Customer reviews

The teacher was really good. She was invested in us and wanted to make sure we learn as much as we could.

Maryke Rich

Learning was quite easy and fun, especially with Joke's help. The study materials were great, and were completely utilized on the whole duration of the sessions.

Rina Marie

The company is very professional!! Sometimes I think the language courses in this country are really expensive, but the quality in this academy is really good

Alejandra

Have to be able to meet other au pairs during the first day. And I can tell that Joke is a very nice teacher. She's very patient to us and she explains that course very well. Though we don't do our class in your place we learned a lot and I hope we will apply this in the future. ALSO, it's very good that you provided us book and some notes that's a plus for me. I hope you continue learning people to teach dutch and other languages you offer.

Jean

I was really nice to learn Dutch with Joke, even if sometimes I cannot understand everything. The zoom classes were nice. I think I'm now able to understand some basic words from my kids or host parents, or even in the supermarket.

I took a basic dutch course in Kickstart School. I had a really good experience, the course is well structured and the teacher (Miss Joke Fransen) made the lessons easy to follow and not boring. The only remark i have is the focus on some topics that I personally found not useful. It's important to know the vocabulary but i don't have to know the name of every type of pan.

The netherlands is my favorite place in the world, amazing country. Great people and environment.
