Professional Dutch

Language course Professional Dutch 1 and 2

Would you like to improve your skills in reading, writing, speaking and presenting in Dutch on a professional and academic level (B2+ / C1) and enlarge your (general academic) vocabulary?

The evening courses Professional Dutch 1 and 2 are semi-intensive courses (16 weeks, one class a week) for people who already have a good command of the Dutch language on B2 level (NT2 Staatsexamen II) and would like to improve their language skills for the purpose of career advancement or higher education. For example, you are expected to write formal letters, essays, theses, or to give a presentation.

The course content focuses on language use in a professional environment, such as in university research (PhD, post-doc) or when working in a business or civil society organisation. 

Reactions from participants:

  • “The businesslike and professional approach and relevant and current themes are on offer. There was sufficient attention for every student, tailor-made tutoring and a nice and open atmosphere in the classroom.”
  • “The teacher explains complex matter in a good and clear way, which makes him perfect for teaching Dutch at the highest level.”
  • “I found the lessons very professional as well as the topics that were discussed very interesting. The teacher helped me enormously with improving the Dutch language.”
  • "The classes had an atmosphere of openness and safety. There was nothing right or wrong, everything was allowed to be said. Therefore, we also debated a lot."
