 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I took private Spanish classes with Denisse and I loved every minute of it. My fluency improved a lot, and I made great progress with my grammar too.
Besides building my Spanish skills, I also learned about Peruvian culture and discovered some great Spanish music along the way, which made the lessons so much more than just language practice.

Denisse is a patient and skilled teacher, and her enthusiasm and seemingly unlimited energy meant I was looking forward to every class. If you’re looking for a teacher who makes learning both effective and fun, I can’t recommend her enough!
Muchas gracias otra vez :)

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I took Dutch lessons here and the teachers were wonderful: attentive, patient, and genuinely invested in your progress. I still come back for their language exchange events at Pacific in Amsterdam, and they're always well organized and welcoming. It's a safe, relaxed environment where you meet students and all kinds of interesting expats, which makes practicing a lot more fun than it sounds.

I especially recommend the conversational mini courses, which are a great way to build confidence speaking. Highly recommended for anyone learning Dutch in Amsterdam!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had the best Dutch course experience with Joshua. Before I was really hesitating to speak Dutch and could only express myself in simple conversations. However, after one year with Joshua I could handle much deeper topics and express myself with ease. I cannot thank Joshua enough for the amazing energy during the course and for the progress that he helped me achieve in mastering Dutch.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My Language Corner lessons with Martin Landsburg were really good.
He is an excellent teacher: patient, encouraging, positive,  supportive and has a great sense of humour, which is quite important when you are a teacher.
It is quite clear that he has had a lot of relevant teaching experience and that he cares and takes ownership of his role.
I hope I will be able to continue my lessons with Martin, as soon as my professional life is settled and organised.

Frequently Asked Questions

Click here to see the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ).

What’s the difference between a general English course and a English conversation course?

Our general English courses focus on all language skills, so speaking, listening, reading and writing. While our English conversation courses mainly focus on improving your fluency and confidence when speaking.
If you want to build a solid grammar foundation or in case you want to improve your English in general, a general course is the best start. However, if you already know the basics (A2 level or higher) and want to practise speaking more, the conversation course is ideal.

How do I know which English level is right for me?

You can book a free level test with us. One of our teachers will assess your current level and recommend the course that fits you best.
This way, you’ll always join a group that matches your abilities and goals.
You can book the free level test here.

How many students are in each group?

Our groups are small and personal, with a maximum of 8 students per class. This allows our teachers to give you plenty of attention and ensures that everyone gets to speak and participate actively.

Where do the English group courses take place?

We offer our English group courses at our location in Amsterdam.

We have two locations in Amsterdam: one at the Rietwijkerstraat 10 and one at the Frederik Hendrikplantsoen 98. English group courses are given at the location at Rietwijkerstraat 10. But both locations are close to the city center, easily accessible by public transport.

How long does an English conversation course last?

The regular conversation courses take 6 weeks with one lesson per week of 2 hours each. This means a total of 12 hours.

The intensive conversation courses take 2 weeks with 5 lessons per week of 2 hours each. So these conversation courses have a total of 20 hours.

Do I need to buy a book or learning materials?

No, for the conversation courses no books are used. Lessons are very interactive and focus on the speaking aspect only.

What happens after I complete the course?

After finishing your course, you’ll receive a certificate of participation (if you participated in at least 75% of the lessons) and you can continue with the next level (for example, from A1 to A2).
Our teachers can advise you on the best follow-up course to keep improving your English.

Are the teachers native speakers?

Yes!
All our English teachers are native speakers with extensive experience teaching English to internationals.
They make the lessons engaging, personal, and practical. Above all focusing on real-life communication and a relaxed classroom atmosphere.

Can I join if I’ve already studied some English before?

Of course.
If you already know some English, simply book a free level test.
We’ll determine your current level and place you in the right group, so you can continue learning from where you left off.

Can I get a student visa when I sign up for a course at Language Corner?

In The Netherlands you can only obtain a student visa if you are enrolled at a university or college. So unfortunately it’s not possible to get a student visa based on a language course at Language Corner.

If you only need a tourist visa, we can send you visa supporting documents. This contains a booking confirmation and invitation letter. We charge a non-refundable fee of € 25,00 for this service. Furthermore, you need to pay for the enrolment and the visa supporting documents upfront.

Can I pay in multiple instalments for the English courses?

In some cases this is possible. So please contact our staff to ask for the possibilities.

Can the invoice be sent to my employer or company?

Yes, this is possible. After registering, please contact our team so that we have all the necessary details to send the invoice to your employer or company.
