Reviews voor Kickstart School

i feel this course helps to build a solid basis for the beginners. i appreciated the rather faster pace of teaching. i feel the course also offers a good balance between grammar and building up speaking, writing ans listening skills.

I really enjoyed my time at kickstart school! Everybody was friendly and helpful! I had never expect that I could have learn that much within two weeks. Think definitely bout doing Stepping Stone II if my wallet allows it :) btw: if you are German and you have zero previous knowledge but are good and willing at learning languages you can definitely begin with this course!

het is mooie cursus.Voor mij is belangrijk luisteren naar nederland taal te begrepen beter waaneer derlans mensen samen praten

I had a good experience with my course stepping stop 1 and I would to continue with kickstart for my future course to improve on my Dutch more.

I've learned a lot from this course especially the grammar. It helps me to improve my knowledge about the language and I am confident to practise Dutch in my daily conversation.

:-(

The course moves at a fast pace and covers a lot of grammar and vocabulary. Nederlands in gang is slightly dated but effective in introducing key language in context. Kickstart provide additional material for practice and homework. Our teacher Kathleen was excellent and supported our learning all the way. I recommend this course. I'm continuing on the next course and looking forward to it :)

Very satisfied with everything. The book, handouts, and the online materials, have exceeded my expectations. The selection of the teacher is very well done. Mrs. Kathleen did great job in explaining the course. The selection of students was very good as well, as this helped all of us to proceed faster. I would only suggest to arrange some social events.

I found the course pretty useful. The friendly environment, the teaching method along with the material have turned the course into a course which I look forward to continuing in the next level.

Thanks for making learning Dutch stress free! Fun teacher, great learning environment and group☺

Language course was itensive. School materials/handout was easy to use and with all information what necesery. Thank you

Very good course. In such short time I learnt a lot. I didn't expect so much. Thank you!

.

excellent ! Good pace, friendly and empathetic teacher, and just the right sized group

Excellent teacher and environment!

Fun and useful experience

I came into the starter pack for beginners really eager and focused on learning Dutch. Maarten did and excellent job making sure that everyone in the classroom who had the same goals did just that! The classroom enviroment was always positive and driven. I am so impressed I immediately subscribed for the A2 course.

I would just like to add some things first. The first course I did (starterpack for beginners) was full of students and only me and two other people continued the course. In the last one (stepping stone) I know at least 5 people have commented that they do not have the interest to move on. People who like me, who did the course only because they wanted to, not by “obligation”. So it's not just my opinion. It's something that my colleagues and I used to talk every week. Even the school having an excellent structure, people of administration being kind, the teacher being REALLY a teacher (I can not say the same about the first one that I had), I would not recommend to another foreigner the course. ;/ Why? First, because in the classes I attended had people with completely different levels of Dutch. So, at first, I went on a course that was for people who don’t speak Dutch at all and had people who already spoke. The level of class changes according to the students. Second, many contents are taught per class. Yes, I know it's a semi-intensive course. But I imagine that you, guys, care about the quality of your service. So I do not think that you would be satisfied knowing the students can not learn all the informations that you give during class. Even if you request the extra 5h of study per week, we want to leave the class understanding what was taught and not needing to learn everything by ourself at home. Third, teachers saying that the content is super easy does not make it any easier. Only discourages students from expressing their doubts. My suggestion would be a course with fewer contents taught per class. I'm sure the use would be better. Teaching less content in a class but practicing much more these contents. Your student would know less content but would know with quality.

Stepping Stone I helped me improve and increase my Dutch level. It required much more work than the first module but it was all worth it. Kathleen was really nice and I definitely plan to continue with the next modules.

Course is good but need to be in more detail.

The course is thorough with the right pace and good study material.

Ik heb dit heel leuk gevond. I really liked this course. It helped me get more comfortable with speaking the language. I would refer this course to anyone who would like to learn the language.

I really enjoyed it. Will definitely come back again

Awesome! Love the teacher!

Dank je wel
