The classes of the in-person evening and conversation courses take place at ‘het ROC’. The ROC has many locations all over Amsterdam. The building where Koentact offers their Dutch classes is located at Da Costastraat 36, Amsterdam.
With a total of 16 classrooms, on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, this school lives and breathes Koentact!
The classes of the in-person morning courses and Intensive Weeks take place at one of the following locations:
Op de fiets: The easiest and fastest way for most: biking to class.
Public transport: You can navigate to your class location by using 9292.nl for example.
By car: You can park at the Q-park Europarking garage, located on Marnixstraat 250.
The online class take place through Zoom. Please follow these steps to get ready:
1. Download Zoom.
2. Create an account (if you don’t have an account yet).
3. Sign in when you have class. 😊
In addition to our in-person courses, Koentact also offers Field Trips!
At Koentact, we are convinced that the best way to learn Dutch is by understanding its practical relevance. This means applying what you learned in the classroom during fun Saturday Field Trips!
For our in-person courses, new students will receive a Koentact folder and pen. Students in level Dutch Experience 1, 2, 3, and 4 will also receive handouts of course slides. For higher levels, the slides will be shared online. You’ll receive lined paper to make notes, which you can add to your folder.
Besides the class materials, you can bring a reusable bottle for water, coffee, or tea.
If you happen to miss a class, you can let your teacher know about this. Your teacher will be able to share the class material with you, so you can study by yourself.
You can also join our free online review classes (A0-A2), which are held twice per session, to ask questions if something’s still unclear. These sessions are held via Zoom and take place on Friday evenings.
At Koentact you receive a certificate after finishing your course. This will mention the name of the course and the level you’ve reached.
For example: after completing Dutch Experience 1 your level of Dutch is A1- according to the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR). The certificate will testify that you have completed the Dutch course (at an attendance of at least 80% of the program) and have successfully passed the final test.
