Nederlands half-gevorderd [A2-B1] deel 1

This course is for those who have already mastered a reasonable amount of Dutch and who have little trouble finding the right words during a conversation. You can write short letters or emails without too many problems and reading newspaper or magazine articles is fairly easy. Your existing knowledge of the language will be further broadened and deepened in this course.  

During the lessons attention will be paid to grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation and we will practise the four language skills: speaking, listening, reading and writing. Your existing knowledge will be broadened using new lesson material and new challenges. You will work with the more difficult words and grammar so that, as well as standard conversations, you will eventually be able to talk about more complex subjects. Insights into Dutch culture will also be studied during this course. This will help you to develop a more complete sense of Dutch. You will work alone, in pairs and in small groups during the lessons.

About 3 to 5 hours of homework will be set each week, consisting primarily of reading and writing exercises.
