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."

"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."

"The teachers are very helpful and show a lot of patience. They correct us all the time and repeat the material we struggle with."

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

"I enjoy interacting with people from very diverse backgrounds and cultures, and I like helping whenever I am called upon. It also gives me a lot of satisfaction."

"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."

"You learn a language, but you also learn how to interact with people.”
