I really enjoyed my time at Kickstart
17 december, 2019
I had already some basis and I am very happy that I have improve my language. I will for sure continue the cursus.
17 december, 2019
My teacher Odette was very patient and could always answer by questions. The students was very nice and I liked each class.
17 december, 2019
I improved my Dutch in a consistent way. Teachers are well prepared and the website is a nice plus for assuring you are learning effectively.
12 december, 2019
I really enjoyed the experience and the way grammer is taught is amazing. lots of extra materials to practice helps to understand grammer comphrensively. The teacher was really good at putting across the concepts. Thank you for the wonderful experience.
12 december, 2019
learnt a lot and feel pretty confident about practicing my dutch now
12 december, 2019
dank he wel
12 december, 2019
The classes were intensive and very informative. The course material was helpful throughout the course.
12 december, 2019
The lessons were great, not only we have learned a great deal during the lessons, but we also enjoyed ourselves a lot.
The teacher, Sanne is such a warm and great person, she made this lessons a pleasure to be in...and after a few weeks I can actually communicate in Dutch! Thanks for that
12 december, 2019
Had a good time learning Dutch in a friendly atmosphere.
12 december, 2019
I like my study in this school and I will recommend my friends .
10 december, 2019
Kickstart was well organised. My Dutch teacher, Erica, was lovely and she helped us along the way. We always had time for questions and discussions which allowed us to also practice our skills. The classes were a great size and it worked well.
10 december, 2019
The advantage is that the lessons are in small groups and are interactive. You have to prepare seriously for the lessons, what was sometimes my challenge due to heavy schedule and travel. What you learn are practical issues, it is not only memorising words or texts without a context.
10 december, 2019
I was really satisfied with my Dutch Stepping Stone 1 course and my group. The groups are small in size, which makes the learning process more personal. The teacher has time to check your writing assignments and give personal feedback. What I also liked about my teacher was that she engaged us to be creative and give non-textbook answers. Overall, my experience was very pleasant.
The administration is also very responsive and helpful.
P. S. The cookies and tea are amazing))
10 december, 2019
Good pace, good content, relevant topics, patient teacher, good study material.
9 december, 2019
My experience was very instructive and I will have another lessons to continue my learning
30 november, 2019
The course was very helpful to learn how to use Dutch language in daily situations. My listening and reading comprehension have improved due to this course.
30 november, 2019
The course and the communication was really good and it held to get to strengthen the basics of the Dutch language
30 november, 2019
The class was not as active nor interactive as Pascale's class. However, it was good. Not sure if the teacher prepared the material prior the class. Our notebook rarely had any notes through the class.
30 november, 2019
Great overall experience
30 november, 2019
I enjoyed the course and learnt a lot. I can have a basic conversation in Dutch.
31 oktober, 2019
One of the best teachers ever!
31 oktober, 2019
Interesting. We shared also cultural differences.
31 oktober, 2019
Nice school, staffs are friendly, issues are dealed very quickly.
31 oktober, 2019
I really enjoyed this course and could see the improvement in my Dutch from day one!
31 oktober, 2019
Very good and fun environment, with lots of international students and insightful teachers that love teaching.
31 oktober, 2019
I like the teacher Sanne, she found a good balance and adapted to the needs of the group without losing the focus on the methodology. Semi_intensive pace was as I expected.
4 september, 2019
Our teacher, Mariette van der Lee was so great.
She focused on speaking and forced us to speak and use the past, present, and future tense in our speaking.
regarding the time of class, that was so late for me, maybe if the class started at 6.30, It was so efficient.
Thank you.
2 september, 2019
Very approachable teacher and good energy in the class but the text exercise instructions at ss1 level should be in English so that you can fully understand what you need to do.
2 september, 2019
Everything is well organised, the teacher is so good and makes learning Dutch so much fun. I was genuinely looking forward for each next class! Highly recommend it☺️
2 september, 2019
I have only good experience with this company.
2 september, 2019
I have been studying Dutch for almost 3 months since beginner course and I have enjoyed a lot every class. These classes and a good teacher would always allow you to learn and grow up in a new language.
24 augustus, 2019
it was relly hard for me.because it was more intensiver than befor.chapters were more than first intensive curse and dat mak it hard.and sth missed because we wanted to finish our plan
24 augustus, 2019
In the intensive course I could learn a lot with the teacher Sandra!
de cursus is heel goed! But I must tell it demands a lot of selfstudy!
24 augustus, 2019
I am very pleased not only with what I'learned but also with my teacher, my classmates and the school.
24 augustus, 2019
Great use of time. I did the 1week intensive course and while it is a lot of information pretty quickly, the lessons clearly explained the grammar, reasoning and rational. I feel like I know have the building blocks to build on, just need more practice. I liked the quick pace.
24 augustus, 2019
I loved the one week intensive course with the teacher Sandra. There were lot of new information and homeworks, maar voor mij het was niet te moielijk :)
24 augustus, 2019
Het was een interessant en Hele gezeligge cursus.
24 augustus, 2019
Het was prima!
24 augustus, 2019
De les is goed. We Hebben wel grammar geleerd met de goed docent.
3 augustus, 2019
I have done beginner course almost a year ago, and find that the course is really improved than before.
3 augustus, 2019
The administration was efficient and everything was organised
3 augustus, 2019
Kickstart is a really good school. I had some difficulties with the professor I had, different teaching and learning style and they were allowed me to change classes.
SS1 is pretty good, Mariette is an excellent teacher and I'm happy I was able to change classes.
3 augustus, 2019
The SS1 course helped expand my vocabulary and taught me more grammatical rules, building on the grammar learned in the Starter Pack. Mariette was an excellent teacher and she was very good at explaining all the formal, and informal, rules to the language.
3 augustus, 2019
Hard intensive week but a rewarding week where I learnt a lot
3 augustus, 2019
I took my first dutch course at another school, and kickstart is miles ahead when it comes to teaching dutch. Mariette is a great teacher and I looked forward to coming to class (stepping stone 1) every day. I can already understand much more spoken dutch and am excited to take the next course soon.
3 augustus, 2019
Professional and friendly
3 augustus, 2019
Nice group and teacher helpnto talk and practice a lot
3 augustus, 2019
The teacher is super , class is fun I'll totally recommend Kickstart
3 augustus, 2019
Great teachers, great dialogue based learning and I speak much better now
21 juli, 2019
Ik heb heel Nederlands leren.
17 juli, 2019
Administration was okay, teacher was good
15 juli, 2019
In ben blij met Kickstart. Als, de situactie wil met mijn favour. Ik will graag nog een keer begint met Kickstart. Hartlijk bedankt allemaal van Kickstart. Onze leraar is super.
15 juli, 2019
Het was een leuk cursus
15 juli, 2019
Ik heb heel veel geleerd
10 juli, 2019
Very good teaching, however the material used could be more explanatory.
10 juli, 2019
The pace of teaching was good
10 juli, 2019
Classes are small do you get a lot of attention from the teacher. Great experience in general.
10 juli, 2019
Amazing loved coming and learning something new everyday
10 juli, 2019
I have enjoyed my time here. Maarten and my course mates made it interesting.
9 juli, 2019
i had a really good time here and learned a lot.
9 juli, 2019
practice more conversation
9 juli, 2019
I think that was a very useful course and I would like to continues.
9 juli, 2019
pleasant experience, I learned a lot and quickly.
9 juli, 2019
With a welcoming and comfortable learning environment, the Kickstart staff and school offer a comprehensive syllabus and varied methods of absorbing the material accessible for many learning styles. I look forward to my next course at Kickstart and recommend it to anyone seeking to learn Dutch.
9 juli, 2019
Ik vindt het leuk om hier te komen en iets nieuws te leren. De nederlanse curus heeft mij veel geholpen om meer nederlands te kunnen praaten.
9 juli, 2019
Very good communication with teacher and administration.
Not very good UX website, not too friendly.
8 juli, 2019
Ik vind de cursus veel behulpzaam!
8 juli, 2019
Everything is good.
8 juli, 2019
We have a lot of speaking and writing activities. I improve a lot. And nice school location, friendly staff and teachers.
8 juli, 2019
Well organised with a fun teacher and diverse class. I could feel myself starting to understand Dutch more and picking up things faster. Our teacher was always patient and happy to answer our numerous questions
8 juli, 2019
I'm very satisfied, and of course I registered for the next course!
8 juli, 2019
Pleasant group and the teacher. Everything was explained well.
8 juli, 2019
Very interactive learning environment!
6 juli, 2019
The course and facilities is nice but the course is too rush as in insufficient total course hours to become proficient in the language. Longer hours and more supportive material to allow more practice will help.
6 juli, 2019
Ik vind de cursus heel goed. Inger was HELE GOED
I really enjoyed the class I had a hard time studying mid class however i still feel I learned a lot.
4 juli, 2019
While I am not a fan of the book, the teaching was excellent. And a lot of supplemental materials are provided to enhance your vocabulary and knowledge of Dutch society.
I think more effort/attention should be placed on a couple different things:
1) Class dynamic: My class was full of enthusiastic people who spoke over the other students and even the teacher. It made the learning experience very stressful sometimes. This needs to be remedied.
2) Why not make a class with just German or South African speakers who already have a lot of knowledge of Dutch? They have a tendency to skew the pace of the class.
4 juli, 2019
After SS1 i can uderstand what are people talking about on the train and in a conversation with friends. I think its because so much grammar has been explained to me. Our teacher also explained to us all the extra questions about the grammar.
4 juli, 2019
I liked the support and knowledge of the teacher. I think more speaking practice and listening exercises would be better
4 juli, 2019
Out of the sudden, the Dutch grammar started to make sense to me. Everything explained calmly and sufficiently. All my questions were always answered, even if repeated. It was alot of fun!
4 juli, 2019
i enjoyed the class mainly due to the willingness of the teacher to go above and beyond to satisfy the class ambition
3 juli, 2019
Fun, easy, well structured.
3 juli, 2019
I found out a lot about Dutch and it was very interesting. Many thanks to Mariette.
3 juli, 2019
The teacher was amazing and she had a good communication with us,and she was very friendly. Thank you!
3 juli, 2019
Dutch is not easy to learn but ms Mariette makes everything clear and I do learned a lot from the class and I find its also interesting, to be finally understands some dutch in daily life.
3 juli, 2019
Easy to follow, and well structured.
29 juni, 2019
The class is very interactive and very informative. However, the pace of the lesson is quite fast and requires more practise and exercise to learn it well.
29 juni, 2019
I think the "map" (extra materials) should not occupy too much time during the class. I prefer to focus on the textbook, the content from the book is already enough.
29 juni, 2019
De course was goed.dank u wel. Tot zienz
29 juni, 2019
I found the course very helpful. I got to organise my knowledge of grammar, speak a lot and in general get my Dutch in shape good enough to start using it in more than just restaurant and shopping situations.
29 juni, 2019
Ik houd van Kickstart. Die is een goed schoon.
29 juni, 2019
The lessons are fast but generally possible to follow. You learn a lot in a short period of time. Very small groups and dedicated teacher as well!
29 juni, 2019
Goede cursus maat, locatie end tijd. Ik heb 2 jaar geleden A2 genomen. Deze cursus is heel goed te herhalen. Ik leerde ook nieuw dingen. Ik hour mijn medecursist en docent.
29 juni, 2019
Meestal goed. Maar better meer tijd voor leren, luisteren, spreken, lezen en begrijpen.
23 mei, 2019
I learnt a bunch from this course and feel more confident reading, speaking and understanding Dutch. The teaching and interactions/conversations in class were the strongest parts. I am not the biggest fan of the book (Nederslands in gang) as it can be a bit light covering some of the theory without the additions from class.
As a heads up to others, with the homework this course has a large work load, so you need to have the time to invest to get the most out of this course.
3 april, 2019
We have had a erfect teacher
3 april, 2019
I'm teacher was the best and she is /was very helpful!!
3 april, 2019
The teacher and facilities of kick start is great.

It was a great group, we've learned a lot but also had a lot of fun!
3 april, 2019
What a wonderful experience I had with Kickstart!
The class matertial was relevantly chosen to help you with your daily life in the Netherlands.
3 april, 2019
I always looked forward to coming to Dutch because I knew the class would entail lots of laughter and positive energy that made learning fun. Overall the teacher did a wonderful job of facilitating an environment in which students are not hesitant or scared to participate--the atmosphere was very inclusive.
3 april, 2019
DAT was fantastisch!! Ik heb dat zoveel geniet! Besonders ervaring!! :)
3 april, 2019
It was a great course and overall learning experience. Dynamics of the group worked well because and the teacher was fantastic. Sanne made classes fun and I genuinely enjoyed coming to the class. Keep up the good work and thank you.
3 april, 2019
I'm very happy with the course. I feel I have greatly improved my understanding of Dutch grammar and vocabulary through my time in Stepping Stone I. Sanne did a wonderful job of adjusting to our needs and answering any additional questions, as well as contributing to our knowledge and understanding of the Dutch culture.
3 april, 2019
I have improved my Dutch very much. This class is fast for me, but I can still follow the course.
28 maart, 2019
I really enjoyed the course. It was quite challenging, with a lot of material and homework, but this is what I wanted. Our teacher struck a good balance between moving the class along and making sure to answer questions.
28 maart, 2019
Very good experience. Learnt a lot and teacher was very helpful.

I enjoyed my experience at Kickstart. The teacher was very engaging and I liked having the Kickstartnet supplement at home.
28 maart, 2019
I am absolutely satisfied
28 maart, 2019
I had a great experience having Jeanine as a teacher.
28 maart, 2019
Happy with the course
26 maart, 2019
The 2.5 hour lessons are very long. 2 hours are much better. It would be good to have longer access to kickstart.net than just a week following the lesson. Suggest a minimum 6 months.
More options for worked excercises in the handout, I noticed they dropped off after chapter 9.
26 maart, 2019
I enjoy the lessons and I want to continue with SS2 level. But I want to go early class if it's open.
26 maart, 2019
Good experience. I would appreciate if you would not cut off immidiately our access to KICKSTART.NET as you did for the Starter pack course. We have one year access to Coutinho and we should have access to your webpage to be able to practice afterwards.
26 maart, 2019
The tempo is very good and so is the material, however the 2h30m lessons are too long for two reasons. One, it is a lot of material to cover and effectively remember. Two, if a lesson is missed it is quite difficult to catch up with all the new material that follows from the next lessons.
26 maart, 2019
It has been a great experience to learn Dutch with other expats. The teacher is very understandable. Highly recommended overall
26 maart, 2019
Very good course, I have learnt a lot and the teaching standard is good.
26 maart, 2019
Good course with a good teacher.
26 maart, 2019
It was a great experience where I learned a lot and where I could express myself. I had a lot of fun and had a great group of people as well as a great teacher.
26 maart, 2019
This course is my second course in Kickstart, as what I observed its kinda similar to the previous experience but I think this course really help me a lot more.
I hope that next time you will give more exercises like talking and or corrections on how we pronounced the words.
I really like the cleanliness of the classroom and WC.
26 maart, 2019
Overall the expierence was fun and I enjoyed it a lot. It was great to meet new people and also learn a bit about other cultures other than Dutch. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. Thank you (=
26 maart, 2019
It was a great experience where I learned a lot and where I could express myself. I had a great group of people who I worked with and had a great teacher. Overall was it fantastic.
26 maart, 2019
A big well done to Odett!
26 maart, 2019
My experience was great.I enjoyed everything and I have learned a lot. The staff is very friendly.
26 maart, 2019
The textbook used is entirely in Dutch which makes it more of a struggle than it needs to be. I spent a lot of time using google translate just to understand the instructions in exercises.
25 maart, 2019
Great course. But could not spend time for practice.
25 maart, 2019
I had a good experience. Eva is a very good, caring and responsible teacher.
25 maart, 2019
Good experience.
25 maart, 2019
I enjoyed the classed and learned a lot
23 maart, 2019
I'm satisfied. It was very useful course for language learning!
23 maart, 2019
my first course with the school went well. I expected more practical tasks and more focus on speaking rather than learning words and reading texts. The structure, classrooms and teachers are fine. The program can be improved and tailored for individuals needs.
23 maart, 2019
The program is good to cover baisc grammer and words for daily life in dutch society.
23 maart, 2019
I am very happy and satisfied that I have taken my course here in your school.
23 maart, 2019
Excellent experience. Very competent and accomodating teacher. I was extremely busy at work during this course, yet the teacher was undertanding and motivated me to pick up my level and now I feel confident.
23 maart, 2019
Good learning support both book, handout and teaching method
23 maart, 2019
Very good teaching skills. Good explanation of grammar.
15 maart, 2019

Great teachers! Do personal, much more effective!
19 december, 2018
The experience was very good, made me feel more confident to speak Dutch. the grammar is emphasized and that is very important in this level. Teacher and classes are quite nice and interesting, I recomend it.
19 december, 2018
I had so much fun. It was profesional as well. Usefull and would recommend it.
19 december, 2018
very useful!!
19 december, 2018
It was a good Dutch classes! Highly reccomend to beginers.
18 december, 2018
The teacher was wonderful and I enjoyed her classes. I wish though that there was more time to review each of the lessons, especially the grammar. It would have been nice to have more extra exercises in the handout for review.
18 december, 2018
I find my experience with Kickstart Language school to be very educational and fun. Have enjoyed thus course and would recommend it to anyone. Great staff and environment.
18 december, 2018
My experience here was really great I enjoyed it very much and I learned extremely a lot.Dank je wel ! 😀😊
18 december, 2018
I had a great time, was always exited to go to my weekly classes.
Very week I learn something new, that I could use on a daily basis.
Loved that we could have "speaking" exercises, and no one judged you on how you sound and if you made mistakes.
18 december, 2018
The course was done professionally and in a matter that everyone can understand. I really enjoyed it and I improved my Dutch pronunciation and vocabulary. I am really happy with the outcome of the course!
18 december, 2018
It was a lot of fun, I learned a lot. Everyone was very nice and our teacher made learning easy and very enjoyable.
18 december, 2018
It was a really nice experience. Teacher was really friendly and tried to make us understand.
18 december, 2018
Fantastic teacher - Maarten
13 december, 2018
I found the course content is very unique and the teacher capabilities for teaching are very rich
13 december, 2018
I have very positive experience. The lessons were conducted in very diverse way, they were interesting and comprehensive. The teacher was very helpful and positive.
13 december, 2018
The lessons helped me a lot.
It was very useful and wonderful.
13 december, 2018
I really enjoyed the course. Kathleen is a great teacher. We learnt a lot and had lots of fun.
13 december, 2018
It really helped me to understand better the sintax and the basic grammar of the language. I liked the course andI found it challenging but with a good rhythm and consistency
13 december, 2018
It was a good group, homogeneous and the teacher did several different exercises to make us improve our Dutch and feel more confident, although I still think the language is difficult specially to pronunce the words
13 december, 2018
The first room was by far too small
13 december, 2018
Very interactive and nice people. Was a fun way to learn Dutch.
13 december, 2018
Intense course. Exactly as expected. Martin is an excellent teacher.
13 december, 2018
Need intensive course for us
13 december, 2018
It was good course and teacher was so patient and kind to the students.
13 december, 2018
We need a little bit more practice. A lot of information in short time that requires internalization.
13 december, 2018
Good class Site, enough possibilities for everyone to speak. Recommendation for German speakers to Start with SS II is correct (I unfortunately didn't have the time to prepare)
10 december, 2018
Very satisfied. Encouraged and eager to learn more. Excellent teacher and progress of lesson just right for my level of knowledge and language understanding. Happy to recommend and look forward to the next course and keeping upnthe momentum from this fine course. Thank you and thanksnto Jeanine.

10 december, 2018
It was a very positive experience. I have learned a lot .
10 december, 2018
I really enjoyed learning from the course, I also had a lovely teacher, who was willing to help me whenever. (Jeannine) . I would also had preferred if there was some kind of test at the end, so I could test my knowledge.
10 december, 2018
I liked it very much.
4 december, 2018
The structure and material are effective. There are a lot of extra activities a student can use to help enhance their experience. The small class experience is nice unlike that of inburgeringcursus. The instructor is helpful with makingnsure students understand the material before continuing the lesson.
There are opportunities to make up a missed class if there is space available. I would highly recommend this program.
4 december, 2018
I had also starter pack before stepping stone1. In both course covered my expectations. During the curses I reliased if I have topic from real word, the curse will be more efficient. Maybe for following curses it is good idea to increase daily life examples.
We also worked with Erica and we have clicked with her methodology I am so happy to work with her.
Thank you very much for everything.
4 december, 2018
I really enjoyed the course and it provided me with the right places where I can go and find what I am interested to learn. It is a good basis, but I wish there were more materials like readings or listening that the teacher would have time to follow up on. It is quite a lot of material that we have to go through during the class, so not really a lot of time for conversation or more listening exercises.
4 december, 2018
I have a good experience in the course
3 december, 2018
Het was leuk. De cursus is goed en de docent heeft het goed uitgelegd voor onze. Ik zou het voor iedere een wie Nederlands willen leren voorstellen.
3 december, 2018
Ik vindt deze lesse super leuk, Dat is ook niet moeilijk om het Nederlands the leren, En jij leer ook om met ieder een te praten in het Nederlands.Mijn docent zijn het beste
3 december, 2018
It is a nice course. The only thing to improve is maybe for the teacher pay more attention to our mistakes while the students are speaking. Tell their mistakes and ask to repeat our sentences again until it's grammaticality correct.
3 december, 2018
I have learned a lot and the lessons were always fun!
3 december, 2018
Efficient and fun
1 december, 2018
Good experience with Kickstart through the starter course and Stepping Stone I. The increased emphasis on speaking and writing was very helpful.
1 december, 2018
I love coming and learning Dutch, my only comment would be that the online home work is a bit outdated, it can be updated more for example I would recommend cheking the Dualingo app, it is way more interactive and fun.
1 december, 2018
This course gave me opportunity to learn a lot grammar and vocabulary. The teacher was very motivative and I liked the friendly atmosphere.
1 december, 2018
This is my second time in Kickstart School. Always I am very happy to learn with you.
1 december, 2018
I had a really nice time during the course. I learned a lot and would like to continue with a next course to improve my Dutch even more.
1 december, 2018
Excellent exposure and introduction to the Dutch language
1 december, 2018
Lots of real and useful conversation/subject matter. Helpful specifics, easy to approach teacher and try new things.
8 november, 2018
De cursus was heerlijk
8 november, 2018
Geweldig
8 november, 2018
Well explain, complete, take time to explain our mistakes and why, very good teacher
1 november, 2018
Great course, vocab revision at the beginning of each class very useful. Online learning platform helpful
1 november, 2018
I am extremely happy with this course. The teacher, pace, and quality are superb. Excited to do the next level!
1 november, 2018
I had a very enjoyable experience. My teacher Kathleen was very helpful and patient and I had a great group of people in my class. I would recommenced Kickstart to anyone wanting to have a fun time learning a new language.
1 november, 2018
It's been really exciting, and in a very good environment.
1 november, 2018
IK hebt mijn tyd by Kickstart heel leuk gevonden.
31 augustus, 2018
Professor Paul was incredible patient and resourceful.He answered all my questions and gave me ideas to better understand what I was studying. I still have a long way to go and I am sure his teaching will help me move on. I truly appreciate his support. He is the best instructor I ever had.

The course is really intensive and it takes a lot of commitment and energy for it. If you really want to learn and you have time, you should do it.
18 augustus, 2018
It was a very intensive course and required a lot of time and effort. It is somewhat fast and overwhelming at times but it is worth it at the end. I enjoyed the learning and the whole experience at Kickstart. ChiMei is a great teacher, she is energetic and enthusiastic and made this week fun. Thank you!
18 augustus, 2018
I had a great experience. Teacher in the course is energetic and positive. Liked it and will definitely recomend KickStart!
18 augustus, 2018
Intensive course with high load of grammatical and nice course environment.
18 augustus, 2018
It was really helpful
But you need to really study at home and practice a lot
Teacher was really great also
18 augustus, 2018
It was a very good course. It is very intensive and with a lot of grammar and vocabulaire, the positive and dynamic energy of the teacher was essential to keep the pace of the course. The lesson materials (book, handout and online platforms) are very useful to practice, reinforce the lessons and continue with the self-study. I am very happy and satisfied with the course, I can feel the progress now. And I appreciate the coffie, cookies and icecream too!
18 augustus, 2018
Although it was a very hard week, but it was very well prepared.
18 augustus, 2018
The erperience was amazing. The trainer made it comfortable and easy to understand with fun filled and practical exercises

I really enjoyed this course. Pascale was an excellent teacher!
28 juli, 2018
Great course!
28 juli, 2018
I spent two weeks here so far from beginner till A2 level. It was difficult but worthwhile. I can hold a chitchat with Dutch people on the street, it feels really good. I would recommend doing the intensive course and you can always leave if you didn't like the first lesson! :)
28 juli, 2018
Very good intensive course full of speaking and grammar exercises
28 juli, 2018
Kathleen is a fantastic and enthusiastic teacher who makes leaning Dutch interesting, interactive & fun. She is very patient, kind and helpful. She has really helped accelerated my understanding of the Dutch language. Wish she would be my teacher for stepping stone 2!!
28 juli, 2018
Het was fantastische! Hier kun je veel leren en het nooit saai is!
28 juli, 2018
The whole experience was great. Very well organized and Kathleen is a great teacher. Everything she explained was clear and she is very patient. Thanks a lot!

It is a wonderful to learn Dutch at Kickstart. The teachers are hands-on with the students and everyone can ask questions freely and practice a lot during the class.
9 juli, 2018
Interesting progresses made using more Dutch than English
9 juli, 2018
It was great, I have improved a lot.
9 juli, 2018
Good experience with a good teacher and a good set of students

A nicely structured course, everything is understandable, the teacher is kind and willing to help with any problems and question students might have. All of the course materials came in handy during the lessons and useful in the daily life. Haartelijk dankjewel!
5 juli, 2018
Well where can I start..
It was very "gezellig" and no one judged the other.. We helped each other when needed and talked a lot about the course! The teacher went out of her way to make it better and fun for us.. :)
I will recommend Kick Start to anyone that wants to learn the language!! Being part of the class was so much fun!! :)
5 juli, 2018

5 juli, 2018
Good doucent en good school
5 juli, 2018
I've a good experience but it was really hard this course for me to follow. But just because its a hard language to understand
5 juli, 2018
It was a great learning environment and I really enjoyed Maarten as the teacher. I would have preferred to practise morensoeaking but I understand that it is difficult to focus on that at this level. I was satisfied with the course and the company.
5 juli, 2018
Enjoyable,fun and gezellig atmosphere to learn Dutch with a nice teacher
5 juli, 2018
Very good and positive experience.
4 juli, 2018
I really enjoyed the course and improved my Dutch a lot!The atmosphere was great and the instructor presented information in very easy and interesting manner.
4 juli, 2018
the cursus really helped to get settled in the netherlands. espevially for germans stepping stone I is great as a start because you can easily catch up with the grammer and get used to the language. also nice to meet people!
4 juli, 2018
It was good but I find 2.5 hrs a bit too long.
4 juli, 2018
I've had a very pleasent experience with the kickstart school. At first i thought it would be very challenging for me, but we always worked at a pace that was comfortable for everyone and it became less challenging with practice over time.
4 juli, 2018
I have had a good experience following a Dutch course at kickstart school. Everything has met my expectation. The dynamic is good. The size of the class is very good.
4 juli, 2018
good quslity learning experience, sharp and to thd point learning content
3 juli, 2018
I've learned so much and I enjoyed every lesson. It helped me through everyday.
3 juli, 2018
It was a nice experience! Lots of speaking, which crutial. I learnt a lot of new grammar rules. Maarten was always answering our questions and explaining "tricky" rules. The atmosphere was very positive and friendly. Maybe it would be nice sometimes to have written tasks or tests during class. Thank you!
3 juli, 2018
Very well led, experienced teachers that also make lessons enjoyable. A good balance between language and learning about Dutch culture. Also a good balance between writing, reading and speaking. Finally, they are open and willingto adapt to specific requests from students (for instance, we asked for more speaking exercises and the teacher quickly adapted). Overall a positive experience.
3 juli, 2018
Open atmosphere, interesting and various material
2 juli, 2018
A nicely structured course, everything is understandable, the teacher is kind and willing to help with any problems and question students might have. All of the course materials came in handy during the lessons and useful in the daily life. Haartelijk dankjewel!
2 juli, 2018
The teacher was very clear an helpful. The additional online materials , provided by Kickstart were excellent, and provided a lot of interesting and fun information
2 juli, 2018

2 juli, 2018
Very pleasant experience with friendly straf
2 juli, 2018
Thanks to Kickstart I have improved my Dutch considerably. It has helped with my work experience in the Netherlands.
2 juli, 2018
The teacher is very professional and encouraging!
30 juni, 2018
Stepping stone one covered a lot of grammar and speaking exercises which helps greatly in understanding and developing confidence in Dutch. The class went on in a fast yet comfortable pace and the teacher was very helpful. I definitely recommend this course and school!
30 juni, 2018
Good pace of classes and i liked practising grammar by speaking with classmates.
30 juni, 2018
Alles is heel goed geweest.
28 juni, 2018
I'm very happy with the course! My Dutch language skills have greatly improved in the last two weeks and I've gained more confidence with speaking.
28 juni, 2018
Very good I wished there were more times available for follow up courses so I could continue classes immediately. I would need more evening classes and ideally twice a week.
28 juni, 2018
Administration was spot-on with placing me in the right course and the classes were engaging and fun!
28 juni, 2018
Very good course. Make sure you do your homewerk
7 juni, 2018
Maarten was a fun, engaging teacher.
28 mei, 2018
In heb viel geleerd :)
28 mei, 2018
Ik vond deze curses heel goed! En mijn docent Kathleen was fantastische!
28 mei, 2018
I enjoyed every class! We had a small group we talked a lot and practiced a lot. I really feel the progress!
28 mei, 2018
Great course! I liked everything about it.
8 mei, 2018
The course is fast and requires fast focus. It could do with some repetition rather than a single pass over material.
12 april, 2018
Aap not mies
11 april, 2018
Ik heb goed ervaring gehad.lk heb veel goed Nederlandse geleerd.
11 april, 2018
I am very happy with my Dutch course at Kickstart. I have studied several other languages at other schools but I have never made this much progress in just nine weeks. The lessons are well planned and structured, the teacher pushes appropriately and answers all my crazy questions that arise each week, and the small class size is really nice. I have already enrolled for the next course!
9 april, 2018
I had a great time doing the course and also improved my dutch how I wanted to.
9 april, 2018
Ik vind de cursus heel interessant, maar been beetje langzam. De docent heeft de hoofdstuken heel duidelijk gepresenteerd. Ik vind de handout heel nuttig. Ik zal de naast cursus hire doen.
9 april, 2018
i am very satisfied with a course. i can see my improvements.
9 april, 2018
My Dutch has definitely improved and I feel more comfortable speaking Dutch with others. I was surpsied how much I learned in just 5 weeks!
9 april, 2018
Good course
5 april, 2018
Our teacher Erika is very smart and professional teacher. All our group loves her very much.
5 april, 2018
It was very nice courses . With a dynamic teacher and motivated students. The rhythm is still quite intense and it is difficult to follow perfectly every lessons.
One thing nice to do would be to spend more time each lesson on practising on older content because we tend to switch from one subject to another quite fast.
5 april, 2018
I am satisfied but I wish we had more speaking exercises.
3 april, 2018
good class I would take again
3 april, 2018
good experience. nice and prepared teacher.
3 april, 2018
great teaching, course materials a bit confusing at times.
29 maart, 2018
I very surprise to the teacher and the lesson is nice and friendly. I learned more information about the courses and if I don't know they very much welcome to help 😊
29 maart, 2018
Good textbook, simple and not full of useless pictures. Liked the clear listing of homework and subjects for each lesson. Topics covered were useful. Good level of repetition in the lessons. Teacher good, clear and knowledgeable and friendly.
29 maart, 2018
Good course materials and nice teacher.
28 maart, 2018
Good quality teaching and most of all administration availability, kindness and efficiency!
28 maart, 2018
I really enjoyed the classes and our teacher. We went at a really good pace. There was enough focus put on all aspects of our learning.
28 maart, 2018
I am really glad to attend my Dutch lesson, the enviroment is nice and the teacher explains very good and easy when the subjects are difficult
26 maart, 2018
I have previously taken French lessons with Alliance Franchise and much prefer the Kick Start set up. My class had just 5 students which gave us a good student to teacger ratio. I would have preferred more talking time,but I'm told that comes in the next course.. The administration has been really effiecient and the teacher was very nice. I enjoyed the course and have recommend the school to others interested in learning Dutch.
26 maart, 2018
I have been in two kickstart courses and I absolutely love them! I have learnt so much.
26 maart, 2018
Kickstart Dutch courses are of great help for learning Dutch from scratch; has good balance between grammar and speech.
26 maart, 2018
I generally very satisfied with the course. I find Eva a very skillful teacher who is always ready to help.
However, I would have liked to practice a bit more on pronunciation
26 maart, 2018
Goed, would recommend
26 maart, 2018
It was a nice course. It will be great if there's an app like Duolingo
26 maart, 2018
It was great
26 maart, 2018
I'm really satisfied.
24 maart, 2018
I was very fond of the instructor (Fokelien) and the course in general. A lot about the coutinho exercises (online) can be improved though. The lessons focuse on practical daily usage of language but also covering enough grammar. Will continue with the next course :)
24 maart, 2018
Thank you very much Fokelien for your high enerjie and good relationship.
24 maart, 2018
i have in other schools and definite this school is the best to learn ducth
22 februari, 2018
Very detailed and informative. My proficiency in Dutch has improved. Learning the advanced technicalities of the language was fun and challenging.
22 februari, 2018
Good interactive course
22 februari, 2018
Lots of material to work and practice with. Fun class although slightly difficult and very intensive, got to trust the process. Will be interested in continuing on to the next level.
22 februari, 2018
My experience was quite good, the course content is quite good. However, I found the course quite heavy on crammer, I understand that is important in level A2.
22 februari, 2018
I had a great experience leading Dutch with Christine and I believe I now have the Dutch skill required for everyday life.
22 februari, 2018
I find 24 hours too short to go from one level to the next one. Also the price is a little bit high for just 24 hours. The distribution of the chapters is confusing. I think I would have benefited more if I had one chapter per lesson. I also do not get why we only have one week access to the platform after we are done with the course. I would have appreciate it if we have more time to revise the course after it is finished. The teacher is very good and explains everything very clearly therefore I am interested to take more courses if they were with her, Mrs. Fokelien Kamstra. Thank you.
22 februari, 2018
The course was very helpful to improve my Dutch! The only pity is that you can't use kickstartnet (the interface) to practice after the end of the course.
22 februari, 2018
I am very happy with our Stepping Stone 1 Course..Our teacher Fokelien is the best. I have learned a lot. I look forward to the next course. Thank you Fokelien.
22 februari, 2018
no comment, however the teacher is the best!
22 februari, 2018
beautiful lessons en very very good teacher
22 februari, 2018
why we dont have access to the plateform after the course for a long times
22 februari, 2018
This class really helped my ability to start to speak Dutch. The speaking and writing exercises develop the confidence needed to say simple sentences. Kathleen is a great teacher, and wish I can continue with her. Thanks Kickstart for great language programs and learning environment. Cheers
22 februari, 2018
I attended the semi intensive course. It was good but you really need to work a lot in house. There is so much stuff in every lesson with grammar and vocabulary and if you work or don't t have enough time it s hard to follow and it s better to follow once a week course.
22 februari, 2018
I feel I can speak to people in Dutch now - and understand lots, too. Thank you - this course made a real difference!
22 februari, 2018
This level made me like and understand the language more.
22 februari, 2018
In my opinion this course can be provided over two months (I.e. 8 weeks) instead of one month only, with the same weekly frequency (I e. two classes a week for two months). This is going to help students to practice the language properly because at A2 level we cannot practice the language outside the classroom.
22 februari, 2018
I found Stepping Stone I with Kathleen really helpful! It focuses mainly on grammar which for me is the most difficult part to understand. I can now understand and read a lot more than one month ago and feel a lot more confident having basic conversations with locals. I especially enjoyed Kathleen's classes, she is a great teacher!! After completing the beginners course and now SSI I will definitely be continuing with the next course to further improve my Dutch skills.
22 februari, 2018
The provided book was inadequate for my needs. While I found the docent quite enjoyable the lack of support from the book made the course very difficult.
22 februari, 2018
I was imparted a lot of knowledge in relation to Dutch language and I have learned it well. The only suggestion I would give isfocusing more and more on practising grammar which requires more time. Therefore I would highly recommend increasing the numbers of lessons. Good luck
19 december, 2017
I was not totally satisfied by the textbook, but the teacher (Christine) was very professional. She did really her best to cover the imperfection of the book. Thanks to her I managed with the course.
19 december, 2017
I found that the school and classes were very helpful to me. It really improved my Dutch and the classes were of high quality helping me to reach my goal. I now know the basic Dutch and have a better understanding of the language. The classes gave me the basic knowledge of the language and helped me speak to my host kids better. Lastly I really did enjoy the classes while studying and that is a bug bonus.
19 december, 2017
My experience at kickstart school has been good. I feel like I have more knowledge about the dutch culture and the language. I have a better understanding of forming dutch sentences. I feel like I could have used a few more hours of study to prepare for lessons. Being proactive is definitely key. The online exercises were user friendly but could be have a better English translation. I thought Dutch language was easier to get accustomed to because of my Afrikaans background. My teacher was great although sometimes I felt the explanation of exercises in the classroom could've been clearer.
19 december, 2017
This was a nice course to get some insight on the language Netherlands and also to speak it. I've learned quite much as I assumed that it would be very easy since my home language is Afrikaans, but the Netherlands have more grammar in place compared to Afrikaans. I'm happy with the results. Ik heb de liefste docent gehad!
19 december, 2017
The class helped me a lot with forming sentences in Dutch. I can definitely say my understanding of Dutch has improved a lot during the course. I liked the fact that I could ask questions if I didn't understand something and I would be helped right away. Would definitely recommend this class.
19 december, 2017
Really like the relaxed yet supportive environment. Course moves at a good pace. I look forward to continuing!
18 december, 2017
good pace and a nice balance between speaking and grammar. good atmosphere in the classes. i looked forward to each one.
18 december, 2017
kickstart school provides an engaging, fun and friendly environment to learn.
the teacher was great!
16 december, 2017
The teacher is very nice and takes time to explain well.
16 december, 2017
It was a good course.
14 december, 2017
Het is een mooie cursus om een inzicht in de nederlandse taal te krijgen en te spreken.
14 december, 2017
A gezellig experience, with an awesome teacher. i am really enjoying the dutch course.
Looking foward tp the next class
14 december, 2017
the class material has a good structure, easy to follow if you do your homework at time. it really needs a lot of time to prepare, but at the end it is worth it.
14 december, 2017
Good mix of listening, speaking and learning grammar.
14 december, 2017
Very good teaching, allowing us to feel supported with the brisk pace of the course.
14 december, 2017
it was very positive, i could increase a little bit my level but im still thinking the course is going to fast.
13 december, 2017
it was were nice and i love the speaking it know
13 december, 2017
it was helpful and katheen was very nice. i think the classes were a little bit too large, however for personal improvement, especially for a beginning class
13 december, 2017
I enjoyed this course very much, Kathleen was patient with us and made us so comfortable. Thanks again.
13 december, 2017
It was fun learning a new language and to meet new people. I hade fun and learned alot. I can now comunicate with the kids in nederlands and talk to dutch
13 december, 2017
amazing teacher very knowledgable and patiënt. great groupwork and other activities. Kathleen is briljant.
13 december, 2017
I really enjoyed the course. It helped me to understand the Dutch language better and to communicate easier with my host family and kids on a daily basis. Our teacher made it fun and interesting and that made me feel a lot more comfortable in the class.
13 december, 2017
I really enjoyed the course although some stages were though but it was good
13 december, 2017
The course was really nice , I think I should of taken the starter pack because of my difficultly with grammar but once I brought up my issue then it got solved out immediately and we focused more on speaking and reading. I would really recommended this school to everyone. Its comfortable and challenging!
13 december, 2017
I enjoyed my experience at Kickstart very much. The classes were fun and interactive, and the teacher was friendly and helpful.
13 december, 2017
The course is very good and I really like the course and the teacher here.
13 december, 2017
The course was comprehensive and the teacher was friendly.
12 december, 2017
In general it was good but more speaking exercises are needed. More creativity is needed to teach the language than just following the book and related online materials. For example, Watching short films together and having discussions afterwards, playing games, or organising cultural events where students can practice the language.
12 december, 2017
I had a great opportunity to practice mine Nederland's during the lessons.
12 december, 2017
Ik find de cursus leuk. Ik zal besgrijven voor volgende cursus.
12 december, 2017
It is pleasant and the teacher is very patient. I learnt a lot but I wish I had more time to finish homework and have homework explained.
30 november, 2017
i feel this course helps to build a solid basis for the beginners. i appreciated the rather faster pace of teaching. i feel the course also offers a good balance between grammar and building up speaking, writing ans listening skills.
30 november, 2017
I really enjoyed my time at kickstart school! Everybody was friendly and helpful! I had never expect that I could have learn that much within two weeks. Think definitely bout doing Stepping Stone II if my wallet allows it :)
btw: if you are German and you have zero previous knowledge but are good and willing at learning languages you can definitely begin with this course!
30 november, 2017
het is mooie cursus.Voor mij is belangrijk luisteren naar nederland taal te begrepen beter waaneer derlans mensen samen praten
30 november, 2017
I had a good experience with my course stepping stop 1 and I would to continue with kickstart for my future course to improve on my Dutch more.
30 november, 2017
I've learned a lot from this course especially the grammar. It helps me to improve my knowledge about the language and I am confident to practise Dutch in my daily conversation.
6 november, 2017
I would just like to add some things first. The first course I did (starterpack for beginners) was full of students and only me and two other people continued the course. In the last one (stepping stone) I know at least 5 people have commented that they do not have the interest to move on. People who like me, who did the course only because they wanted to, not by “obligation”.
So it's not just my opinion. It's something that my colleagues and I used to talk every week.
Even the school having an excellent structure, people of administration being kind, the teacher being REALLY a teacher (I can not say the same about the first one that I had), I would not recommend to another foreigner the course. ;/ Why?
First, because in the classes I attended had people with completely different levels of Dutch. So, at first, I went on a course that was for people who don’t speak Dutch at all and had people who already spoke. The level of class changes according to the students.
Second, many contents are taught per class. Yes, I know it's a semi-intensive course. But I imagine that you, guys, care about the quality of your service. So I do not think that you would be satisfied knowing the students can not learn all the informations that you give during class. Even if you request the extra 5h of study per week, we want to leave the class understanding what was taught and not needing to learn everything by ourself at home.
Third, teachers saying that the content is super easy does not make it any easier. Only discourages students from expressing their doubts.
My suggestion would be a course with fewer contents taught per class. I'm sure the use would be better. Teaching less content in a class but practicing much more these contents. Your student would know less content but would know with quality.
2 november, 2017
Stepping Stone I helped me improve and increase my Dutch level. It required much more work than the first module but it was all worth it. Kathleen was really nice and I definitely plan to continue with the next modules.
2 november, 2017
Course is good but need to be in more detail.
2 november, 2017
The course is thorough with the right pace and good study material.
2 november, 2017
I really enjoyed it. Will definitely come back again
2 november, 2017
Dank je wel
2 november, 2017
I enjoyed the class so much more. Kathleen is fantastic.
12 oktober, 2017
After a two -week intensive course I really see a huge improvement of my Dutch language. An important progress is that I'm no longer afraid of speaking with Dutch people. This course is energy-consuming but definitely worthwhile!
12 oktober, 2017
Very nice teaching environment! I have learned lots since the first class and our teacher Christine is really nice and good teacher!
12 oktober, 2017
I considered the course very useful. The material and the teacher fulfilled my expectations, They manage to teach in a very original, practical and fun way.
12 oktober, 2017
I really enjoyed the course
12 oktober, 2017
It was very helpful course and I would like to continue and participate in Stepping Stone 2
5 september, 2017
Not bad
28 augustus, 2017
This was the week when I began speaking Dutch. I loved Cárola. She was a superb teacher. She employed multiple ways of engaging us in speaking, reading, listening. Nobody was left behind and everybody had great time. Every grammar was clearly explained in English, all the rest was encouragement for us to speak Dutch.
That being said, my second week (stepping stone II) with Kickstart was not so delightful. With the new teacher no new words were written on the board unless specifically requested, grammar was only explained in Dutch, we basically just did exercises out of the book. It felt more like a tutoring session than a real lesson. It was very disappointing seeing how little progress everyone in the group has made - and hearing it being blamed on the "level of the group" (instead of trying to change ways of teaching the materials) did not help.
I must write it down in this review, because the school requests you to review them right in class at the end of the last lesson, which is not really ideal to describe a longer evaluation, especially when others are waiting for you, not to mention that it is not clear in that moment that what you are writing is actually going to be online (instead of being used internally). I did not appreciate that aspect either.
However, I would recommend the school, if you end up with the good teacher you have a good shot at beginning speaking the language!
19 augustus, 2017
Everything is perfect
19 augustus, 2017
Good challenge, good atmosphere , and right size
19 augustus, 2017
I really have a good experience in this course, the place is really good and the teacher is helpful.
19 augustus, 2017
Good environment and good teacher.
19 augustus, 2017
Dankjewel
19 augustus, 2017
I've come out with a better understanding of the dutch language. I'm eager to pursue further studies with kickstart.
22 juli, 2017
I had a positive experience. I enrolled in this class to achieve a better understanding of Dutch grammar and not only do I feel that I achieved that but gained more interest.
22 juli, 2017
The course is very well structured. The work in the classroom is linked to the homework which makes learning way more effective. Teacher Christine is a very good teacher. She gives extensive and easy explanation of the grammar rules. I believe that the knowledge that I have acquired this week is a very solid base for further learning.
22 juli, 2017
I enjoyed the course very much but it was very hard for e to do back to back classes that were both intensive.
22 juli, 2017
hard but with results
22 juli, 2017
Our teacher was fun and very helpful -I would thoroughly recommend her. I would have liked more drilling exercises on the internet so that we could really embed what we learned.
22 juli, 2017
This course surpassed my expectations. Our teacher, Erica was wonderful. Really patient and flexible to our needs. She also made it a lot of fun. I am moving on to the next level with Kickstaart as I am really impressed with the school and my teacher
22 juli, 2017
I found this course had an intense pace but this was expected. It seems like a good way to get started with learning and speaking Dutch and being less afraid to try.
22 juli, 2017
I am very satisfied with the training I got. Erica is very patient and indulging!!!
10 juli, 2017
Most of the time there problems with submission on answers on Kickstart net.
10 juli, 2017
I really enjoyed the course. The material is really good and well organised and progresses stepwise. I liked having Kathleen as a lecturer because she was kind and patient. The cookies and coffee was a nice break time snack. Thank you!
10 juli, 2017
The teacher was very professional and the atmosphere was very nice! I think that the materials were good and challenging.
10 juli, 2017
My second course in kickstart and is been great, the teacher was excellent and very approachable. Looking forward to continue
10 juli, 2017
There is a good student-teacher relationship.
1 juli, 2017
The whole experience was amazing. I learend so much. My teacher ChiMei is a wonderful teacher and she helps everywhere she can. Every lesson is diffrent, it is not always the same. At the end of each class you want to come back to the next one.
1 juli, 2017
The overall experience was great! Starting with a trial lesson in case the course is not suitable for you is a great option and offers flexibility. Our teacher, Chimei was instrumental!! She is one of the most engaging teacher i have had, always keeping a fine balance between fun and learning. She was always well prepared, providing us extra material, answering all our questions and supporting us along the way. She is a great teacher and i will come back for another course esecially if she is the teacher. Overally, a great course.
1 juli, 2017
ChiMei made this course really beneficial. Congratulations having her on your team
she is an excellent docent and made me loving learning the dutch taal
Her passion to teach and powerful learning skills made this class very successful one
I want to express my grattitude for being able to get this chance to learn from ChiMei
1 juli, 2017
adminitration -josine is excellent, i was too late for signing up a class but she called me straight away to discuss and she really listened and tailored it for me
facilities -good building and tea time but parking a bit of challenged
teaching - if there is a scale of 15 i will score chimei 15/15.she is excellent
1 juli, 2017
It was a wonderdul class! Our docent, ChiMei, is an absolute gem. I've taken various Dutch courses at different schools and can honestly say she is the best teacher I've had. I have learned so much and am totally motivated to continue with my Dutch studies.
1 juli, 2017
the teacher is excellent! this was the one reason I was so successful. the Kickstart net is not very good at times and I think it needs review. it is not very user friendly and the practice question set up is not too good. the classroom is very nice, and communication with the teacher were excellent. I think we should have got more chanc-e to sign up for the next course during the last lesson. I know there are follow up courses but Will need to come to the open day which is not ideal. signing up now would have been much better. I hope admin will also let us as a class request a course with the same teacher. a member of the class is going to e-mail about this. chImie' s teaching is fabuLouis in every way... I can not tell you how great she is!
30 juni, 2017
A very nice class and great teacher. Lots of chances to speak under 10 in the class.
30 juni, 2017
The wholecourse is very good
30 juni, 2017
The course helped me to improve my dutch but I wished in some more exercises and more examples about the perfectum, imperfectum.
30 juni, 2017
fun and learning at the same time. required a lot of time for studying to keep up, especially when we startdd to cover 2 chapters per week.
30 juni, 2017
Great experience
30 juni, 2017
enjoyed the classes very much but the last 4 lessons were reslly tough
30 juni, 2017
Overall enjoyed the course found the last 3 lesson werre by far the hardest to learn
29 juni, 2017
Excellent teacher. Lovely rooms The chovokate cookies are a fantastic touch!
Course materials are ok but could be much better. The most helpful grammar excercises are by far the ones in Coutinho, but don't always work to the students' advantage. For example, there is no way to self-check certain excercises, and for some others, if you check after entering each answer, Coutinho doesn't update the oversll score as you enter additional answers.
My biggest disappointment is with the book. It's so important to learn the rules well, but they are all in Dutch, at a time when one diesn't yet fully understand Dutch. So the Kickstart handout is useful, although it doesn't cover all the topics. The grammar sections in the book don't stand-out enough; the layout could be better. And it would be better to have cross-references : for example in the various sections dealing with modal verbs (p. 81 and 135) and the various uses of "zullen", which are covered in different parts of the book.
29 juni, 2017
I enjoyed and learned very much from this course, it definitively exceeded my expectations and I'm more than satisfied.
29 juni, 2017
l like this cours and the way of teaching is very good
29 juni, 2017
Heel good, ik ben erg tevreden.
29 juni, 2017
I recommend this course. I took starterpack for beginner and stepping stone 1. now I can read dutch and understand what it means. I am really satisfy with this course.
29 juni, 2017
do more spelling test
28 juni, 2017
Stepping Stone 1 was a useful course in my journey of learning dutch. I found the classes interesting and fun.
28 juni, 2017
enjoying, practical, leuk!
28 juni, 2017
We had 4 different teachers during the course which made the flow of the course not so good. Our last teacher was the best she really knows how to make the class interesting and fun.Also she has really good teaching skills and always made sure that we all understood everything. I wish she was our teacher from the begining.
28 juni, 2017
The course materials are good as well as classroom facilities. The teachers are helpful and friendly.
28 juni, 2017
I like alll the teachers we have. however, i feel SS1 is much higher level than startpack. i took so long time for my homework.
28 juni, 2017
very good and practical
28 juni, 2017
It was unfortunate that we had to have a few different teachers. However I learned a lot.
28 juni, 2017
very engaging, interesting course, I will definitively sign up for the next one
28 juni, 2017
Excellent course. Will continue with a free course at work, though.
27 juni, 2017
Ik vind dat heel leuk dankuwel
27 juni, 2017
This time I did not found time to do my homework because I've been very busy with family. I did not do well. But I will continue study dutch!!! Thank you for all your support!
27 juni, 2017
I have had an amazing experience learning Dutch via Kickstart, the classes were fun, exciting and educational simultaneously. It is a very effective approach of working in a group with sufficient one-on-one time too. I would, however, personally prefer the old fashioned way of paper exercises and writing down things, instead of net exercises. The teacher and class vibe were brilliant.
27 juni, 2017
Christine is super good.
Ik heb heel veel nederlands geleerd.
27 juni, 2017
I have really enjoyed my second course at Kickstart language school. The atmosphere in the classroom is very friendly, fun and inclusive. You don't realise how much you are learning, but you are learning!
21 juni, 2017
It was very helpful and fun.
21 juni, 2017
In summer it is a little bit hot.
22 mei, 2017
It is very progressive curse. I can feel that my dutch has been inprived .
22 mei, 2017
I found it informative while being fun and interesting. I learnt more than I thought I would.
22 mei, 2017
IK vind dit heel leuk.
28 april, 2017
The class was well organised every time in all aspects of studying new grammar, listening and speaking. The amount of homework was rather heavy and I couldn't finish without spending at least 1 hour almost everyday, but thanks to that, I think Dutch has got more familiar for me and I'm very happy now I can use some basic phrases and pick some words such as in letters or signboards etc.
8 april, 2017
I have been in other courses and in here in Kickstart is just the maximum I rank it with 5 stars. The teacher is very patient and explain very clearly. I really feel I have learned a lot witn a lot of grammar clarification.
8 april, 2017
I really enjoy the cource. It is well structured and there is enough time to explain each component.
8 april, 2017
dit cursus is goed
6 april, 2017
Kathleen was an excellent teacher. She made the learning process fun and easy to follow. In would be very happy to take another class with her. A bit more of review exercises (from past lessons) every day even for a short time, as we did in the last review session, would be I nice to add to the course
6 april, 2017
Prima docent. De les is heel goed. The teacher is responsible and accessible. Fun class experience.
6 april, 2017
Very good course with one of the best language teachers that I ever had, Kathleen did an awesome job. This course is a must, and for it is a game changer, as everything is much clearer now. I definitely recommend it.
6 april, 2017
This was my second course with Kick start and I really liked it. I learned a lot. Kathleen,our teacher was really great. I recommend it
6 april, 2017
I learned some very useful basics, classes are very informative.
6 april, 2017
The teacher was very good. So I totally recommend the course with this teacher
6 april, 2017
This course is for someone who really has some dutch background and really want to brush up their dutch language abilities. The course doesnt make u speak dutch fluently but it surely helps u speak day to day dutch and one is able to make structure easily. The course is really a recommendation for everybody who wants to get grammatical knowledge as well.
The teaching staff is very polite n helpful and really put their efforts in making the students learn the basics as well advanced info.
A thumbs up for the course n the teacher.
6 april, 2017
I enjoyed my Dutch lessons with the Kickstart School. Ms Christine is a nice, understanding and supportive teacher. She is rather humorous too and made the lessons fun and enjoyable. I like the friends I me.g. in this class too. We help and encourage each other to progress in our learning.
6 april, 2017
It is a really good school and nice atmosphere, small groups and good study material.
5 april, 2017
Really worthwhile lessons! I really enjoyed it. There was always plenty of learning material provided and the lessons were well focused on learning all aspects of the Dutch language.
5 april, 2017
I would like to have more grammar excercises.
5 april, 2017
It was nice but too fast, 2 chapters a day is alot, I have then to study 2 list of vocabularies a week which is not practical!
I don't recommend for this level and duration but maybe others are different that I don't know.
5 april, 2017
Ik heb de cursus veel geniet. Ik beveel het aan voor andere mensen. Ik heb veel geleerd en kan nu goed Nederlands spreken.
5 april, 2017
Really worthwhile lessons! I really enjoyed it. There was always plenty of learning material provided and the lessons were well focused on learning all aspects of the Dutch language.
5 april, 2017
I feel lost sometimes in the class. I did Beginners Class last year then I enrolled for stepping stone 1 straight after my beginners class. I feel the class is too advance for me or just that my classmates are not that beginners. It feels I am in B2 class.
5 april, 2017
Ik heb deze kursus leuk gevind. De dosent is vriendlijk en het de kursus goed uitgeleg.
4 april, 2017
I have loved the stepping stone 1 course, the staff at Kickstart are so friendly amd attentive and I looked forward to my lesson every week. The book has an excellent balance of reading, writing, speaking and listening and I couldn't ask for a better experience.
4 april, 2017
Christine is prima!
the course moved quickly but ive learned a lot, loved the focus on speaking.
4 april, 2017
I enjoyed the course, which was very useful for a dairy life in Netherlands.
3 april, 2017
Material was good and course was good. quite demanding, better not to miss any lesson as tempo is quite fast. wiill recommend the course. nice group and teacher.
3 april, 2017
It was very friendly and nice atmosphere which made learning Dutch fun. Heel gezellig!
3 april, 2017
i had really good time in the dutch course and i feel that i learned a lot. i would definitely recommend it.
29 maart, 2017
This was a great experience. I'm an Au pair from South Africa and it really helped me to understand and speak Dutch much better - truly a fun way to learn a new language!
29 maart, 2017
The teacher is very friendly and open. She was always willing to help and I felt like she would really take the time to answer my questions. The other students were also great people and super fun to work with! I learned a lot and I would definitely recommend this course.
29 maart, 2017
Ms. Carola Bosselaers is a wonderful teacher who really helped us in learning and understand the concepts and Grammar. The study materials and homework too helped us a lot. Kick start really has wonderful teachers. Thank you
29 maart, 2017
Fun and exciting way to learn dutch
23 februari, 2017
The lesson was pleasant and definitely improved my knowledge in the Dutch language. However, the workload was quite a lot and hard to complete every week. It felt that it was completed way too fast and required more revision courses. Grammar, vocabulary, and speaking exercises required to be revisited in class and due to the limited time, it never happened. I will continue in stepping stone II. Keep me informed
23 februari, 2017
I've been enjoyed!
23 februari, 2017
I am satisfied with the course, it was intensive but it gave us a good base to continue with our Dutch experience. Our teacher Carola was nice and helpful.
23 februari, 2017
i really did not liked the speed of the course. the amount of homework was not compatible with the time to do it. i now finsh the course with all the grammaticaal rules, but without the vocabulaire. that is not really good.
23 februari, 2017
a good foĺlow up to the starter pack course. a bit more intensive but a good learning experience. professional and experienced teaching in an informal and relaxed atmosphere.
23 februari, 2017
a good course with an inspiring teacher
23 februari, 2017
manh thanks
23 februari, 2017
het was een goede ervaring
20 februari, 2017
I have found the course very helpful and it has given me the confidence to start conversing in Dutch on a more regular basis. It is also a great platform to meet new people and practice speaking.
20 februari, 2017
It was a really useful course. I learned a lot.
17 december, 2016
ik ben zeer tevreden met de private nederlands les.
15 december, 2016

15 december, 2016

15 december, 2016
My experience was good, i enjoyed the course and I learned a lot
14 december, 2016
het is gezellig kursus
14 december, 2016
my experience overall was very pleasant, i learned so much about the dutch langauage. i am able to understand it and speak it easier now after doing the course, the course has helped me be more confident in my abilities to speak dutch. the lecturer was excellent at teaching us the language.
14 december, 2016
Some of the classes were challenging but in a good way. I picked up on the language a lot quicker since i started and can almost speak it fluently. i understand how to build my sentences and where and when to say what.
14 december, 2016
Really nice atmosphere and nice group.sometimes it was a bit too fast to follow. I Think i made a good progress.
14 december, 2016
it was really nice. the school is very professional and the staff are really friendly. I learng a lot and truly enjoyed the experience, the facilities are great and the cookies are amazing!
14 december, 2016
heel goed
13 december, 2016
Really nice curse and people. Good teacher! Problems were solved. Helpful excercises and group activities.
13 december, 2016
In general very good, but the teacher could have focused a bit more on the strengths and weaknesses of the individual students.
13 december, 2016
excellent, i will continue on the next level
12 december, 2016
great experience!
12 december, 2016
I really learned a lot in this course. From the beginning we had a good atmosphere and it was fun learning Dutch with Fokelien (our teacher).
12 december, 2016
very good!
12 december, 2016
it was a good lesson, Fokeline spoke a lot in Dutch which helped us umdrstand pronunciation. i would have liked it to be more intensive, more speaking, but we also dont have the necessary vocabulary to sustain a lenghty conversation. overall i enjoyed, except for the late hours.
3 december, 2016
i love the way of teaching and interactive communication in the class
3 december, 2016
i really enjoy and feel passion
i am always busy with other things but i dont feel stressful and i still feel positive about learnjng dutch and i like it more because the teacher is nice and considerable.
3 december, 2016
the course is well designed and the teacher is friendly. the class focuses on grammar and practicing speaking, which is nice. although the speed of the class was slow sometimes, it is mostly suitable for the level of the students.
3 december, 2016
The course was very useful and helped to increase my level. We took a lot of grammar and new vocabulary. However I'd prefer to practice more in speaking.
3 december, 2016
ik ben echt blij met de cursus Nederland,
de docent was heel lief,
ik wil graag met kickstart school door gaan.
3 december, 2016
quite ok, but hope more spoken practice
30 november, 2016
I loved every part of the course. It was not rushed and my course mates were just as focused as I was. Carola was an incredible tutor and made the learning environment fun. Thank you!
30 november, 2016
I enjoyed the course, the teacher was great
30 november, 2016

31 augustus, 2016
Monday and Wednesday too close between classes. Monday and Thursday is better.
31 augustus, 2016
Nice course but a bit too intensive for me.
31 augustus, 2016
paul is a very good and responsible teachter, i have practised dutch speaking and listening a lot with him in the class, very good experience
31 augustus, 2016
I like to do other course from Kickstart school.
27 augustus, 2016
it has been an intense week, I have leaent a lot of gramm af and it has been welk explained. the homework was heavY but was necessary to progress.a very satisfying course.
27 augustus, 2016
the course entirely met my expectations. i have learned how to build sentenses in a right grammatically correct way. more over i have learned how to use it when i speak dutch. this course was really an enabler for me - definatelly will recommend the school and a course to my friends.
27 augustus, 2016
The first three days were dry and the rest of them were quite good with more activities and the classes were made a lot more interesting
27 augustus, 2016
Carola is a wonderful teacher. She was very clear and so very kind.
27 augustus, 2016
I can say that the course was well designed and good amount of attention was given to each student. This course helped me a lot with grammer and the basics of the language. I would definitely recommend this course
27 augustus, 2016
Carola is a wonderful teacher. She was very clear and so very kind.
27 augustus, 2016
I liked the course a lot, good and efficient teaching, got what I expected! Leuk teacher and classmates.
20 augustus, 2016
The stepping stone I course was a great course and I enjoyed it immensely! I followed the intense course and learned so much in the span of 1 week. The pace was fast but never too fast and lessons were very well structured and organized. Christine is a wonderfjl teacher and explained everything clearly and in great detail. I highly recommend this course and Kickstart in gdneral.
20 augustus, 2016
This was an amazing cursus, i really learned a lot and being intensive helped a lot!
I am looking forward to start steping stone II!
20 augustus, 2016
I'm very satisfied with the course. The teacher was very nice and was fantastisch explaining the topics.
20 augustus, 2016

20 augustus, 2016
The course was definitely intensive, but possible.
20 augustus, 2016
het was een heel leuke ervaring
13 augustus, 2016
gezellig!
5 augustus, 2016
Learning Dutch with kickstart school was not a nice experience at the beginning. After 5 lessons the teacher was changes and the lessons transformed in useful and fun hours to spend learning dutch. Still, the first 5 lessons were more than loss of time. Thanks to Margarete for saving the course :)
22 juli, 2016
i really enjoyed the classes and had fun learning dutch! Renée is an excellent teacher and my dutch improved over this course
22 juli, 2016
i think my teacher is great.
22 juli, 2016
our teacher was excellent and made it fun to learn Dutch
22 juli, 2016
very positive and I definitely like Renee's teaching. I will continue my dutch course with Kickstart
22 juli, 2016
it was very interestung to go throgh intensive summier Dutch course, fun and full of learning. hp
22 juli, 2016

18 juli, 2016
overall very happy with Diane's teaching
9 juli, 2016
everything was good and fun
9 juli, 2016
Het is goed!
9 juli, 2016
everything is ok. experienced teacher with good studying environment.
9 juli, 2016
alles is goed
7 juli, 2016
Mijn ervaring van Kickstart was positief en zeer informatief.
mijn docent was erg behulpzaam en geduldig.
7 juli, 2016
sometime i felt lesson go faster but teacher was very nice.i needed to take time to follow.thank you so much.
7 juli, 2016
it was a good course. i found the 3 hours a bit too long but overall it was great. i felt a bit frustrated that perhsps i was not understanding that much but i was really happy to see that after just 4 weeks of following the course, i was able to follow a lot of conversations.
7 juli, 2016
positive experience
7 juli, 2016
it was good, but there was a lot to learn so it was a bit difficult
6 juli, 2016
in the begining i thought the teacher was speaking too fast and not translating too much, so i felt a bit lost. after some time i got used to the teacher and i think the things started to go better. maybe in the begining the teacher can try to speak more slowly, articulate better the words and translate a bit more to make the start de the course a bit more friendly
6 juli, 2016
Diane has been a great teacher who grasps the dutch language level of every student in class, and so she adjusts the pace of learning to suit everyone without going too fast.
she has also added additional exercises which suit the student's interest, such as the Lekker and Leuk exercise, Entoen website.
6 juli, 2016
I hope that there can also be some summer classes.
6 juli, 2016
It was intense in talking and making dialogues. We were encouraged to ask questions. I still feel that I do not know all the material that we have studied so far, but I guess it is because of the time limit and that it will iimprove with time. I liked it.
4 juli, 2016
the class is very helpful and the teacher is great and pushing us to learn more. definitely worth it!
4 juli, 2016
was very usefull. Felt very relaxed and confedent.
4 juli, 2016
I have enjoyed and learnt a lot, plus, my teacher knew exactly how to reach and deal with everyone's needs. I am so glad with the experience that I will move on to the next level with the same teacher (and hopefully some of my classmates will be there!).
4 juli, 2016
Extremely friendly environment with special attention to helping each student's difficulties and valuing their strenghts. For sure the best way to learn.
4 juli, 2016
it is a very interesting course
30 juni, 2016
very good relationsheap between the students and the teacher. It was a pleasure going to ghe dutch courses. Then I plan to continue ...
30 juni, 2016
positive. we only had 20 hours because 4 of us. a bit too crammed
30 juni, 2016
the course was very good. teacher explained the grammar until we understood it. the expectations from the teachers part was high so it pushes you to do your best.
30 juni, 2016
it woukd be nice to have an additional course to practice the lessons so we can integrate our learning into spoken Dutch. Perhaps a separate optional verbal class at this kevel.
28 juni, 2016
i have overall enjoyed the structure of the course and the manner in which the content has been presented and taught. mostly i found that my understanding of the language than my pears in other courses not with Kickstart. however i had on occation experinaced that some of the content was rushed and more attention was not always given to the struggling classmates,
ex the students that understood faster answerd before the other had a chance and it could have been regulated by the teacher
thank you
28 juni, 2016
I believe that the course is very good but I realize that once a week is not enough for learning, i think that you will be consider put more courses of 2 or 3 tims peer week. the rest was perfect
28 juni, 2016
it was a very good experience
i can now undestand dutch language and i dont feel bored in parties or with friends as i can interact also.
the teacher really help in this study
i would recommend
28 juni, 2016
I have learned so much with this course. It has really helped me understand the Dutch language more as well as helping me to speak it.
The classes were so much enjoyable while learning and to understand what you have learnt.
28 juni, 2016
It is a good learning experience. The teacher is very experienced and the course is well structured.
27 juni, 2016
The course is very refreshing.I will see you again in inburgering course in September.
27 juni, 2016
overall the course was good, but more time speaking would be beneficial. due to work problems i struggled to commit fully to the course and the homework.
27 juni, 2016
I enjoyed the course and the Docent was very helpful. I woud like to get more handouts with the grammer rules
27 juni, 2016
it was a pleasant class experience and lovely meeting new people. the course helped me understand some words which were unclear.
27 juni, 2016
Good course overall and enjoyable group.
19 april, 2016
I liked to go to dutch courses.I learned as wel and now everything it's more easier.It was the best choise!

This class was more difficult as the teacher was not very familiar with specifics of the language. As well, her familiarity with English was limited which made it difficult to explain how something we were learning in Dutch related to how we would be familiar with it in our common language. She could, of course, speak Dutch very well, but her ability to teach the language compared to my Starter Pack teacher was limited. i just started Stepping Stones II and many questions we have been trying to understand for a large part of Stepping Stones I was cleared up in just one lesson by our Stepping Stones II teacher. Overall, though, the class was, again, very good.

My only complaint is with the continho website and huiswerk component. The level of difficulty was much higher than the other exercises and course material and I often needed at least an example to complete the work. An answer key would also have been helpful. Overall the course was good and I would recommend it, though I wish a Stepping Stone 2 was offered on the weekend so I could continue without interuption. I am unavailable on Tues for the next course.

the book and materials are not very clear in grammar explanation. you need to receive more explanation from the teacher or better writen material.
the metodology of thr teacher is not good for me, is not clear enough, the lessons are not very diverse in activities and not a good follow up that engage with the learning process.
abput the infrastructure, please take in count cleaning more often the toilets, sounds crazy, but this is important for a good complete image of a company
16 april, 2016
good
, helpful
more speaking practise can be included
16 april, 2016
I had a lot of many experience like a new teacher and a new friends. We share different types of our cultures. Everything was well prepared. It was a good experience.
16 april, 2016
explaning the material is good but some time i still didnt understand the materiàl is quite hard to understand
16 april, 2016
it was a good experience being in an interactive class. however we would have appreciated more structure and emphasis on grammar rules.
16 april, 2016
mischien meer opdrachten en meer nederlands spreeken in het les en meer opdrachten voor het huiswerk
8 april, 2016
I had good experience while I was taking course Stepping Stone I. My teacher was really experienced in teaching and very helpful if we had problems in class.
8 april, 2016
This is the second time I could enjoy the course at Kickstart. The lessons are almost personalized, with few students and cosy enviroment. The teachers are professionals with great knowledge of the language and amazing teaching materials.
8 april, 2016
good beginners course.. I am comfortable with Dutch language but needed to learn grammar and vocabulary.
5 april, 2016
Great teacher and nice mates,I could enjoy the class.
5 april, 2016
I am very happy to join this course. I really enjoyed.
5 april, 2016
I really like course structure and material. Dank u wel!
5 april, 2016
i have very much enjoyed the course and would definitely do the next one but unfortunately i am going back to UK
5 april, 2016
i was absent to much
4 april, 2016
interessant klaas, grapig leraar. ik heb veel geleerd
4 april, 2016
Very useful to me and a lot of fun :)
4 april, 2016
i am satisfied ☺, but the course was relatively complicated
4 april, 2016
I really enjoyed the class with Paul, the classes were always a highlight of my week! The classes were always fun and just challenging enough. I felt very lucky to have Paul as my teacher!
4 april, 2016
I had a good time with kickstart!
But sometimes the students seemed to be on a different learning level, which made it a bit boring.
Paul is a great and funny teacher!
4 april, 2016
i had a nice experince, need to do more work at home by myself
4 april, 2016
The lessons were really interesting, good and also funny! Our teacher was explaining great and always helped us improving our pronunciation. Also tge website of our homeworks are helpful learnin dutch!
4 april, 2016
I really enjoyed my lessons with Christine, and the games/extra activities. The handout was more for general info rather than learning this time and was less used.
4 april, 2016
we had a small group so i really had to focus during the whole class and pay attenttion on what is going on. very friendly group, we really enjoyed it:)
30 maart, 2016
in stepping stone 1 there were a lot of new ppl who did not follow the previous course. sometimes i felt this is slowing down the speed of the lessons and i was a bit demotivated. i hope it will be better in the next course. overall i like tge teaching style.
30 maart, 2016
Quite interesting course. It is important the middle evaluations to assess the students expectations (the teacher adapted the course to our interests). It would be interesting to have speaking-focused courses to mainly improve orak expression
30 maart, 2016
it was good had a nice experience. i learnt alot of grammer and to perfect my pronunciation
30 maart, 2016
The lessons have many exercises and the teacher is always available to explain anything.
14 maart, 2016
Good cursus. ImpRoved a lot my comprehension and reading skills. Next step will be to speak.
14 maart, 2016
i was happy with the cursus
14 maart, 2016
Leuke oefeningen met Nederlands.
14 maart, 2016
fun and interactive way to learn a language
14 maart, 2016
Excellent learning
14 maart, 2016
Pleasant studying environment and very friendly personnel. Monday evening is not the best day for 2,5h class. I would rather do 2 times a week and shorter classes, would be easier to process information
14 maart, 2016
I met nice people and it was good to see that everyone struggles at the beginning and to see how we improve through out the course. The teacher also helped a lot and answered questions or kept explaining until we understood. I enjoyed it.
14 december, 2015
Very good and uncomplicated teacher, who also gives tipps for daily use. Always looking to get the right speed for everyone and not tired of explaining and answering questions. You're not feeling like a child beeing at school again ;)
Thank you!
10 december, 2015
I liked the fact the group was small.
10 december, 2015
this program has the best schedule for my timing. I enjoy discovering the Dutch language and culture.
10 december, 2015
Course was ok in very general terms. Much can be done in regards of the way teacher give classes.
THANKS
10 december, 2015
I like the course and the intensivity , it is just perfect for me - it is not too slow and too fast :)
9 december, 2015
the course was very useful
9 december, 2015
It was a fruitful and pleasant course to follow.
8 december, 2015
I found the additional exercises that we did later in the course useful and enjoyable, rather than just working through the book.
8 december, 2015
A wonderful experience all round. Very helpful teachers with lots of experience, and lots of support with extra online learning materials. Also lovely classrooms and facilities make for a very pleasant learning environment. I Thoroughly recommend Kickstart!
8 december, 2015
It was nice and perfect cursus for my Dutch language
8 december, 2015
I want answers in the internet courses.
There are some wrong answers as well.
7 december, 2015
It was a good course. I personally think it would have been better to have one book or workbook instead of both. Perhaps also a quiz each week to check our progress
Nonetheless ir was a good course.
7 december, 2015
Not bad course for beginners. It's my fifth language so I can compare courses. Its much more worst then courses in other countries but probably it's specific of courses in this country. Gpod everything. But it's not very interactive course.
6 december, 2015
I said 9 and not 10 because I can't comparate it's my first time.We learn in a good atmosphere, we can choose our own rythm, work more or less at home.
I just didn't understand when we write our own text trough counthino, who can correct it ??how can i have a feed back of my work? And why taking 30 minutes during our lesson to answer this? It is well done, only 10minutes are enough or before or after our lesson if we can. Anyway, the best answer: I look forward to coming back in january.
5 december, 2015
ik vindt dit courses heel nuttig.ik kan nu een beetje Nederlanrds taal spraken een schrijven.ik vindt dit cursus heel interessany.ik will doen verder cursubs.
2 december, 2015
Teachers are very friendly and willing to help us as much as possible. Very nice place to learn languages. If you want to learn and also have a nice time, I strongly recommend.
2 december, 2015
a good way to learn dutch
lekker!
2 december, 2015
Like it very much, very interesting
2 december, 2015
I never knew Learning could be so much fun. I have learned so much and I would recommend the school to other people.
2 december, 2015
I loved it
2 december, 2015
Instructor only followed the course book, more written assignments necessary, more tasks required to test the vocabulary and irregular verbs
2 december, 2015
Fantastic experience overall
2 december, 2015
Going to miss the kickstart school but mostly my amazing teached, Fokeline :)
30 november, 2015
Ik vind de cursus leuk!
30 november, 2015
Friendly teacher and good speed of learning. Good material. You should investigate some kind of flash card app with Vocabulary. Would be helpful and give us somethIng to do on our phones. 😊
30 november, 2015
It has been aa very good experience, the teacher is vert kind, patient and effechive.
30 november, 2015
I enjoyed being part of the course , I think it was the correct level for me. Although it helped me to improve my gramma r and vocabulary I think it should cover more grammar excersices and more practice in class about it.
30 november, 2015
Kick start net is niet so goet! Dit kan beter.
10 november, 2015
An enjoyable course, good teacher and nice group. I think we all made progress and now not only understand, but also feel we can speak some Dutch! Thanks
6 november, 2015
Good method and teacher
5 november, 2015
The teacher was very patient and understanding with the students which is really good especially when we needed more explanation. Like for me, a new language is very difficult to learn in just months but having the course with this Kind of teacher we had will help, motivate and encourage more students to learn in a good way And not a pressured way.
22 augustus, 2015
De docent is heel gemotiveerd. De cursus was interessant. Ik wil nu Nederlands spreken. Bedankt Angela!
22 augustus, 2015
The class provides a good foundation for grammar and spoken use. Individual vocabulary development is a personal commitment to bui pd it. I would suggest adding a good dutch/English dictionary to the required textbooks.
22 augustus, 2015
Good course to get your dutch going. Very well structured and a great and friendly atmosphere. Makes learning dutch a lot of fun.
22 augustus, 2015
IK vond de cursus heel interessant.
22 augustus, 2015
Very good course. Great teacher.
24 juli, 2015
I loved the course and feel my brain squeezed after this intensive week. Totally worth it and would like to continue my courses here.
The internet homework platform is very good but I suggest to put the answers immediately after doing each exercise.
24 juli, 2015
Great progres thank you.
24 juli, 2015
Excellent course and teaching. Good explanation of verbs and grammar and despite being intensive, it's a decent but challenging pace
24 juli, 2015
Will personally appreciate consice guidance on class exercise
24 juli, 2015
I enjoyed the course a lot, mostly the conversation parts. I also found the online platform great.
24 juli, 2015
Really intensive and really great
24 juli, 2015
Internet exercises could be better
8 juli, 2015
In general, i like the course because most of the material from the book is very practical for daily use and the level is okay for me, but my listening is not good, so sometimes, I felt a bit difficult to follow the entire class. And two hours and half is a bit too long.
8 juli, 2015
Overall positive, speaking exercises are good. Some deepening in grammar with more examples would be beneficial
8 juli, 2015
Very interactive course focussing on all aspects of the Dutch. Speaking and grammar are probably the best parts covered i n this course. If only I had time to do the homework I would benefit even more.
8 juli, 2015
Its a good course for beginners and looking foward for the next step
8 juli, 2015
Excellent teacher! :)
8 juli, 2015
A easy course and interactive. It helped me understand dutch people. I would recommend it to friends.
8 juli, 2015
The course was well defined,the teacher was very patient and approachable. Overall a very good learning experience.
8 juli, 2015
The course was really enjoyable. I really benefitted from the sentence structure explanation. Next time I would like some more talking in Dutch
8 juli, 2015
I was satisfied with course .
I think we need more exercises for homework or for the less . (Grammar)
8 juli, 2015
Enjoyed the interaction and lessons overall.
8 juli, 2015
Was awesome. The teacher was amazing and I've learned so much.
8 juli, 2015
Course was well designed and the staff also has good knowledge and the structure is also good, buy the book followed is bit confusing and hangouts could be more better but altogether it was good
8 juli, 2015
I had a great time and the school had a nice atmosphere.
3 juli, 2015
This course was a good challenge that helped me to move beyond beginner level and build more confidence using and speaking Dutch. The teacher, materials, facilities, and course as a whole was spot-on.For me, it was definitely worth following up on the Starterpack course by doing this one.
4 juni, 2015
The course was just fabulous and I have learned a lot.

If I would have to choose again I would again choose kickstart.
4 juni, 2015
I really enjoyed the courses I have followed at Kick start.. I really love the teacher. The teacher was very understanding and helpful. Thank you for everything.
4 juni, 2015
I feel more confident speaking Dutch now than I did before. I understand grammar better and have really enjoyed learning with a group. Het was leuk!
