Structured course A1/A2I found the structured group lesson A1/A2 course with Ida very helpful and clearly more personalized than large class lessons I took elsewhere. I have been able to improve my Dutch thanks to the long conversation time that each participant had, and Ida was great as a teacher. In the future, I would definitely consider taking courses for further levels and also recommend my friends to take courses from her!

Conversatiecursus A2De A2 cursus met Ida was fantastisch en bracht me verder na een jaar van pure theorie. De groep was helemaal super en internationaal. Ik kan deze cursus zonder voorbehoud aanbevelen. Ik wens Ida voortdurende succes en al het beste.

Conversation course A2I love the different themes and the follow-up questions. Other student's answers gave me a different perspective of the world. Hence; I learned not only some Dutch but also about other countries & cultures; which is fun!

Structured course A1/A2The twelve-week course was extremely helpful. Ida creates an encouraging atmosphere and is a patient teacher. The lessons had a balance between grammar from the text book and free conversation and by the end of the course we were able to be more spontaneous with this. I now feel much more confident about speaking in Dutch and may well go back to The Dutch Online Academy for more tuition in the future.'

Conversation course A2Ik vind deze cursus zo leuk dat ik hem nu vier keer heb gevolgd. Elke week bespreken we een interessant onderwerp en Ida maakt de klas leuk, interessant en informatief. We leren niet alleen over een verscheidenheid aan Nederlandse dingen, we leren ook over elkaar terwijl iedereen bijdraagt aan het gesprek. Ik raad deze leuke cursus zeker aan!

+I am a professional Dutch teacher, living in Amsterdam. I used to teach Dutch at a school in the Netherlands, but I moved to Spain in 2017 (and back to Amsterdam in 2020), which made me explore the possibilities to teach Dutch offline and online. I have given over 2500 online Dutch lessons. I am still learning Spanish myself and I know the process is long and difficult at times, but I enjoy the little moments of success. The feeling that conversations get more and more natural is really rewarding. In my free time I enjoy running, reading, spending time with family and friends and cooking (+ eating ;).I don't know what I need to work on. Is that a problem?
+Absolutely not. In private lessons I will quickly get an idea of your needs and will share my opinion with you, giving you clear tips to get your Dutch to the next level. In conversation lessons, you will get lots of opportunities to practice your speaking skills. In the structured group lessons I will make sure every student gets the support he or she needs and I will give you personal feedback outside the lessons too.I want to combine our lessons with self study, is that possible?
+Of course. Especially private lessons and structured group lessons go well with self study. Homework is included in packages and it will be completely tailored to your needs. In the structured group lessons, we will work with a book. Certain exercises are perfect for self-study. I will indicate which ones and give feedback and support, also outside the lessons.I am not sure about my level. What do I do?
+If you have followed Dutch courses before, you can start where you left off. So if you, for example, passed an A2 exam, you can move on working from A2 to B1. You can always send an email if you are in doubt. I will then help you decide which course fits you best. For private lessons, your level doesn’t matter. I will always tailor the material to your needs, whether you are a beginner or working towards C1.Do you have any other doubt?
+Do not hesitate in contacting us in the bottom link at this page to write us an email with whatever doubt you may have, we will be delighted to respond as fast as we can.
