Crescendo CVO

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

“I attended classes every day and obtained my diploma in just one year. I graduated in June 2025 and, in September, I started the Accounting Administration programme at Thomas More in Mechelen.”

"By combining work and study, I want to be a good role model for the children. At home, we increasingly speak Dutch; the youngest two attend a Dutch-speaking school, and my husband is now also learning Dutch at Crescendo CVO."

"My advice? Start learning Dutch as soon as possible. I waited a year and now I regret it; maybe I would be a year further along."

"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."

"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."

"Thanks to the French lessons from Anne, we’re truly growing. Their empathy, the content, and the warm learning environment make all the difference – we’re very grateful for that."

"Learning a new language requires time and effort, but it is a valuable investment. Crescendo CVO offers affordable 3-hour weekly classes—ideal for those learning for work, family, or personal motivation."
