About Patrick
I was born in the Dutch speaking half of Belgium, and grew up in the charming town of Bruges. I learnt English as a child watching the BBC and listening to pirate radios like Caroline, and eventually I obtained a BA in translation Dutch-English-French.
My love for the Dutch language led me to a professional career as a journalist and editor. My love for the English language came in handy when I moved to the UK and started a business with my British partner.
I started teaching Dutch online during the pandemic, and I absolutely love it, I love helping people learn a new language from scratch.

I’ve been learning Dutch with Patrick for several months now, and the difference compared to my previous experiences with language tutors has been remarkable.
Patrick's lessons are engaging, well-structured, and tailored to my individual pace. He knows exactly when to challenge me and when to slow down and explain things in a way that really clicks. As a result, I’ve gained far more confidence and knowledge than I ever expected.
What really sets Patrick apart is his patience, encouragement, and genuine enthusiasm for teaching. Every lesson feels positive and productive, and I always come away feeling motivated to keep improving.
If you’re considering learning Dutch I would highly recommend Patrick. He’s an exceptional tutor who makes the learning process both effective and enjoyable.I have been one of Patrick's Dutch language students and worked with him through regular lessons over an extended period.
Patrick is exactly the kind of teacher you hope to find when learning a new language. He is knowledgeable, patient, encouraging, and genuinely invested in his students’ progress. He has a remarkable ability to make learning feel approachable, even when tackling the more challenging aspects of Dutch grammar and pronunciation. His lessons are well-structured, engaging, and tailored to the individual, which creates a supportive environment where students feel comfortable making mistakes and learning from them.
Patrick adapts his lessons to real-life situations and interests. Rather than simply teaching from a textbook, he finds practical ways to help build confidence using Dutch in everyday conversations. His encouragement and positive attitude made a significant difference, particularly on days when the language felt overwhelming. He always knew how to explain concepts in a way that suddenly made them click.
I wholeheartedly recommend Patrick to other Superprof members because he combines expertise with genuine care for his students.Patrick has been tutoring me dutch for a number of months now. I have done trial lessons with other Dutch tutors in the past and didn’t really have much luck and gave up learning altogether at the time.
Since having lessons with Patrick, I have learnt so much at a pace that is right for me. Patrick has a great way of teaching and has mastered the balance of pushing me enough while still taking the time to go over bits I struggle with.
To anyone thinking about learning a new language and wanting a tutor - I cannot recommend Patrick enough.
His teaching style, kindness and encouragement are top notch!View more recommendations
