Ready to communicate in the Netherlands?

Welcome to the Netherlands where people often speak good English, but love it when you try to learn Dutch. And we're not only talking about the speaking language, but also learning about our customs, our ‘hard’ sense of humor and funny food. In short: the Dutch culture.

If you want to get a grip on your daily Dutch situations and conversations, come and join our (semi) intensive trainings.
