An introduction to the Dutch language and an insight into life and customs in the Netherlands and Dutch-speaking Belgium (Flanders).
What will we cover?
The topics include exchanging personal information, describing people, and talking about everyday activities.
What will I achieve? By the end of this course you should be able to...
- give and ask for personal information
- ask how someone is and respond
- describe people
- talk about your family
- say what you do in your spare time
- say and understand numbers
- say what time it is
- demonstrate an insight into the structure, spelling and pronunciation of Dutch.
What level is the course and do I need any particular skills?
Beginners' course - no previous knowledge required.
How will I be taught, and will there be any work outside the class?
Our courses are characterised by spoken interaction and communication. Typical activities include pair work, group work, role plays and games. A range of resources will be used to support your learning including presentations, hand-outs, and audio-visual material. Homework is highly recommended to consolidate learning.
Are there any other costs? Is there anything I need to bring?
This course is based on the digital version of the book Contact! Nieuw and tutor’s own materials where needed.
Please note that this is a digital course book with a licence that expires after 14 months but can be renewed. The current cost of the Contact! Nieuw license is Eur49.50 which includes a coursebook and activity book.
Some students prefer hard copy books, and there is also the option to have a physical textbook + workbook + license which costs Eur84.95.
Please note that due to Brexit regulations, it is more expensive to buy a hard copy of the book straight from the Dutch publisher in the Netherlands due to shipping costs between The Netherlands and the UK.
For the purpose of this course, a license-only, digital book is sufficient.
