Please note that due to the current COVID-19 crisis all our courses are being taught online until further notice.

In order to be able to give more individual attention during the remote classes we are lowering the number of students to a maximum of 8.

We also have a more lenient opt-out policy so you can respond to changing circumstances.

 

Do you want to take the next step on your Dutch language journey? Then Kickstart School’s Stepping Stone I course will get you results. This Dutch course reinforces and expands upon basic grammar, develops vocabulary, and focuses on improving fluency in speaking to bring you to a pre-intermediate level (A2). The course introduces new vocabulary and grammatical structures in a communicative way. The lessons support active speaking.

We have many different options for the Stepping Stone I. We have options for people who want to have lessons once a week, twice a week, in the morning or in the evening. For people who cannot come on a weekday due to work, we have weekend courses. We also offer intensive courses such as one week courses in the summer holidays and the 2 week Double Your Dutch intensive course that combines Starterpack and Stepping Stone I.

3 months ago, I couldn't speak any dutch sentences at all and now I can understand what others talk in dutch and I can speak dutch! My teacher Odette is very positive and enthusiastic and I want to get another course from her if I can ;) She gives us a lot of compliments and always supports students. I've been taking 2 dutch courses at kickstart school and I registered the 3rd one to continue. It wasn't a waste of time and I don't regret taking courses here.
Sunhee
I personally learned a lot from this course. The teacher was patient and motivated to teach new things.
Joseph Sony Jean
I had a great experience with Kickstart I signed up for the Starterpack followed by the Stepping Stone 1. Stepping stone 1 offered a lot of information which was perfect but the teacher had to slow down at some point, as it became intense. I will take Stepping Stone 2 eventually but I will wait a bit before I do that.
Ghassan
This is my second course with kickstart and I hope to have a third in the future, I have consistently found the administration helpful and professional and the teachers well informed. I enjoyed the range of activities and excellent response to feedback.
Ellie
I liked we were only 6 I think it went well on Zoom I really appreciate Odette's work, her energetic and positive personality and her being so supportive to learn, it was a great experience The only thing I did not like was the kickstart.net structure - it is really difficult to navigate, not very user friendly (I preferred the coutinho website for practising)
Orsi
Great experience with the company it self. The administration and teacher are very friendly
Maryke
I started with very little knowledge of the dutch language and finished the course being able to understand written and spoken dialogues. The course is very packed and fast paced but I have learned so much in 3 months. I am now able to have short conversations with my neighbours!
