Dutch Intensive A2
Dutch Intensive A2 is our Dutch course for German speakers and those who know some Dutch already. It takes place over one semester. You should count on around 140 hours of work in total (10 per week).
You will achieve a basic command of the language needed in a range of familiar situations, e.g. reading short simple texts, communicating on familiar topics and handling short social exchanges and writing short simple notes and messages. We encourage you to read the book Dealing with the Dutch for some background; it takes about 15 hours of pleasant bedtime reading.

Practical information
When you move to a different country to study, there are lots of things to arrange. For instance, where will you live, what are the costs? Visit our practical information page to help you prepare your stay. It is also important to start arranging a living space as soon as possible. Our housing pages will help you on your way. A student living in the Netherlands needs about € 800 to 1000 a month to cover living expenses, such as housing, food and transportation. This includes insurances – health insurance is mandatory.
