CEFR Levels
The levels of our methods and courses are classified according to CEFR (or CEFRL), Common European Framework of Reference of Languages. The six levels within CEFR are A1(beginner), A2 (elementary), B1 (intermediate), B2 (upper intermediate), C1 (advanced), C2 (proficiency). CEFR is an international standard for working out the level of abilities (reading, writing, listening and speaking) within a language. It was established by the Council of Europe and aims to validate language ability. CEFR is used for around 40 different languages. We currently offer Dutch language courses at all levels of the CEFR.
Teaching Method
The teaching method ‘Codeplus’ is a foundation course especially designed for non-native, highly qualified professionals who want to learn Dutch quickly and efficiently. The teaching method includes an extensive self-study package in the form of a software programme. The emphasis of Code plus part 1 and 2 is on listening and speaking and gives you a solid foundation upon which you can build the rest of your Dutch language skills. Our speaking classes allow you to immerse yourself in the Dutch language by being exposed to real-life situations and scenarios.
Teaching Method (for Nurses)
The teaching method ‘De taal van de verpleging’ is a Dutch course specifically meant for foreign nurses who are going to work in Dutch healthcare facilities. The method is developed according to the ‘Delft method’, a very straightforward way of learning Dutch by studying texts and new vocabulary and using these newly learned words productively during the conversation classes. These texts allow our students to prepare themselves for their future jobs in the Dutch healthcare sector by exposing them to the medical vocabulary used in Dutch healthcare facilities.
