Why's learning Dutch through dialogue efficient where other methods fail ?

Remember the way you learned your mother tongue. Your mom, dad, brothers or sisters never thought you grammar and vocabulary to teach you your mother-tongue, did they? They didn't gave you language courses. However that's the language you speak best.

Our experience is you don't need to learn Dutch through focusing on grammar rules, nor on vocabulary either. Fully tailored individually designed full immersion  or a spread over a series of weeks Dutch course makes learning Dutch easy, the same way you learned English.

Ongoing dialogue on topics you like is interesting : understanding texts you need for your job, talking about your professional interests, hobbies, family and kids. Those topics are central to your live and work, full personal immersion and commitment is the result.

This way you don't need to learn Dutch. You're interested in ongoing communication. By the way integration of living Dutch structures and the vocabulary you really needs is the result.

Talking and communicating about topics that are of real importance to you, avoids artificial school like "teaching".

You learn Dutch nearly without noticing. Our fully tailored made to measure Dutch language courses center on those topics you're really interested in..

Everyone is unique, so are you and so is your way of learning.

That’s why efficient Dutch courses need to be individual, need native speakers and need to be as tailored as possible.

Since you're only really involved in learning Dutch when dialogue is interesting, that's the only way to learn Dutch in less than a week.

Progress is fast and spectacular when there is a direct dialogue between your teacher and you :

·         * your gifts, talents, aptitudes and unconscious passive knowledge are most important,

·         * self-confidence is established in the first lessons,

·         * no time is wasted on things that do not interest you,

·         * pleasure and motivation are part of the game.

You want to learn Dutch fast and efficiently ? The dialogue method is ongoing continuous learning by doing.

Your teacher is not only a teacher, he's a partner and coach as well. Thanks to his experience he grasps what you need and adapts program to it.

There's no textbooks. This is not school. This Dutch course is designed with you for you

At the end of your one or two  full immersion weeks of Dutch language training or at the end of your series of 15 lessons you'll have your own made to measure "manual".

Whatever your aim, you'll improve in the same time pronunciation, comprehension, vocabulary and knowledge of living Dutch sentence structures.

 

Learn Dutch with bilingual native Dutch speakers, the are the better teachers, why ?

  

Only native Dutch speakers have learned Dutch in a natural way. The fact they're fluent in English helps them to grasp what you're trying to say. Even if your Dutch isn't as it's going to be yet. 

Native speakers fluent in at least four languages  won't fall in the bear trap to make you believe that  because you're working hard, studying grammar and vocabulary, you're making a lot of progress.

Of course as everyone you're inclined to believe that more effort results in ... more results. Fortunately this is not  true.

Remember that's not the way you learned your mother-tongue. You learned it not because you wanted to learn a language but because you wanted to communicate and relate to people.

Learn Dutch with native speakers is needed to get the right accent and the right sentence structure.

Native speakers are the only ones with natural knowledge of the social grammar of real live communication situations.

So what you learn in this Dutch language courses is a living non scholar language, in a most natural way : talking about topics your interested in.  You learn Dutch faster and more efficiently while integrating language structures without studying grammar rules, without even being aware of them.

Every human has an inborn ability to learn language and to recognize structures. You too.

Natural learning, grasping, is in fact grasping structures. You'll feel that your sentences sound ok in Dutch or don't.

This is what one can only learn from native Dutch speakers.

How do this individual Dutch language courses fit to what you need ?

You decide yourself:

·         *When your Dutch course should start,

·         *your number of lessons a day,

·         *your number of days or weeks,

·        * your objectives,

·         *the material relevant to your needs you want to include.

Learning Dutch, living Dutch, through ongoing dialogue saves a lot of time. Whether you're novice to Dutch or almost bilingual. Natural dialogue avoiding schoolish effort-focused inefficient lessons, triggers your inborn human skills of language learning.

Even if you're completely new to Dutch, within one week you know the basics you need in every day conversation.

Individual made to measure, fully tailored Dutch language courses, ongoing talk with native speakers allows progress at your own pace. You only develop the vocabulary you need. If you like  so, bring in own material. It will be worked through in the same natural way.

From any point of view individual personal lessons are faster than any group teaching.

Native speakers are the only ones with natural knowledge of the social grammar of real live communication situations.

 

Do I need to be motivated ?

 

Of course, you won't really learn Dutch if you're not. 

But you don't need to motivate yourself. Topics will interest you. You'll learn to understand the texts you want to understand, to speak the Dutch you want to know. So you're learning to talk about what you want to talk about with your colleagues, clients, friends, partners, politics, trade-unions etc. . 

The most important thing to do for a best result, is to cut off any communication in any other language for your time of training (no phone, no  CNN, no BBC nor other British or American TV programs). Quite evident if you want to learn Dutch through full immersion.

"Rehearsal" although limited to listening and repeating  a series of key-sentences your teacher distilled from the dialogues, is important. Do this preferably before you go to sleep. This may even make you starting to dream in Dutch.

Thanks to dialogue based Dutch language courses you quickly learn how to make yourself to be (better) understood in Dutch.

There's plenty of practice (teachers are having meals with you). Results are immediate and lasting.

This unique availability in natural situations helps you to avoid translating. Instead you learn to think in Dutch. Thinking Dutch becomes as natural, easy and pleasant to you as your own mother-tongue. You won't lose what you experienced.

That's not that difficult is it ?
