Crescendo CVO

"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!"

“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.” 

"A language course at Crescendo CVO is much more than grammar or vocabulary: it’s a bridge to respect, connection, and real opportunities in our society."

"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."

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

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

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

"Although I can follow the NT2 course well, learning Dutch is quite difficult. In Ukrainian, we don’t have articles. Making sentences in Dutch is really complicated. The lessons are very useful because I am learning Dutch specifically for technical professions. That will help me find a great job in the future."

"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."
