FAQs

We focus on confidence speaking.
If you have never studied Dutch before or feel like you struggle to speak basic phrases then we recommend our A1 course.
If you know some Dutch and are able to say common phrases then we recommend our A1.5 course.
If you understand a lot of Dutch but aren’t confident speaking then we recommend our A2 course.
If you are confident having a basic chat (2 - 4 min) then we recommend our A2.5 course.
If you can have longer chats (4 - 10 min) then you are ready for our B1 course
If you still have questions then give us a call —we're happy to help you find the perfect fit.
