Method / Philosophy

To talk is the first focus. Pronunciation, articulation, dialoguing and conversations are the keywords and key activities and only thén comes grammar.

Learning a language means far more than just memorizing words and learning grammar rules. It is first and foremost a physical activity which starts with just ‘doing the language’.

By using songs, language games, role playing, recent news events, daily dialogues and relevant stories we create a comfortable environment in which people feel free to work together. We focus on the individual students' needs and tailor our teaching methods accordingly.

This comfortable environment greatly increases a student's confidence to speak by 'trial and error'. This leads them to explore new associations and to venture further based on what they already know.

Daring to try is the first step, 'just do and don't think', and practice are the key. This practice takes place within familiar, personally relevant contexts - in class, at work, in shops and at home.

People learn better when they are having fun. In our classes people laugh at their own creative mistakes instead of avoiding them: making mistakes is an essential part of the learning process.

Let's be honest, unless you are four years old, learning a language  can be a hell of a job. But it is a lot easier when you are enjoying the process and we guarantee that, with the school for Dutch,  you will!
