Why a group course?


You learn to speak by speaking, alongside people in the same boat. Nobody's fluent, everybody's trying, and that turns out to be the easiest place to find your voice. The group becomes your practice ground week after week. And more often than not, it's where you ge to meet your first Dutch-speaking friends. 

This is for you if:


  • You get to practise with a whole room of people, not just one.
  • You're motivated by other people around you learning the same thing.
  • You want to build a Dutch-speaking circle, not just take a course.

Frequently asked questions


Take our free level test. It takes 5-15 minutes, depending on your level, and gives you a clear picture of where you stand. Prefer to talk it through? Book a call with Gabi and she'll help you work it out.

It happens, and it's easily fixed. If you feel you're not in the right group, talk to us. You won't be stuck somewhere you don't belong.

Often, yes. If a group has only had a lesson or two and there's still room, you can usually hop in and catch up. Give us a call to talk it through.
