About the beginners class

GROUP CLASSES: A1 + A2
This course will take you from total beginner to A2 level in 9 weeks. I conduct these classes in a small group, so that there is lots of time for speaking and direct feedback from the teacher. Writing tasks will be part of the homework, while the lessons itself focus on speaking, listening, building correct sentences with grammar explanation and practice of real life situations. This is an intensive course, which covers one chapter each lesson and requires commitment from the student to do homework and prepare for each class, in order to get the full benefit of this class. Classes are held twice a week, on Saturday mornings and Wednesday evenings. At the moment the course is carried out using Zoom (secured connection with password). The group size is small (about 4 to 5 people) in order to achieve good results. Each course covers levels A1 + A2. Starting date: 14th of October 2020 (FULL), 9th of January 2021 (spots available) Total cost for two levels €500. Students will also be responsible for purchasing course workbook, available here. The course can be paid in two instalments (please inform me during registration if required). **This course is available for a small number of students only in order obtain good progress in a short amount of time. If you are interested in joining in on the next class, please contact me for more info. You can also register directly with the link below. COVID-19: Until further notice all lessons will be conducted online to ensure continuation of lessons and safety of participants. |

GROUP CLASSES: B1 LEVEL
|
NEW STARTING DATE: October 17, 2020 (FULL)
The level B1 course is a great follow-up after you have finished the beginners course. In this course you will go from beginner to intermediate level, where you will be able to use Dutch in many situations. I really recommend this course as this is the level where you will start to feel more confident using the Dutch language. Your Dutch will improve by focusing on speaking during our classes and by making homework that covers other skills like reading and writing. New grammar will be explained in a practical way and used with exercises immediately. This is the opportunity to build on what you have already learned and increase your level of the Dutch language, expand your vocabulary and gain confidence. |
