I took the A1+ course and by the end of that course, I already signed up for the next one. Koen has created a very well structured course that brings results. As I teacher myself, I can clearly see all the hardwork behind the short-enough grammar videos, conversation activities, exercises etc. Koen always provided positive and constructive feedback which gave me confidence in my learning and speaking. I highly recommend him on his professionalism and expert knowledge.

I have done the Nederlands level 4, it has been a very enriching experience in which I have been able to strengthen my level of Dutch in grammar, speaking, writing, reading and listening in a very interactive way. The platform is very easy to understand, it is not boring and it has a lot of information and exercises that really help you to learn.

The online sessions are very entertaining, interactive in which you can learn a lot of vocabulary, practice speaking, listening and meet other people who are at the same level as you, which is great because you will never feel lost.

Personally, I set very high standards for a course and a teacher, but I think Koen did a great job on these courses. From his Level 5 & Self-study course, I learnt a lot and gained many new insights about the Dutch language. His course always offers something new to learn, things you often miss in other courses.

Charlotte F.

I highly recommend Koen as your Dutch teacher. To me, he is more than just a Dutch teacher but a motivational coach as well. His personalised courses are fun yet professional, the content and platform are structured, digestible and user-friendly and last but not least, he is a great pedagogue who is reliable, listens and adapts to each students' particular needs.

Learning a new language can be daunting but Koen breaks down those barriers by really going above and beyond to make sure that your learning experience is as smooth and unique as possible.

Frequently Asked Questions

I’m not sure of my level. What should I do?
You can book an intake call. We get to know each other, you can get a demo of the course and we can see which level is best for you.
What if I miss a class?
The course is designed in such a way that even if you miss a class, you can still catch-up by going over the self-study materials. It's no problem if you miss a class, but I recommend not to join if you will miss more than 2 classes in a course.
Who will be my instructor?
Your instructor will be Koen or one of the experienced and motivational teachers of the team.
Are there any extra costs?
No, there are no extra costs. Your enrollment includes everything you will need for the course
What is the refund policy?
If you can't join the course, you can ask for a postponement or refund until 5 business days before the start of the course.
Is there an exam or certification?
Yes, in the last week of the course you will do an exam which serves as a big recap of the course. You will receive a certificate of completion at the end of the course.
Can I join a course if I have no prior knowledge of Dutch?
Absolutely! Nederlands Level 1 is tailored for complete beginners and people with little knowledge about Dutch.
What do the levels mean?
SociaTaal’s course levels are linked to the Common European Framework of Reference
for languages (CEFR). This framework is a widely recognized framework that provides a
common basis for describing language proficiency levels. A Dutch course for complete
beginners goes from A0 to A1- level. At SociaTaal we simply call it: Nederlands level 1.

A1 | Beginner: Learners at this level can understand and use basic phrases,
introduce themselves, and have simple interactions in familiar contexts.
● A2 | Elementary: Learners can comprehend and communicate in routine situations
that involve simple, direct exchanges of information on familiar topics.
● B1 | Intermediate: At this level, learners can handle a range of everyday situations,
express opinions, and produce coherent texts on familiar subjects.
● B2 | Upper Intermediate: Learners have the ability to understand complex texts,
engage in discussions, and express themselves fluently and spontaneously on
various topics.
● C1 | Advanced: Learners can comprehend and produce advanced texts, engage in
debates, and communicate effectively in professional and academic settings.
● C2 | Proficient: This is the highest level of language proficiency, where learners
can understand virtually everything they hear or read, express themselves
fluently and accurately, and use the language effectively for professional and
academic purposes.
