Put it into practice A2 Als je op zoek bent naar een cursus met een beetje meer structuur dan een conversatie cursus dan is deze cursus voor jou. Ida combineert interessante onderwerpen met nuttige grammatica constructies in deze "A2 Put it into practice."

Put it into practice A2 Dit was een geweldige cursus. Voor degenen onder ons die wilden bekijken wat we hebben geleerd in de A2 Grammar Boost, maar nog niet door wilden gaan naar B1 Grammar Boost, dit was de perfecte tussenoplossing. Ik zou deze cursus zeker nog een keer aanbieden aan iedereen die wat meer tijd wil nemen om te oefenen wat ze al hebben geleerd......en op een leuke manier!

Put it into practice A2 This is the best Dutch language course I have taken, and I wish I had found it sooner rather than having wasted my money elsewhere. Ida knows her stuff and never makes you feel nervous about participating during the lessons. Her explanations are clear and timely. I will be signing up for another course after the Summer Holidays.

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!

Grammar Boost B1Ik probeer nu al zes jaar Nederlands te leren en heb veel leraren gehad, maar weinigen waren zo geduldig en begripvol. Ik vond je aanpak, je directe werk met ons en het modelleren van zinnen met ons heel nuttig. Je kunt erop rekenen dat ik samen met jou Nederlands blijf leren!

Frequently asked questions
How do the lessons work?
+Each day we have a lesson (you will see it depending on the group you join) you will receive a Zoom link 30 mins before the lesson. When you click the link you will join a zoom call with your teacher and colleagues to have your lesson!Can I pay by transfer?
+Yes. Just select the group you want and click the write an email to join button and we will give you more details!Is it possible to receive an invoice?
+Yes. We are a registered Dutch business and provide invoices.Can you tell me a bit more about yourself?
+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.
