In the B2.1 course, you will develop your Dutch to mid-B2 level. This module lasts 6 weeks. No new grammar is introduced during this course. Instead, previously covered grammar is reviewed and further deepened. Most attention is given to improving your reading and listening skills and expanding your vocabulary.

You will learn to give presentations and two-way conversations, retell an article, explain something, argue a point, participate in discussions and master all common language functions.

During this course we work with the following study materials: the book Nederlands op Niveau chapters 1-3 (including e-learning), exercises with compound verbs and verbs with fixed prepositions, Quizlet, the Lest Best YouTube channel, the B2.1 Study Guide, sample exams for reading, speaking and listening, and self-study materials for reading and listening.

During this course you will complete various tests and assignments: grammar, speaking, pronunciation and intonation, and vocabulary. Upon completion of the course, you will receive a certificate with your results. We also assess your motivation and effort during the course. If these are sufficient, you can continue with the follow-up course: Dutch B2.2.
