As a language coach, you'll be paired with a refugee. You'll spend approximately two hours a week practicing Dutch together.

Job description

Is language really your thing? Do you have limited time but still want to help refugees? Are you curious and eager to experience a different culture yourself? Become a language coach!

As a language coach, we'll pair you with a refugee. For about two hours a week, you'll work together to practice Dutch in a practical way. This could be at home, at the library, or even in a store while grocery shopping. This not only improves your Dutch but also increases your self-reliance. Do you enjoy the challenge of approaching this creatively? Then this is perfect for you!


This is what you get

  • A stimulating work environment with room for your own development.
  • Plenty of opportunities to learn more about other cultures.
  • Pleasant team under the guidance of a professional.
  • Extensive induction program and the opportunity to also take various courses.
  • Travel expenses reimbursement.


What do you need to become a language coach?

As a language coach, you must be able to work independently. You also need a certain degree of flexibility and patience. Respectful interaction with cultural differences is a given. Ideally, you should be available for at least two hours per week for at least one year. We require a Certificate of Good Conduct from all our employees.
