I currently teach at the University of Amsterdam, Department of Dutch Linguistics and have been involved in four undergraduate programs in recent years: Dutch Language and Culture, Linguistics, Amsterdam University College, and the brand-new interdisciplinary program Cognition, Language and Communication, of which I also became program director (programmaleider) in January 2020. I obtained my BKO/University Teaching Qualification in 2017.
See courses below, click for classes for high school students and their teachers, ask about a short class for elementary school kids, or check Facebook (Dutch or CLC) to see what (else) we’re up to. Have you seen the Linguistics webinar? What about the UvA’s week van het brein?
Current or prospective students can click to find schedules, course descriptions, the student A–Z or Canvas. Tutor students who wish to make an appointment can do so by e-mail.
