Reviews for Kickstart School

Everytime I take a course, my Dutch improves very fast. It is nice studying experience since everyone is here not only to study but also to have fun. The studying groups are small so we get to know each other by the end of the course.

I had a great time improving my Dutch skills

I enjoyed the Dutch course. I would have liked a little more pressure (with homework, tests, etc) to keep myself motivated. But we did a lot of good exercises and speaking practice. Overall very nice.

I really enjoyed the teacher. She was very good at explaining. I found it hard to get a lesson with another class when I was not able to make it to my own. However the teacher gives us a short summary at the beginning of the lesson and the homework and lesson plan on kick start net made it easy to catch up on my own. Overall highly recommended and will be following up with ss1.

Good experience for grammar practice and weekly speaking exercises. Word knowledge was better in starter pack and stepping stone I. I missed the stories and Dutch to English vocabulary from the first book. Also teachers should tell students to not correct others as it is discouraging. Overall positive experience and teacher Sanne is very welcoming and sweet.

I really enjoyed the lessons, the teacher is very supportive, and she takes good time to help you understand. I think she could be a bit more strict with people not listening, and it would be better to be a bit quicker and not get so sidetracked. I do really feel like I have learned a lot and I would carry on with kick start in the future

The course is very good and the materials is very helpful.

Experience was good, the supplements were very helpful in explaining concepts that were not covered clearly in the book.

Here you get the basics for learning Dutch. Coming to the lessons will teach you a lot and you can work even more doing the homework, so the total of your learning experience will depend of how much additional work you do yourself.

Positively surprises with the excellent organization, nice environment and small classes. The teacher was pleasant and engaging. I'd definitely recommend the school and take further courses myself at Kickstart! Thank you!

Good course

The point I gave is not related with person who gives the course, materials were too much for the limited the we have, it should have been trimmed or prepared accordingly.

learnt a lot

I have to admit that i learned more about the professional side of English which was quite nice. Specially the teaching method was really helpful in this process.

The course was really good and enjoyable. We have learnt tenses,grammars, professional sentences to use, diplomacy, email writing and chair meetjng. Thank you for all the details and learning material. Overall, this course is quite helpful for us as a professional.

We got to learn a lot of good concepts.

For busineess english course my personal expectation was a bit different. I was expecting to have more activities business related, role based activities like having business call and fix after sharing in front of the class.

your company gives us a good opportunity with coming to our company

our theacher helped us a lot to understand lectures

the teacher is good, but the content of course to me is too simple. I can take away a lot from the course into my practice.

Kickstart was well organised. My Dutch teacher, Erica, was lovely and she helped us along the way. We always had time for questions and discussions which allowed us to also practice our skills. The classes were a great size and it worked well.

The advantage is that the lessons are in small groups and are interactive. You have to prepare seriously for the lessons, what was sometimes my challenge due to heavy schedule and travel. What you learn are practical issues, it is not only memorising words or texts without a context.

I was really satisfied with my Dutch Stepping Stone 1 course and my group. The groups are small in size, which makes the learning process more personal. The teacher has time to check your writing assignments and give personal feedback. What I also liked about my teacher was that she engaged us to be creative and give non-textbook answers. Overall, my experience was very pleasant. The administration is also very responsive and helpful. P. S. The cookies and tea are amazing))

Good pace, good content, relevant topics, patient teacher, good study material.

Course content really good, although moved very fast with little time to really absorb the material.
