"At Home Abroad" – Dutch for Starters

Do you want to learn Dutch in a small setting with a personal touch?
Then "At Home Abroad" could be just the thing for you!

ACCESS is offering Dutch courses for beginners as we believe that knowing some Dutch will help you feel at home in The Netherlands and will open doors to the Dutch culture.

“Dutch for Starters” is an Intensive Four Week Course - for people who want to make a running start with learning Dutch.
Per week there are nine hours of tuition – on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday mornings.
Besides, you are expected to prepare each class on the computer at home, with the help of the CD-Rom that goes with the course book. On average this will take another twelve hours per week. In short: it’s a course for people who can invest a fair amount of time in a concentrated period.

At the end of the course you will be able to have short conversations on everyday subjects like shopping, food, housing, travelling, going out, health, relationships and to ask for directions, make appointments, give your opinion, and make inquiries at the municipality. Simple writing assignments are also part of the programme.

Learning Dutch with “At Home Abroad” means:
•  Serious learning in a relaxed and sociable environment

•  90% of the lessons in Dutch only
