Crescendo CVO

"It took me a while to find a suitable Russian course. I was specifically looking for an online class because I don’t feel very comfortable in a classroom with twenty other students."

"My goal is to find a job and provide my family with a stable life. The lessons help me enormously, and although my vocabulary is still limited, I make progress every day."

"The teachers are very helpful and show a lot of patience. They correct us all the time and repeat the material we struggle with."

"I feel much prouder. Now I follow all my lessons in Dutch, and I’m really happy about that!"

"After two years, she will have a diploma as a care assistant and speak Dutch fluently."

"The lessons are quite intensive: often, at the end of the morning session, we have to review our notes to reconstruct what we started three hours earlier. It can be a bit shocking to see how much material has been covered. Yet, few students drop out."

"The teachers are very supportive and extremely patient. They constantly correct us and revisit topics we struggle with."

"I enjoy interacting with people from very diverse backgrounds and cultures, and I like helping whenever I am called upon. It also gives me a lot of satisfaction."

"To all foreigners living in Belgium, I’d like to say: Go for it! Learn the language. It not only gives you opportunities but also makes you feel truly at home in this beautiful and diverse country.”
