Reviews for Kickstart School

No issues. An overall great experience.

It was a nice experience with the course. Sanne taught us the lessons very well and made the class very interactive. She cleared the doubts then and there.

My confidence in understanding Dutch words and phrases has grown during this course.

The lessons are good but I much prefer to be in the class rather than following virtually. It would also be good to have more examples and exercises for the grammar. There are not that many in the book nor online.

Perhaps you could explore conducting a slow pace learning course. Once every two weeks, it would give us time to review the materials before moving on to the next chapter

I have taken 2 courses at Kickstart School so far, and I think it is an excellent language school. Staff and teachers are very welcoming and dedicated! Highly recommended!

Kickstart has a great method that even virtually was excellent, it delivered quality and clarity. Christine is such a great teacher, so patient and calm.

No problems. Efficient.

Learning with Kickstart is always fun and exciting with quality content and emphasis on mastering the grammar, but not so strict in enforcing it. The experience is very good with various homework and exercise such as speaking, writing, and listening.

At the beggining it went a bit fast for me but then I got used to the rhythm. Much better experience than expected, considering it has been an online course It is a lot of material for only 12 lessons (24hours), maybe would be good to have the same plan per lesson but in 2.5h each time. I loved the "speaking" part because it is the only chance I have to practice it!

The transition to digital classes went extremely easy and professional!

I found the Steppingstone V class to be the right amount of "challenge" for me. I learnt a lot, and especially how to apply my learnings. Even through the pandemic (COVID-19), the classes always rand smoothly (online) and our lecturer really put in a lot of effort with us.

The curse has a very good and complete structure with all you need to practice different skills. Also, the teacher cares for enough interaction and balances the time very well among subjects

Very positive communication with the lecturer and the office. I also liked detailed explanations, focus on spoken Dutch and grammar. Good solutions during the pandemic to have a virtual classroom (we did not encounter technical difficulties). I also liked my group, which turned out to be advanced enough for us to cover a lot of materials.

The stuff are highly experienced and the course and institute are well organized

I am satisfied, everything was more or less well organized in spite of these unforeseen circumstances.

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.
