Crescendo CVO

"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.”

"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."

"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."

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

"A heartwarming moment was the Christmas party with the students at Crescendo CVO. The openness of the students was truly special and made me feel like I belonged."

"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!"

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

"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."

"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."
