DUE TO COVID-19 THIS COURSE IS CONVERTED TO ONLINE LESSONS

Check it out here.

Can’t take 2 weeks off for the Summer School? Join our intensive Dutch weekend course!

Intensive courses are more efficient. Compared to a once-a-week-evening course: the rate to at which people drop out, miss classes or skip homework, is significantly lower on an intensive course. When the entire group makes learning Dutch a priority for a short period, the results are significantly better.

But most expats in the Netherlands can’t take off 2 weeks off work to come to the Dutch Summer School, or prefer to use their limited holidays to travel home.

So we are introducing something new: an intensive course over 2 long weekends including Ascension Day and Whit Monday (2 public holidays).

Even though the course is 2 x 4 = 8 days, this will require you to take only 2 days off   work (one of which is usually an obligatory day off at most Dutch companies: the Friday after Ascension day).

Do a full course, but request only 2 days off from work!

Group levels / dates – 2020

Courses are guaranteed. Each level corresponds to an 8-day session.

If you book a room:
– 2×3 nights
– check-in: day 1, check-out: day 4 (of each 4 day session)

Lessons

Our Dutch lessons are interactive, with a strong focus on conversation, given by enthusiastic teachers. Although the teacher will speak Dutch as much as possible from the beginning, we use English to explain things at the lower levels (mainly level 1, 2 and a bit at level 3). At the higher levels (4, R), the teacher speaks only in Dutch. Maximum group size is 16 students.

We use our own book ‘Het Lesboek’ from 0 to A2 (level 1, level 2) and ‘Het Lesboek-2 (level 3, level 4). At level R we work with different materials each time (the course on B1/B2 level is specifically for returning students). Read more here: level descriptions.

Homework & e-learning: doing the homework is essential (be prepared to do at least 3 hours per day). Part of the homework consists of online material. You use this material to prepare for the next day’s lesson: that makes the classroom lesson more efficient and interactive.

Wageningen

Wageningen is a small city in the centre of the Netherlands, located between Utrecht and Arnhem. It has 40,000 inhabitants.

Wageningen is best known for its university. The university has a worldwide reputation in the fields of agriculture, food, life sciences, biotechnology. A significant part of the population works or studies at the WUR (Wageningen University and Research Centre).

Wageningen is also known as the place where World War II ended in the Netherlands, where the Canadian and German generals negotiated the terms of surrender. For this reason, the celebration of Liberation Day (5th of May) always starts in Wageningen.

Wageningen is located on the edge of the Veluwe, which is a forest-rich area (unlike most of the rest of the Netherlands). The Veluwe is a popular holiday destination for Dutch people who want to spend a weekend or a week away.
