Dutch for Expats
Нидерланды
Добавлен 18 авг 2022
Hi! My name is Vinod, I am a Dutch native and I love teaching the language to people who need it for their daily work and life. This channel is especially designed for people who work in The Netherlands and need to understand what their peers are saying and know what to say back! That's why many examples from the workplace are used in my lessons. I have been working in international business most of my life, and I know that a lot of expats struggle with the language, even after many years.
