Group CoursesEvery trimester we start new group courses.
Groups are small: no more than 8 persons, all of the same level and working towards the same goals. Because of the size of the group and the way we work, there is lots of personal attention and eye for your progress. These are the group courses we offer:
My-kid-and-me Dutch Play Course
Bring Your Baby Time: 16h - 17.30h Schedule: 8 classes of 1,5 hours each (12 hours total) Price: € 270,- per couple (parent+child) Participants: 5 adult + 5 children age 4-9 Homework: NO HOMEWORK! We use Rubio Dutch Instructional videos to prepare for next weeks class. For vocab, we use a free smartphone app. The My-Kid-And-Me Play Course is focused on playfully practising Dutch together with your child. The course is aimed to parents with already a basic understanding of Dutch, enough to manage simple games and role play. Children on the other hand, should not be too fluent yet: the idea is to learn together. Children from international schools who would like to boost their Dutch, or children just starting a Dutch primary school would be the ideal students for this course. There will be basic grammar explanation for the parents through short online instruction videos as a way of preparing for each class. In class, we'll explain simple rules whenever it turns out useful: for example to explain why you say something a certain way and not the other. Of course classroom explanation will be adjusted to level and age. Mostly though, we'll learn by doing. Word games, board games, role play, imagination... A little like a playgroup for parents and kids. They idea is to have fun together and as a side effect, learn Dutch! For every friend you bring along, you receive a discount on the course fee. If you are not sure whether your Dutch is advanced enough for this course, let me know and I'll send you a short level test.
