With this A2 Dutch course, you will develop your Dutch to A2 level. Speaking is the most important skill, and grammar is practised throughout.

You will learn how to ask and talk about situations in the past, describe a technical problem, indicate when you do not understand someone or something, make small talk, ask for and give directions, describe objects and your surroundings, ask for and provide information, and give and ask for opinions. You will practise grammar topics such as the perfect and imperfect tenses (regular and irregular verbs), presenting with “this is/these are”, conjunctions, separable verbs, and reflexive verbs.

We work with the following course materials: the book Nederlands in Gang chapters 9–16 (including e-learning), the Lest Best YouTube channel (grammar videos), Quizlet, and the Lest Best A2 Study Guide.

Throughout the course, you will complete various assessments and tasks in grammar, speaking, pronunciation and intonation, and vocabulary. After completing the course, you will receive a certificate with your results. We also consider your motivation and effort during the course. If these are sufficient, you can continue with the follow-up course: Dutch A2-B1.
