Intermediate Dutch

What you want

Beginners 4 is the ideal course for those who want to be self-reliant in everyday life. It does not matter whether you need the language professionally, for your personal development or for your civic integration exam.

If you have successfully completed the Beginners 4 course, you can:

  • Explain how and why you do the things you do, and where and when;
  • Have discussions and give arguments;
  • Say what you are doing and ask for or give advice.

Important to know before booking this course...

Lessons are taught completely in Dutch! You can already speak some Dutch, so our aim is to immerse you in the language even more! You will slowly build an understanding of everything you hear and read, and it will encourage you to use the language as much as possible outside of the classroom also.

If you need your teacher to explain something in your own language / in English, then you are very welcome to ask them - make sure you ask them in Dutch!

Course book

Course books are compulsory for this course - please ensure you order in time. You can purchase the course book, De Opmaat (herziene editie!), here.

If you do not have your course book in time for the first lesson, don't worry, just inform us and we will lend you a copy for the first lesson.

Integration examination

Currently, level A2 of the Common European Framework of Reference is required for the linguistic part of the civic integration examination. That will probably change: depending on the capabilities of the person integrating, that level will be raised or lowered. PLEASE NOTE: even in the current situation a language proficiency level A2 is not sufficient in itself to be able to take the full integration exam.

And after that?

If you have successfully completed the course, you can proceed to the next level, Advanced 1, which trains up to level A2 + of the Common European Framework of Reference.
