Crescendo CVO

"I felt that I was not alone. The teachers took the time and looked for solutions with me. I was given an extra semester to complete the programme."

"Online lessons are pleasant and convenient for those with little time. The lessons run smoothly. They are basic courses, but I feel that I am learning, which is enjoyable. The breakout sessions offer the chance to collaborate with fellow students."

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

"Learning the language is my biggest challenge. I take Dutch lessons and participate in Hallo Nederlands activities to practice more, and I join conversation tables in Sint-Pieters-Leeuw. I have also completed a special language course for medicine. The support I receive there helps me a lot."

"My dream is to get my diploma and work in a care home. The fact that we also learn Dutch in this programme is an extra motivation for me."

“Dutch has very straightforward and simple rules, similar to English. I’m genuinely amazed and progressing quickly by doing all the exercises provided by the school.”

"After 27 years in Belgium, I decided it was time to learn French too. Not as a hobby, but because mastering all three national languages is essential for true integration."

"When I started, Spanish was just beginning to be on the menu."

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