Should have been more exam oriented. A lot of review from past levels, but not enough real exam preparation (mock exams, writing, speaking, listening under time limits). A lot of textbook work. Overall a thorough review of what we have previously learned, plus some new concepts, which was nice. However, I must say that I don't feel completely exam-ready. I expected an exam preparation course to be different from a Stepping Stone course, which is what it felt like.
De cursus is zeer intensief, en je moet heel veel thuis oefeningen. Maar heb ik heel veel geleerd en de grammatica begrepen
I enjoyed this class although it included way more grammar and homework than my last class. Maria really helped us to improve our grammar and polish our uitspraak, I think I learned a lot. Nonetheless would it be great to get a chance to take this class in the morning, I personally find evening classes tough.
Our teacher Maria was very good. She was always well prepared and went beyond the content of the book. The course is very intensive. You can learn a lot from it but if you have a busy full time job, then it will be difficult and also exhausting to keep up with the amount of homework. This course has a different format than Stepping Stone courses. If you are not planning to take a NT2 exam, then you may find it a bit too theoretical.
Ik found the course very good, however sometimes I did struggle learning the grammar. I feel that this may be a personal problem as I don't know another manner in which would help me understand it. I did find there was a lot of homework, and whilst this was a clear expectation before I started the course I did find it hard to balance the course/family/ work. I think i would prefer if you could take this course over a longer period and the lessons wouldnbe shorter. That would be mean less homework in the week and you have time to digest the new grammar etc.
Maria is a wonderful teacher. Her manner of teaching makes for a learning environment that is comfortable, while still encouraging students to reach a higher level of Dutch. The book could be better but she has no control over it, as it is the official NT2 book. Maria overcomes the shortcomings of the book with excellent additional information about grammar and other rules that you won't learn without her.
The course was wonderful and I learned a lot from it within a month and its a balance of speaking, writing and listening. I definitely feel that I have improved over the month learning here. The teacher was also very nice and always make sure we understand completely. Classroom ambience is nice and makes me feel happy,they also have tea and cookies in the class :) Overall it was very nice experience and course!
Its a good experience here. I have learned so much about tenses, and it helps me a lot in speaking and writing. I am satisfied about my decision to start a course in kickstart.
I have mine Netherlands vocabulary, grammar, and speaking quickly improved in the lesson. That is exactly what I need.
The course was very useful. It was very well structured with a lot of speaking, writing, reading (at home) . Challenging but in a good way.

What a wonderful experience I had with Kickstart! The class matertial was relevantly chosen to help you with your daily life in the Netherlands.
I always looked forward to coming to Dutch because I knew the class would entail lots of laughter and positive energy that made learning fun. Overall the teacher did a wonderful job of facilitating an environment in which students are not hesitant or scared to participate--the atmosphere was very inclusive.
DAT was fantastisch!! Ik heb dat zoveel geniet! Besonders ervaring!! :)
It was a great course and overall learning experience. Dynamics of the group worked well because and the teacher was fantastic. Sanne made classes fun and I genuinely enjoyed coming to the class. Keep up the good work and thank you.
I'm very happy with the course. I feel I have greatly improved my understanding of Dutch grammar and vocabulary through my time in Stepping Stone I. Sanne did a wonderful job of adjusting to our needs and answering any additional questions, as well as contributing to our knowledge and understanding of the Dutch culture.
I have improved my Dutch very much. This class is fast for me, but I can still follow the course.
Not bad
