During the course, you will improve and perfect your fluency skills. The course aims at expanding your knowledge of Dutch vocabulary and communication skills. You will learn the subtleties in Dutch given various situations (such as telephoning, having discussions or making a presentation). You will also further perfect your pronunciation and intonation.
To participate in this course, you will already need to have level B2 in Dutch. You can read about these levels here.
The intake procedure for this course consists of: online intake conversation.
After you have enrolled for this course, we will invite you for an assessment to determine your level. We recommend that you enrol at least two weeks before the start of the course. If you enrol later than this, we cannot guarantee there will be time for the intake procedure.
If you have completed the Dutch Advanced 2 course at UvA Talen, an assessment will not be necessary.
The course will be based on up-to-date topics ('what's in the news'), specific business contexts (‘Business Dutch') as well as subjects introduced by the individual participants (‘what do you find important'). These topics will be used for speaking excercises, presentations, and above all a lot of speaking practice with the other students.
You will complete the course with a presentation.
If you successfully complete this course, you will receive a certificate.
The course material is not included in the course price. If you choose to follow lessons in class, you can buy your books through us. You then receive them during the first lesson. If you are going to take an online course, you will buy the books yourself.
The course price includes:
- an intake
- the group course
- an exam
- (if necessary) a resit. You can take the resit within six months after finishing the course.
- a certificate
The course material is not included in the course price.
There is no difference in the course content and course material between the online and in class course, only a difference in format. The online courses take place via Zoom and the in class courses at the Roeterseiland in Amsterdam. By using breakout-rooms teachers will aim to provide the same interaction as during an in class course. In both formats students are expected to actively participate in the course.
The choice for an online or in class course depends on your personal preference for location and teaching style.
It is not possible to combine an online and in class course. If you start a course online, you will follow the entire course online. The same applies to in class courses. This is in order to ensure the peace in our classes and avoid a lot of changes between classes.
Students generally need to spend double the amount of time of the course on studying by themselves. This means that if your course is 40 hours of class, you can expect about 80 hours of homework and self study. In our experience, the more time you invest in homework, the more you benefit from your course.
In the week before the start of the course you will receive your final course confirmation which mentions your teacher.
At UvA Talen we have a variety of professional teachers with years of experience teaching to adults. Due to our feedback sessions with teacher we can guarantee the quality of our teachers. We have set standards for the qualification of our teacher. Depending on the type of course, we will often choose for a native speaker of your language.
Awesome! I had an amazing teacher who was so calm, clear, and supportive. It was an enjoyable space to learn a new language, UvA Talen was definitely the right place for me!
