    • separable verbs in any kind of sentence

Ik vond het erg leuk en nuttig. Het beste was jij als leraar (je spreekt heel duidelijk en je geeft de lessen een heel positieve toon!) en de gezellige sfeer met de andere deelnemers. Ik heb zeker veel geleerd.

Deze cursus is erg intensief! Hij behandelt de basisgrammatica, maar je moet wel veel tijd besteden aan de voorbereiding op de les. Gelukkig duurt elke les 1,5 uur, dus je hebt genoeg tijd om vragen te stellen. Het is fijn dat we met voorbeelden oefenen.

Start your day in Dutch: Conversation A2 (short course)
Ik vond de cursus erg leuk, de onderwerpen waren interessant en ik heb nu het gevoel dat ik beter kan spreken. De groepsgrootte was ideaal en de deelnemers waren erg aardig. Ik denk dat ze een klein voordeel hadden, omdat ze in Nederland leven en/of werken of een Nederlandse partner hebben. Maar het is goed als ik mijn best moet doen!
