Crescendo CVO

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

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

"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.”

"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."

“If you enjoy working with children or older people and you want to work with your heart, this is the perfect direction. You can even start in the middle of the year, just like I did.”

“I can already read and write fluently, and I just try to keep speaking, even if it goes a bit slower sometimes. All my colleagues support and help me, both with the language and with the work.” 

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

"You can really see the learners grow. They speak up spontaneously and dare to make mistakes. They also use French more often outside the classroom. To me, that's the sign that it works."
