Reviews for Kickstart School

I started the Dutch course from 16 April until 2 July 2024. I got a good experience in this class with lovely teacher. She is a good teacher because I am Asia so different to pronounce, she made extra class for me. I recommend this academy. Kickstart is perfect teaching, learning and practicing.

Kickstart school verbertert mijn Nederlands taal beter dan vroeger heel veel

Overall good the classroom exercises were fun and challenging but I enjoyed it and the teacher was good

The class is very good

Best pace, clear understanding of Grammer and some interactive activities

The lesson was really nice. The teacher was amazing and ready to help. The material of the course was probably a lot to absorb I would prefer a slower pace. I feel confident that I can understand some basic stuff and now it is up to me to study and move on to the next steps.

It was very good experience. Now I know how to reading and I know many new words.

An instructive learning experience with a practical approach

The teacher is very good. she knows how to lead the class and explain the language. However, sometimes there was little time to do the exercises because every class we have many many things to learn. Other difficulty, which is not related to the teacher, is that it is too late for me, after a complete day of work I have little energy and lack focus.

10 dynamic lessons with a good balance btw speaking, writing and reading

Everything was enjoyable, all the materials provided and the expertise of the lecturer were great.

I would like to continue with a follow-up course after summer.

The class was one of the highlights of every week. The general atmosphere is very welcoming and the teacher supportive. The content forced me past my comfort zone, without causing total frustration.

Lefty is an excellent teacher. The way of learning is something I can take with me when I struggle to use my Dutch. The class was gezellig and serious at the same time—a perfect mix. I am grateful for this experience.

I enjoyed my course with Letty so much. She is passionate and encouraging. She explained grammar clearly and she gave us different speaking exercises. The workload is just right.

De cursus Nederlands was ontzettend leerzaam en plezierig, ik heb veel geleerd en voelde me altijd ondersteund door de docenten.

Great classroom experience! Our docent, Letty balances book study with conversation and it left the whole class with an excellent learning experience.

Kickstart is a great school where you actually want to go:) The lessons were always interesting and had enough of dynamics and different materials. Letty is a very inspiring teacher! I would only add a bit more of checks/dictation which might keep the gained knowledge more strictly. Also, it would be helpful to have more grammar explanations in the materials.

I am vert pleased with the course. The pace is quite fast and it requires a lot of work at home but I enjoyed it. Professor is excellent and very patient.

The company helped a lot by making sure I participate in the correct level that suits me. I also found the website really helpful while doing my homework.

I am very happy with the course.

Well structured

Toen ik voor het eerst bij Kickstart begon, twijfelde ik aan mijn taalvaardigheid. Ik deed goed met het luisteren maar mijn vocabulaire was vooral passief en ik had ook problemen met het spreken en het uiten van mijn mening over bepaalde onderwerpen. Dankzij de cursussen van stepping stone 3 tot en met 5 is mijn Nederlands nu beter dan ooit. De focus lag op spreken en elke les hadden we interessante aktiviteiten waarbij we met de andere cursisten in verschillende discussies gingen. De onderwerpen waren breed - van klimaat en duurzamheid tot recensies van beroemde films en boeken. Ik ben erg dankbaar voor onze docent Letty die ons de lessen heel professioneel en met aandacht heeft gegeven. Ik heb veel heel geleerd in Kickstart. Mijn vertrouwen in de taal is nu groter en ik probeer elke dag Nederlands te spreken wanneer ik buiten ga. Bedankt voor alles! :))

It is nice experience. I would love also to have more intensive and longer course.

I enjoyed a lot the lessons with Letty, very well steuctured.
