Crescendo CVO

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

"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."

"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."

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

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

"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."

"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 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."

“Dutch has very straightforward and simple rules, similar to English. I’m genuinely amazed and progressing quickly by doing all the exercises provided by the school.”
