“Marion was an amazing teacher. She is knowledgeable not only of the Dutch language but also of Dutch culture and contemporary Dutch colloquialisms.”
“Marion was wonderful! The content was very approachable, she made learning fun, and I feel I got some lasting and useful knowledge out of it. I did this more as an activity and I am glad I did.”
