 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a wonderful experience at Language Corner. Katie, the teacher, is excellent: professional, friendly, and very attentive to students’ needs. The lessons are engaging, interactive, and well structured, which makes learning English both effective and enjoyable. I also really appreciated the welcoming atmosphere and the opportunity to meet students from different countries. Everyone at the school is kind and helpful, creating a very positive environment for learning and speaking English with confidence. I highly recommend Language Corner to anyone looking to improve their English while enjoying a great experience in Amsterdam!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am happy to share my experience as student at Language Corner with anyone who is aiming to boost their Dutch language skills. I had 1:1 classes and I highly recommend my teacher Joshua: after an assessment of my level of Dutch, Joshua has actively listened and understood my goals. Joshua has been able to tailor and customize lessons specifically on my needs. I appreciated Joshua’s competence, empathy, patience and care throughout all lessons. The study material, the grammar references, the exercises, the corrections on mistakes and the feedback on area of improvements are some of the features that made this course among the best I have ever had. Thanks to Joshua supporting approach I won my initial lack of confidence and embarrassment on kicking off a conversation in Dutch. In addition, the whole team at Language Corner has been friendly and positive when checking in for the lessons and when interacting at the student evening meetings to practice Dutch. Yes, Language Corner is organizing regular students “meet & fun & practice” evening together with Dutch native speakers. What a great idea to learn while sharing a drink and some fun time with people from all over the world! Moreover, I enjoyed as well the venue where the lessons took place: Language Corner is located not far from beautiful Westerpark, classrooms are well designed and equipped with projectors. Bedankt, Joshua! Je bent top docent! Dankzij onze lessen voel ik me nu zelfverzekerd genoeg om Nederlands te spreken en ben ik gemotiveerd om mijn Nederlands verder te blijven oefenen en te verbeteren. Je bent een heel getalenteerde en bekwame docent! Tot de volgende cursus! Enrico Aluisi

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I really enjoyed my B2 class with Martin who was a great teacher. Having struggled in bigger classes, it made a difference for me learning together in a small class as it provided more opportunity to speak and get feedback. Now I feel confident speaking Dutch in everyday life :)

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had private Dutch lessons with Ella Smith for about 6 months and I had a great time with her. She's fun, easy going and really helps with learning specific things from the Dutch culture that you wouldn't have a chance to learn otherwise. I really enjoyed my lessons with her. Thank you Ella, I miss our lessons!

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 intensive Dutch group courses take place?

We offer our intensive Dutch 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. Dutch group courses are given at the location at Frederik Hendrikplantsoen 98. But both locations are close to the city center, easily accessible by public transport.

Can I take the intensive Dutch course online instead of in Amsterdam?

Unfortunately not. The intensive Dutch courses are only given at our location in Amsterdam. If you want to take lessons online instead, you can consider taking Dutch private lessons.

How long does an intensive Dutch group course last?

The intensive Dutch courses have a duration of 2 weeks. The classes of intensive courses take 3 hours each and are given 5 times a week.

Do I need to buy a book or learning materials?

Yes, with the general Dutch courses we use a course book that you’ll need to purchase separately.

You can order the book through us or you can order the book yourself. In case you decide to order the book yourself, you’ll receive all the information about which book to buy.

But our classes our very interactive and you won’t just learn from the book. We also use extra interactive exercises and handouts provided by your teacher.

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 Dutch.

Are the teachers native speakers?

Yes!
All our Dutch teachers are native speakers with extensive experience teaching Dutch 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 Dutch before?

Of course.
If you already know some Dutch, 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 use a DUO loan to pay for the language courses at Language Corner?

Unfortunately this is not possible. Our courses are not specifically focusing on the “inburgering”. Therefore, you cannot use your DUO loan for our courses.

Can I pay in multiple instalments for the Dutch 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.
