About me
I am an international student: I was born and raised in the Netherlands. Since English is my second language, I might make mistakes in grammar or pronunciation sometimes. If that happens, please correct me!
Name Pronunciation
The pronunciation of my first name is pretty straightforward: SOH-phie. My last name is a bit more difficult: vahn HOW-uh-ning-uh. The 'ng' sound does not exist in the English language, but I can probably describe it as follows: it sounds like the 'ng' in orange right up until the 'dzje' sound of the g in orange. If this explanation does not work for you, think of it as a less pronounced g (the g as in goat).
