I really enjoyed the classes as they were filled with lots of conversations about different topics. I feel like my shyness to sound silly is not there anymore and I am much more confident to start conversations. I would however make the classes a bit shorter as 2.5 hrs is a bit much on an evening. Paul made the classes fun!
Good language course, but the timing 2.5 hours is too long especially at the evening. Would be better to start at 7pm The courses also focus a lot on grammar but would prefer other stuff
Dear Lalita, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are pleased to hear you had a good overall experience with the course. We plan our course schedules to accommodate a range of needs, trying to meet diverse schedules and lifestyles. We understand that the 2.5-hour evening sessions can feel long, we also realize that timing preferences can vary widely. Some people prefer longer, uninterrupted sessions, while others prefer shorter sessions, especially in the evening. Regarding the course content, we pay attention to grammar because it forms the foundation of any language. A solid understanding of grammar helps students build the structure needed to communicate clearly and confidently. That said, all our general courses incorporate a variety of activities beyond grammar practice, such as speaking, listening, and vocabulary-building exercises. We’re always looking to strike the right balance and will continue refining our approach. Thanks again and we hope to welcome you back for another course soon! Best regards, The Kickstart School Team
The course was nice, focus on speaking and freedom on how much effort one puts in. The 2.5 hours were very long, 2 hours feels easier to concentrate. For the novels, it would be nice to read books from Dutch authors instead of German and English.
Improved my ability to have conversations thanks to the face to face course.
There are a good amount of resources for learning and the teachers are supportive.
Very good, easy to follow and very good instructions
Its definetly made fun and its good way to learn with fun people.
Everything was well arranged. Lucas followed up a lot with students and corrected our homework all the time. He made the classes enjoyable and insightful.
I am very satisfied with the online group lesson. The teacher was very goed. All my questions and problems which I had so far were completely solved. Everybody participates equally in the lessons. There is also very good organisation.
The courses are outlined to practise grammar and vocabulary through each lesson so that we learn and repeat the words used over time making it easier
I largely enjoyed the course I recently took with Kickstart School. It was useful for ensuring I learned a bit of Dutch every week, but when the lessons switched from two hours to two and a half hours it felt a little too long. Towards the end of each lesson I was struggling to concentrate and I suspect the same was true of some of my coursemates. I would prefer that the course were a few weeks longer and that each lesson were no more than two hours long.
I have very positive experience and would like to proceed with the next course.
The only thing I criticise is the book was in my opinion too difficult too many words and we didn’t have enough time to memorise I may forgot most of them.
I enjoyed my time during this course. I have certainly seen an improvement in my level of Dutch. Maarten has been a great teacher! The course was very well executed and to a high standard.
De cursus was mijn eerste serieus stap met Nederlands leren. Ik heb meer zelfvertrouwen om in Nederlands te spreken en ik heb veel nieuwe woorden en grammatica geleerd.
I like the teaching method of kickstart school. Very interactive and lessons are well planned.
I liked how the course was structured, with a lot of different types of exercises, and a lot of speaking. The size of the group was good too (7 people) and could easily follow or ask questions if something was not clear. The teacher (Letty) also always answered quickly by email to my text and questions.
Letty is a very good teacher. I have improved my Dutch skill. (But I am little bit lazy)
A good learning experience, diversified teaching materials. Probably good to focus a bit more on grammar.
It was a great course, i really enjoy this pace more than the previous one
I feel like my teacher was good at balancing the groups different levels of Dutch and give personal advice just as much as going over the general tasks that we needed to do. I also feel like you were taken serious and that it was clear that we were there to learn and we used the time in a good manner.
Great company but limited toilets
Kathleen was an amazing teacher, she helped us with all patience. I feel the course very helpful, complete and a great start to learn a new language.
The teacher was very structured and entertaining .
It's better to have practice class
