Dutch (NT2) - Intensive Course for the Dutch State Exam
Our intensive course for the NT2 State Exam consists of three consecutive courses in one year: a course for beginners, intermediate level students, and advanced level students. These courses prepare you for the NT2 State Exam, program II within a year.
-
NT2: Beginners (intensive course)
This course allows you to rapidly acquire a solid basis of everyday Dutch based on texts from the Delft method that you will go through step-by-step. Grammar is also explained based on these texts. This allows you to develop a feel for the language instead of only knowledge of the grammar rules.
-
Dutch (NT2) as a Second Language
You can choose from a wide range of courses. The "intensive program" trains you to reach the level of the Dutch NT2 State Exam, within a year. We offer in-depth courses after the State Exam to perfect your Dutch, or you can learn how to survive from day to day with our Social Dutch courses.
-
Social Dutch
These courses are intended for highly educated expats and international students who speak little or no Dutch.
-
NT2: Upper-Intermediate Dutch (intensive course)
During this course, you work from the B1 level to the B2 level. Using the book Nederlands op Niveau, you will work with texts, listening fragments, and do vocabulary and grammar exercises.
