Reviews for Kickstart School

I have been here for four courses and i really enjoy it.

I am happy with Kickstart but this level was a bit overwhelming and

I really enjoyed my two classes and learning Dutch has made my time in The Hague much more enjoyable.

Ik hou van de tijden die we kunnen bespreken over onderwerpen en geven onze meningen met elkaar, vooral onze lerares corrigeert ons als het nodig is. Door de handout heb ik veel geschiedenis van Nederland geleerd. Trouwens vind ik het leuk om readers te lezen en schrijftopdrachten te doen.

Good experience! the teacher was so helpful. The method was also good. A lot of homeworks that helped me to learn better.

It has been a pleasure following the dutch courses with Kathleen in Kickstartschool. My ability to speak the language has improved greatly and my grammar skills as well. I recommend the school to anyone that wants to learn dutch. I am definitely going to follow the next course Stepping Stone V to reach level B2. Thank you for a great journey so far and see you soon.

I feel that my Dutch has really improved from this course. What I like most about it is the variety of lesson materials, we discuss books and various historical events on top of regular grammar and vocabulary. Kathleen is also a great teacher, very happy overall with the course

the course helped with my communication skills and my vocabulary skills. It was fun yet informative.

It was a good experience and I hope my dutch will improve with time.

I find the classes very comprehensive, but I found this level a bit too complicated, so I am interested in a follow- up for this in August if available. (for only this level, maybe a quick grammar recap course with some speaking...)

understandable, comfortable pace, from the couch at home

Since this course took place just when the whole issue with corona started, I did not have high expectations, but this course and mostly the teacher Christine has demonstrated that online learning through a videocall is as effective as going physically to the class. Many thanks for making this experience a little bit better!

Very nice atmosphere at the course. The teacher put the group always in a good mood. There was a lot of speaking/listening involved, which was very helpful for me

Kickstart has been very supportive since the beginning. The transition into online classes was fantastic. Both the teacher and all the staff have been absolutely amazing. Really happy with my choice

I already recommend you to some friends and colleagues. ;-)

We covered a lot in this class, and while in other situations this could have been overwhelming, Kathleen guided us through everything and explained things in a way that was comprehensive and easy to digest. The homework was manageable, and the classes were divided more or less evenly between all learning disciplines. Big thank you to Kathleen for her feedback and insight. I learned a lot and feel more confident speaking Dutch outside of the class.

Fun, very informative and relevant! Great teacher!

Excellent course despite corona restrictions. The course was run over Zoom, despite the lack of normal class interactions the lessons were very well prepared. Plenty of opportunities to speak, read, listen and write.

Our teacher is very good, she explains everything very well and makes it easier for us to understand

Due to corona, it was all online based but it worked well with great teacher and friendly classmates. I learned a lot.

I had one course in the school itself with Mariet & later on, it switched to online classes. But the level of education hasn't decreased! Letty is a great teacher! Really appreciated the flexibility of time to choose from! Thank you. Kind regards, Aliaksandra

I liked the course very much. Would never change from online to face to face lessons again. I think 2 hours is a great time for less, I am worried that 2.5 will be tiring. Other than that, all great.

I had the course via zoom. It was convenient and I am satisfied.

The teacher Maarten was really understanding and explains the grammar very well. I gained the confidence to speak dutch during this course (stepping stone 1) and there was a focus on writing as a medium to understand the language better. We also played games that kept the course fun and aided in learning the vocabulary. Overall I would recommend this course to anyone in search of a language school that focuses on building a stable foundation in order to learn a language.

i have already spend 2 terms here. very patient and friendly teachers. the book Netherlands in gang" is also efficient. studying here will accelerate your learning. however you must study materials are much. there is not any exam at the end of each term.
