CLUB Coaching employs a one-of-a-kind, holistic coaching system to ensure that you not only learn Dutch, but also develop the skills necessary to check on your long-term learning process. There are several courses to choose from, corresponding to your personal needs and level of Dutch. Have a look at the options below!
For all courses:
- Teams no bigger than 6 people
- Materials (printed and digital) and location are included in the price
- We employ a solidarity-based payment system: course participants can choose to pay a course fee depending on their own financial possibilities. This means that learners with a higher exposable income can choose to pay a slightly higher price, which in turn allows learners with a lower disposable income to access the course at a more affordable price.
- Teams are run by volunteers who are still training to become a coach. If you want your team to be supported by a trained coach, please have a look at our offer for businesses and teams.

Intensive
In our one week, full-time Intensive Course, we will discuss the fundamentals of Dutch grammar and practice real-life situations and conversations that you can use in your own daily life – think of introducing yourself, doing groceries, ordering food, asking for directions or going to the doctor’s office.
