I’m very satisfied with Lindsey. The content and quality are good, and the contact is always very pleasant, easy, and helpful. We’re still busy with the lessons and we’re going to restart now that I’m back from holiday. Overall, I’ve had a really good experience.

I took Lindsey's English course in Amsterdam and I thought she was great. She was well prepared, all the homework, papers, and the resources were really good, and I learned a lot of new things from her that I had never learned before. It was understandable, interactive and instructive, and you can clearly see that she has experience in teaching in universities. She was very professional, and I definitely recommend her.

I’m so happy with Lindsey as my English teacher. She is nice, very responsible, and very professional, and every time she was very patient with my English and helped me a lot with everything, even the details. Before, I tried several teachers from different countries, but I feel lucky to study with her and I kept studying with her for a long time because the price felt good. She’s a really nice person, and I already introduced her to my friend too.
Real price ranges from the jobs our vetted english teachers actually do. Updated July 2026
How much do English summer camps for kids cost in Amsterdam?
We could not find reliable published prices for English summer camps in Amsterdam, so treat any number you are quoted as a starting point and ask for the full week price in writing. Camps vary enormously on hours per day, whether lunch is included, and whether it is really childcare in English or actual teaching. If you mainly want your child to keep their English going over the holidays, a block of tutoring is much easier to price, at €20 to €35 an hour. Ask about group size as well, because that is what decides how much your child actually gets to speak.
How much do English lessons at your home cost in Amsterdam?
If you want the tutor to come to you, expect €25 to €45 an hour across the Netherlands and €30 to €60 in Amsterdam. Travel time is what you are paying for, and it adds roughly €10 an hour compared with the same lesson online. Packages help: from 40 hours booked, home rates start around €25.50 an hour against €36.50 for a one off visit. For a child who is already tired after school, having someone arrive at the door is often worth the difference.
How much do lessons at the teacher's place cost in Amsterdam?
Going to the tutor keeps you in the normal in person range, so €20 to €35 an hour in the Netherlands and €30 to €60 in Amsterdam. Nobody is charging you for the journey, so it usually lands at the lower end of what a home visit costs. A single lesson runs about €36.50, while 40 hours or more booked together brings it to roughly €25.50. Check where the lessons actually happen before you book, since some tutors teach from their own front room and others rent a room in the centre.
How much do English group classes cost in Amsterdam?
A group class costs far less per hour than one to one, and it is the normal route for an adult who wants to work through a whole level. Evening and distance courses from Dutch providers run €219 to €379 for the full course, and classroom courses at a school start around €380 before VAT. If you only need a refresher, short self study courses go from €12 to about €118. A week at one of Amsterdam's own language schools is a different tier again, starting near €681.
How much does an intensive English course cost in Amsterdam?
Intensive means a lot of hours in a short block, so you are quoted per course rather than per hour. A week at one of Amsterdam's language schools starts around €681. Shorter formats cost less: an eight day Academic English course is about €384.50 all in, and a crash course in business communication is €250. If you would rather go intensive with one tutor, budget €30 to €60 an hour and agree the total number of hours before you start.
How much do online English lessons cost in Amsterdam?
Online is the cheapest way to book a tutor, mostly because nobody is paying for travel. Rates start at €19.50 an hour inside a package, and €27 an hour is a fair middle figure once booking fees are counted in. That is roughly €10 an hour less than having the same tutor come to your door. If you want structured practice without a live teacher at all, self study courses sit between €49 and €335.
How much do private English lessons cost in Amsterdam?
Most private English tutors in the Netherlands charge €20 to €35 an hour, and Amsterdam sits at the top of that, closer to €30 to €60. What you pay depends mostly on who is teaching: a student tutor is around €20 an hour, while a teacher with a teaching degree asks €35 or more. Booking a block brings the hourly rate down a lot, so a one off lesson at €36.50 can drop to €25.50 inside a package. Ask about registration or matching fees too, because some agencies add €35 on top.
How much does business English cost in Amsterdam?
Business English comes in two shapes and they are priced differently. A ready made course, say business correspondence or business communication, costs €234 to €279, with a crash course around €250 and short online modules from €17. In company training and one to one coaching are quoted per hour instead, and because an employer wants an experienced teacher you are at the top of the range, €35 an hour and up, or €30 to €60 in Amsterdam. Ask whether materials and a level test are included, because that is where two quotes usually differ.
How much does English conversation practice cost in Amsterdam?
Conversation hours are the cheapest way to work on spoken English, because there is no course to buy behind them. Online you will pay €19.50 to €27 an hour, and around €30 to €60 if you meet someone face to face in Amsterdam. A student tutor at about €20 an hour is often plenty here, since what you mainly need is someone patient to talk with. Roughly 77 percent of tutors on one Dutch booking site give the first half hour free, so try two or three before you commit.
How much does English exam preparation cost in Amsterdam?
Keep two costs apart here, because they are billed by different people. The exam itself is fixed: IELTS at the Amsterdam test centre is €283, the UKVI version is €305, and retaking a single section is €178. Preparation is separate, and a 20 to 40 hour course runs about €140 to €295, with the wider market stretching from €94 up past €1,700. If you would rather have one to one coaching, that is charged by the hour at the usual Amsterdam rate of €30 to €60.
