a perfect score because of him. During my lessons with him, I had to skip the class for two weeks due to family vacation. He made it sure that I am up-to-date with the lesson and constantly communicating with me and my partner so I will not be left behind. I even had to do a test while I was in Thailand. He sent the test and made sure that my partner will administer it. He went further than his regular teaching method so I can learn well. Also, the class is small, making it more intensive which is really needed in learning the language. Everyone has her own fair share of the pie. 

And to add an important thing...with Sir Bert, I made good friends. I don’t feel alone here in the Netherlands since my classmates and those other students of him became my friends.

Wishing you Sir Bert the best!

Middels deze weg wil ik je ontzettend bedanken voor je inzet en hulp bij het leren van Nederlands aan Amira. Ik ben van mening dat je ontzettend goed werk geleverd hebt en ik ben hier ook erg blij mee. Het heeft me ook bevestigd dat wij de juiste keuze hebben gemaakt. Nogmaals heel erg bedankt en misschien tot ziens in de toekomst - Stefan

Stefan & Amira from Cagayan, Philippines → North Holland, Netherlands

I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude and appreciation to teacher Bert (Bert DutchTeacher, Nederlands Leren in Manila) for teaching me Dutch and EVERYTHING that I need to learn for my Civic Integration Exam. Before, I was a total beginner in Dutch. I didn't know any Dutch words. And so my husband and I decided to take teacher Bert's Dutch course especially because of his HIGH Passing Rate. Taking his Dutch course did not only give me the knowledge to speak, understand, and write Dutch, it also helped me pass my Civic Integration Exam in FLYING COLORS! When I took the exam I got a PERFECT SCORE on ALL three parts. Again, this wouldn't be possible without teacher Bert's help. To teacher Bert: Thank you very much for the skills and knowledge that you imparted on us. I wish you more students and more success in the future. Het was inderdaad een fijne ervaring! Hartelijk bedankt.

Leah from Bohol, Philippines → South Holland, Netherlands

Cathleen heeft bij Bert Dutch Teacher heel goed les gehad. En is nu ook geslaagd in Nederland! Bert geeft een hele goede en rustige uitleg. Echt een aanrader!! Dus als je een leraar Nederlands zoekt in de Filipijnen... Bert Dutch Teacher!!

~Peter~

Teacher Bert has a method of teaching that every student will not be difficult in understanding. Which helps a lot, then eventually You as a student will enhance your knowledge in Nederlands Taal. Good foundation of Nederlands Taal must be first, which I've learned from the class of teacher Bert. And now, I am done with Inburgeringsexamen within 2 years I stayed in Nederland. 😊😊😊

​Goede leraar. I learn a lot, thank you so much Bert.

​

Jocelyn from Bohol, Philippines

Ik heb een zeer goede ervaring met Bert zijn werkwijze om de Nederlandse taal te onderwijzen aan anderstaligen zoals de Filipijnen. Mijn toenmalige vriendin leerde het op korte tijd en had al snel haar oorkonde verdiend. Met medehulp van Bert, die we ook persoonlijk hadden bezocht en ook bedankt, wisten we dat hij de BESTE KEUZE was om jullie Nederlandse en Belgische kandidaten te doen slagen. Veel succes iedereen en hopelijk mogen we jullie ooit eens aanspreken in onze moedertaal.

​The best Dutch teacher in the Philippines!👍He is doing his best for all his students.

Getelyn from Cagayan, Philippines → Limburg, Netherlands

Hello sir Bert, I would like to thank u for motivating me.Your teaching method was a big help for my exam. I took the exam yesterday in a bad condition, I thought I couldn't make it. The staff at the embassy told me if I would like to continue or not... it really shows how bad i felt. Despite of everything I managed until the 3rd part of the exam. The result came after 2 hours of waiting: I got the score of 100- 48- 31. You are the best teacher! Without your teaching method I couldn't make it. DANK U WEL.

A FEW YEARS LATER:

Best teacher ever. I’ve learned a lot from u sir Bert. I’ve got a high score not only in the Phil but also here in the Netherlands and I owe it from u :)))

​

Judy from Antique, Philippines → Friesland, Netherlands

Thank you for the help, I passed the exam because you're a good teacher, I can't imagine you teach me for 1 week and I did it. What you advice to do on exam to hear good and pronouce properly and understand the question, it was really help. Keep up the good work, I am proud of you teacher Bert, thank you again..xxx

De beste leraar houdt orde, geeft goed les, kent je naam, weet zijn prioriteiten te stellen, begrijpt. Bedankt dat je mijn mentor was. Ik ben nu in Nederland om mijn leven met mijn man te beginnen.

​

Phoebe from NCR, Philippines → North Holland, Netherlands

The lesson was very helpful for those who want to be familiar with the Dutch language. It's also helpful that our teacher tries to make us realize our weaknesses and help us to improve it. Thank you very much!

​

Evelyn from Philippines → South Holland, Netherlands

Yes, I learned a lot from this course. It's not easy to learn but step by step I learned many things in Dutch. And I can speak a little bit Dutch and I can understand a little bit. Now, I'm so thankful of this course because many things I know and I learned a lot... Thank you very much for everything in this course. And specially to my teacher I'm very thankful for everything.

The lessons are very interesting!

​

Jon-Jon from Cavite, Philippines → North Holland, Netherlands

In my case, It was like this. Working & finding the perfect shift for language lesson is not easy. Either, I have to give up some days at work which is not possible... unless I render a resignation. Very lucky! I found him online (Dutch Teacher) where options are available for people like me. So, I opted 30 hours course & found it very interesting, fun & most of it is learning. He's excellency in teaching "Dutch language" helped us & guide us, from the very basic, important words, sentence construction & most of it is the pronunciation. It was fun & I enjoyed the training so much. I will for sure recommend him. Meneer Bert, Hartelijk bedankt voor de cursus!

Hallo Bert, wij geven je 5 sterren omdat je Ruth uitstekend voorbereid hebt op haar inburgeringsexamen Nederlands en er ook voor gezorgd hebt dat Ruth vlakbij jouw leslokaal een kamer kon huren. Je hebt toen in alles met ons meegedacht en geholpen. Groetjes van ons en tot ziens op Independence Day waar je elk jaar in Nederland naartoe komt om je werk te promoten en heel veel blije Filipino's je bezoeken

​

Ad & Ruth from Zamboanga del Sur, Philippines → South Holland, Netherlands

Dear teacher Bert, thanks to your good efforts I have passed the integration exam in Manila first time :-) I've been in the Netherlands for 3 months now and I expect to start next level integration course soon! Hartstikke bedankt :-)

​

Angie from Western Samar, Philippines → Friesland, Netherlands

Before I went to Bert's course, I thought I already had enough Dutch to be able to pass the Integration exam. I did self study anyway and also went to a language school in Ortigas. But as soon as I had gotten to his class, then I have realized, I'm not really ready yet to take the exam and (actually) there are lot more things I needed to learn. I really appreciate Bert's methodology of teaching. He really is a professional teacher.The way he explains to us our lessons are clear enough to understand. Also the materials he has given us are very helpful in learning and understanding Dutch. One thing more that I do really appreciate from him is that, he talks to us in Dutch of which my former teacher did not do on the school I previously went to. Dutch is not all about learning the language in the head, it has to be Spoken! I only did not pass the exam but I did it with ‘flying colors’. I know it wont be possible if I did not took Bert’s class. Hartelijk Bedankt Meneer Bert. Ik ben een trotse student van jou! Sheryl

Sheryl from Cagayan, Philippines → Utrecht, Netherlands

With our plans to settle in Netherlands with my fiancé and the requirements in Dutch Embassy to take the civic integration examination, we tried to look for a good Dutch teacher here in Manila. Thank God I found Mr. Bert. I took the lesson for two months. We all know that Dutch language is very hard. but Mr. Bert made it so easy for us and at the same time interesting and fun. I can say that is a very excellent teacher. He taught us how to speak and write good Dutch. Doing the exercises are really fun and interesting and he gave us the technique on how to pass the basic civic integration exam. My teacher didn't just teach us on how to pass the exam but he made sure that we can use the language as our weapon to live when we are already in Netherlands. As the days goes by I learned a lot from him from right pronunciation to constructing sentences. Until I finished the course and with confidence and strong will to pass, I took the exam, And yes i passed the exam in just 1 take. I am very thankful to Mr. Bert my teacher. But it will not stop there I know I am just starting, I still keep on reading and practicing Dutch. "Hartelijk dank meneer Bert! omdat u Nederlandse is zo makkelijk te leren."

​

John from South Cotabato, Philippines → North Holland, Netherlands

Mr. Bert's Course Initiation of Dutch language had been a very helpful guide on me now that I am living here in Belgium. Initially, I tried to learn the language by myself with cd's and book references but it wasn't good enough and I was always doubting on the correct pronunciation. Thus, I decided to enroll in his class and was very glad to have found Mr. Bert. I am completely satisfied with his quality of method, instruction and professionalism. He customizes the lesson with interactive topics and his positive approach instilled the confidence to really start talking. I would personally recommend Mr. Bert for his excellent quality of service. Hartelijk bedankt voor de cursus, Mr. Bert!
