The class was a good overview, but I would need additional classes to actually understand the language. The book randomly stopped explaining things in English, which was not very helpful. Some of the conjucations didn't have rules either, which I still find confusing. My instructor was very kind, and the class would probably have been more effective if it was more than just once a week. I think I almost know the basics, but would definitely need more practice.
18 December, 2019
Everyone was very helpful and pleasant to talk with. It was a great course to help with basic, day to day Dutch. I also enjoyed meeting many new au pairs! :)
18 December, 2019

13 December, 2017
In my experience I did not find this course very useful.
13 December, 2017
The course is very interesting, the teacher is really cool. I've learned some basic words in Dutch but I admit it is really difficult as an Asian Lady. I am proud that I am able to go to this Basic school in Dutch and feel great to be part of this course . I am sincerely thankful to miss Chei Mei that she teaches us.

Overall for me its very Good.
5 December, 2017
It was good and useful the basic course for me it will help.
5 December, 2017
I was surprised by how small my class was (five au pairs)but it made for a great hands on learning experience and allowed our teacher to gauge our learning needs based on our individual needs. A great class overall and helped me communicate with my host kids who speak very little English.
5 December, 2017
I had a bad experience with the teacher because she choose someone good in the class and started to compare with the other persons. I felt bad and sad, one time she said in front of everyone that I was being lazy.
5 December, 2017
Really good course! But sometimes was a little hard because in just one class we did too much things, so I think that is better ifnin one class you concentrate in less things.
28 June, 2017
It was fun meeting new people. I like that I could ask questions and get a very good detailed answer. Thank you.
28 June, 2017

27 June, 2017
Heel goed !

This course allowed to get in touch with the Dutch language and culture in an eash and funny way. it helps me understand better and get a little bit closer to the Dutch community
28 March, 2017
we go fast , but course is also short. we should repeat more the basic sentences in a start of every class to remember better..
28 March, 2017
its good, but the materia, is a little comfuse sometimes.
28 March, 2017
i am going to do another course because i really enjoyed learning anotber language.
14 December, 2016
Overall, this was a great beginner's course for au pairs just arriving in the Netherlands. You learn the basics that are relevant to your situation and you get to be with other au pairs as well. Henny is a great teacher and very personable.
My only issue was that I never received emails relevant to the school or course until i asked the office to send tnem to myself as well as my host mother.
14 December, 2016
It was a really nice experience and I did not only learn something about the language, also about the country and the traditions. It was nice to meet other aupairs through this course and to have one time a week a change in your daily routine as an aupair. I would recommend this course for all aupairs who are interested in learning the basics
14 December, 2016
For a foreigners like me, its really hard for me to understand the languange. But because of the kickstart school, it helps me a lot to understand more about the language.
14 December, 2016
I learned a lot and at the same time i had fun and gain new friends.
14 December, 2016
It is an honor for me to learn basic dutch language. It s very useful then to communicate to others.
13 December, 2016
It was a good experience for me as an Au pair bcause I learn things/few words that is useful for my communication with the kids under my care but then if I really want to speak well in Dutch is that I need to continue with the starterpackand up.But it was not useful any more since Au pairs need to move again from another country. thank you!
13 December, 2016
12 lessons are not enough to really learn the language. But I do recommend the course for stepping stone to those who really wanna speak Dutch language. And absolutely should take another course to continue learning how to speak, read and write in Dutch language.
13 December, 2016
the course was really interesting and i learned a lot.
13 December, 2016
teacher is nice, very helpful, I would recommend this course to other Au pairs but for me personally I would be happier if I was supported more as an individual rather than as a group
13 December, 2016
It is nice experience learning dutch language its difficult but helpful.
13 December, 2016

29 June, 2016
I loved the course, just think that it is too short, not the time of the class, but the duration of the course, cause it was just for few months. Then, because of this, we need to skip or do some pages and parts of the book a bit faster. Thank you for all!!!
29 June, 2016
