Crescendo CVO

"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."

"By combining work and study, I want to be a good role model for the children. At home, we increasingly speak Dutch; the youngest two attend a Dutch-speaking school, and my husband is now also learning Dutch at Crescendo CVO."

"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."

"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."

“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.”

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

"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."

"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."

"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!"
