Crescendo CVO

"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."

"I can only recommend this course to anyone who loves travelling and learning new things. The level is very manageable without much extra study at home."

"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."

"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.”

"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."

"The group was warm and lively, and most of us were learning Polish to connect with our partners. That shared goal gave us a sense of camaraderie and a bit of fun craziness!"

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

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

"Few expats speak Portuguese. Those who do, like me, are sometimes thanked for it here."
