Why learn Dutch at Koentact?

If you’d like to fast-track your Dutch progress in Amsterdam, our Dutch Intensive week will pull you through/serve you well, whether you are a complete beginner or are already experienced with the Dutch language. Living in a foreign country can be a challenge, but even knowing just a little of the local language will make your life so much easier! Along with other internationals and expats, our unique Koentact method allows you to totally immerse yourself in the Dutch language, culture, and life for a full week.

1. Learn Dutch in a small group

An intensive week-long course consists of 25 hours of lessons in 5 days, including a 2.5 hour field trip. The classes are small, with a maximum of 9 students, to make sure each student receives the attention he or she needs. Enroll today to start your Intensive Week. (These classes are NOT online and take place in a physical classroom.)

2. Custom Field Trips

Classroom-based learning is all well and good, but at Koentact we strongly believe that you will benefit much more if you can apply what you have learned during our unique Field Trips. The classes focus on theory, while the Field Trip on Wednesday and Friday afternoon is spent putting your new-found knowledge into practice.

These are not only designed to help you use your newly improved Dutch skills, but also to discover more about the “real” Amsterdam, its interesting locals, and fascinating culture.

3. Free review classes

Since this approach of learning Dutch in a week is quite intensive, you are more than welcome to join our review classes in the second and fourth week after your intensive program, to go over what you have learned.

4. Free coaching for the Civic Integration Examination

From Dutch Experience 3 (A2-) onwards you can join our free civic integration workshops. We offer three 2 hours workshops in the first, third, and fifth week after your intensive program. The workshops are consecutive, so taking all three will give you enough information to prepare yourself for het inburgeringsexamen.

5. Evaluation of your progress

Your progress will be evaluated during your course to determine if you are ready to move on to the next level. You will receive a certificate of attendance at the end of your Dutch course.
