Hello, I am Anneke and in my career as a language coach I have helped thousands of people improve their language skills. In 2010, I founded DNA Languages, since I had my own ideas about how people could make the step from insecure to successful language users.
As a 5-year-old girl, I moved from the north of the country to the south. Everyone there spoke a dialect! I didn’t understand any of it and felt like an outsider. I felt very strongly myself how annoying it is to be different and out of the group, if you don’t master the language.
That is where my mission was born: to help people feel confident in a language that is not theirs. Language is so important, we use it all the time, for everything we do. So when you master the language, it helps you live the life you want. It helps you connect with people, integrate and become part of the community.
To make sure people gain confidence, we created a special program. We believe that to gain self-confidence, our clients need to experience successes while practicing the language. Therefore, we create a safe environment, and build a warm relationship with them, and provide the conditions necessary for learning.
By making the training fit well with their work and personal lives, they achieve amazing results. Our 4-step program is a great asset: because we have a long “aftercare” process, we guarantee long-term results.
