Crescendo CVO

“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.”

"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."

"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."

"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."

"My favourite moment during class? The coffee break, when everyone chats cheerfully... en français, bien sûr!"

"After the first basic module, you grasp the basics and logic of the language, and introducing yourself becomes possible. You are expected to practice and prepare for the lesson. I set aside half an hour per week for homework: practicing via BookWidgets is enjoyable."

The lessons were interactive and fun, with games, dialogues, and role-plays. The teacher was fantastic.

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

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