Skype lessons function as flexible and personalised private lessons and are ideal for people who have busy lifestyles, difficult schedules, or who live outside The Hague.
Kickstart works together with the student to design a programme tailored to their goals. This is discussed in the initial intake and can be adapted as the course progresses. Skype lessons are well-suited to help students improve their speaking, pronunciation, and other language skills and can be supported by exercises and materials on KickstartNet, our online learning platform.
Materials A computer with a good internet connection and Skype. While not strictly required, a webcam is also highly recommended.
