Our courses

Our secret to effective teaching and student success begins with our small class size. Our class size ranges from six to fourteen participants, which enable teachers to maximize their attention on the individual student while guaranteeing them a dynamic learning environment. Courses are conducted in the target language, to give students a possibility to practice the Dutch language and to feel comfortable with using the language outside of Dutch First School.

Our teachers

We selectively recruit qualified teachers, linguists, and language specialists as educators so we can ensure the highest possible standard of instruction. We have an international team with teaching experience in Netherlands as well as other countries. Our main goal is to help you reach your goals and give you the opportunity to learn in an agreeable and friendly atmosphere.
