Beginners 1, 0 > A1 (intensive)

In this course you will learn the basics of the Dutch language in an enjoyable and practical way. Topics from everyday life are the focus. You will learn everyday words, simple expressions and basic phrases. At the end of the course you will be able to, for example, tell something about yourself, buy an item in a shop, ask for directions and look for a place to live.

All lessons are practical. You will learn all aspects of the Dutch language, such as vocabulary, reading, spelling, pronunciation and grammar, but the emphasis is mainly on speaking. This way, you can immediately put into practice what you have learnt.

This course is at a faster pace than the basic course. It is suitable for people who have already learnt a second language and have experience of independent learning.
