After a few months working with Simone, I feel more confident about my Dutch language skills and pronunciation.

I really enjoyed the Dutch lessons with Linda. She is a very patient, friendly, and supportive teacher.

My teacher is Charonie, and she makes the class feel easy, always checks in if we understand the material, explains everything very well and with lots of patience.

My teacher is Ingrid who is super cool and helps me a lot in progressing with my Dutch. She sends me tailored homework every week and leaves me super comfortable with talking Dutch.

Dear international in the Netherlands,

Do you freeze at the counter and switch to English before you have even tried?

Are you tired of people answering you in English the moment your accent slips?

Do you build the sentence in your head, and lose the moment while you do it?

Have you tried an app, and found it gave you words but never a conversation?

You are not bad at languages. You have had no safe place to practise speaking.

Online or in a classroom

Thinking about a real life classroom instead?

A lot of our students sat in one first. Here is what usually sends them our way.

A real life classroom group
Everyone is booked into a level, but people do not assess their own level accurately. You end up ahead of the room or behind it.
When the levels do not match, the room slips into English. The exact thing you joined to get away from.
The teacher is split between ten people, so your mistakes and your pronunciation go uncorrected.
One fixed evening, in one fixed place. Miss it and it is gone.
One on one, online, with us
The level is yours by definition. Every minute goes on what you cannot do yet.
You speak Dutch for the full 60 minutes, because there is nobody to hide behind.
Your teacher hears every mistake and fixes your pronunciation as you make it.
Our teachers work from all over, so there is far more choice of time, daytime or evening.

People join a real life classroom to have conversations in Dutch. What tends to happen is a room of mixed levels talking to each other in English. One on one, the conversation is the lesson, and it is in Dutch from the first minute.

Still set on a real life classroom? Spend 20 minutes before you decide. Nothing to pay, no payment details, nothing to sign, and you do not have to decide anything on the call. Tell us you are leaning towards in person and we will be straight about whether one on one online would get you there faster. If it would not, we will say so.
How it works

Four steps from first call to first lesson

Nothing is paid until you have met your teacher.

1 Book your free intro call

Twenty minutes, online. We send a WhatsApp reminder so it does not slip. We talk through your level, your goals and when in the week you can study.

2 We match you with your teacher

A person picks your teacher, based on your level, your availability and how you learn. Then we build a strategy with them for you specifically.

3 Meet your teacher, still free

Your teacher reaches out on WhatsApp for a fifteen minute chat. This is a meet, not a lesson, so you see how they work before you decide anything.

4 Choose a package and start

You pick your package, we send the invoice and open your study material. Your employer can be invoiced directly if they are paying.

That is the whole process. Step one takes 20 minutes.

Nothing to pay until you have met your teacher. Evening slots fill up first.
Why this is not a cheaper tutor

A human runs your learning, start to finish

Most schools sell you a method and a slot. We build a strategy around you, pick the teacher who fits, and come back at lesson five to check it is working.

Before lesson one A strategy designed for you, not one method pushed onto every student

We do not run a fixed method. After your intro call we choose the approach with your teacher, around your goals, your level and the way you actually learn.

At lesson five A dedicated student concierge checks the plan is working, so progress never quietly stalls

We come back to you, ask what is working, and adjust the strategy, the focus or the teacher if something is not landing. Nobody drifts through a package.

Throughout No 30 to 50 euro textbook, your material is chosen for you and already in the price

No book to buy and no hunting for the right workbook. All study material is included in every package, and we pick it to fit your level and your goals.

We work that out on the call, before you pay anything
Meet the teachers

You get matched to one teacher who fits how you learn

Not whoever is free. On your intro call we go through your level, your goals and your schedule, then pick the teacher who fits.

The teacher swap Not the right fit after five lessons? You change teacher, no questions asked.

Your dedicated student concierge asks you directly at lesson five. If the match is wrong we move you to another teacher and carry your package and your material across. You never have to have the awkward conversation yourself.

An LGBTQ+ friendly school. Everyone is welcome here.
Three reasons students start

Conversation, citizenship, or your career

Speaking in daily life

Order, chat with the neighbours, hold your own at work. This is where most students start, and it is the part textbooks never fix.

Inburgeringsexamen

The official integration exam on the road to Dutch citizenship. We prepare you for it, with all study material included.

NT2 Staatsexamen

The state exam employers recognise, at Programma I and Programma II level. Often required for the job, always good on a CV.

Both are official Dutch state exams, and our students consistently pass them. Not sure which one you need? We work that out on the free intro call before you pay for anything.

Package pricing

The more you book, the less each lesson costs

Most students see a clear difference in how they speak within 20 lessons, which is why Intensive is the one most people choose.

Frequently asked questions

Everything people ask before they book

No. All study material is included in every package, and we choose it to fit your level and your goals. A textbook on its own would cost you 30 to 50 euro before you even started.

The Dutch Conversation Meetup, free, every week

A live session on Zoom, open to anyone. We put you in a pair with another learner, a teacher gives you something to work on, and you practise it out loud. No cost, nothing to buy, no lesson to sit through first.

Join the WhatsApp group Free, every week.
1Join the WhatsApp group. That is the whole sign up.
2We post the Zoom link in the group each week.
3Turn up, get paired with someone, speak Dutch out loud.

The meetup is group practice. Lessons are personal progress with a teacher matched to you. Plenty of people do both.

Meet the person who will match you with your teacher
