You understand Dutch…
But can you really express yourself?

Not just small talk — but real conversations about topics like:
😴 Welterusten (sleep)
🎨 Wat is kunst? (art)
🐶 Mijn trouwe vriend (pets)
✈️ Goede reis! (travelling)

That’s what we do in the Keep Talking Dutch Conversation Club.
Small group (max. 4). Real conversations. A safe space to speak.

📅 Starts Friday 8 May
🕛 12:00 – 13:00 → 3 spots left

Last Saturday I started a brand new A1 beginners group at my home in Alphen a/d Rijn.
Welcome to Federico from Italy, Adelina from China, Ayan from India, Marcelo from Spain and Nancy from China (joining us next time!).

The course is called Dutch Connection—because learning Dutch isn’t just about grammar, it’s about feeling at home and connecting with people around you.

What I love most? Teaching around my kitchen table, with coffee, laughter and real conversations. In-person just feels more personal than online.

This course runs until the summer holidays, and in September a new round of in-person Saturday courses (A1 & A2)will start again!

Looking for two more participants to join!
Imagine learning Dutch at a kitchen table—not in a classroom.

A small group.
A relaxed atmosphere.
Coffee, conversation, and real connection.

That’s exactly what Dutch Connection is.
This isn’t a typical language course.
It’s a personal, in-home experience where you:

🌷Speak from the very first lesson
🌷Learn alongside other international professionals
🌷Connect, laugh, and share experiences
🌷Use mini whiteboards for interactive exercises
🌷Practice real-life Dutch, not just theory

Because learning Dutch feels different when you feel at ease.

🔸 In-person classes at my kitchen table
🔸 Saturday mornings or afternoons
🔸 Levels A1 and A2
🔸 Max. 6 participants

It’s not just about learning a language.
It’s about feeling comfortable enough to actually speak.

Do you want to build a life in the Netherlands… but still feel like a visitor?
You’ve moved here, you’re settling in —
but when it comes to Dutch, you’re not really using it yet.

🔸️Because everyone speaks English.
🔸️Because you don’t know where to start.
🔸️Because it just feels… overwhelming.

That’s exactly why I created my Introduction to Dutch course.

Not to memorise grammar rules —
but to help you start speaking Dutch in real-life situations.

✔ small group, supportive environment
✔ focus on speaking and listening
✔ practical Dutch you can actually use

So you can connect with Dutch people,
take part in conversations,
and feel more at home here.

📅 Starts: 9 April
⏳ Registration closes: 2 April
