About me
Having grown up in the Nelson region as the daughter of Dutch immigrants, I was interested in language acquisition early on in my teaching career. As a result, I specialized in teaching second language learners, which involved working with a wide range of learners in Japan, China and New Zealand . Recently I relocated back to NZ, and have been enjoying the stunning environment and cultural diversity that is now common in my hometown.
