 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.

 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!

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 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.
