Online Dutch Courses
Meet other expats in my small group courses designed to make learning Dutch engaging, enjoyable, and social!
“Anouk has created a very friendly and enjoyable environment during the course in spite of being online (which is always more challenging). She really cares for each of her students and remembers where we need more help.”
– Rosa, Spain
My group course teaching approach
By limiting my group courses to just six students, I ensure that you will have lots of opportunities to practice speaking Dutch. Instead of a traditional teacher-centred lesson, you will be actively engaged in learning through discussions, games, and interactive activities. We will use the book Taaltalent part 1 or part 2 to guide some of our learning. You will be expected to prepare before each lesson by completing homework or fun video assignments! To maximize your learning, I recommend 2-3 hours of guided self-study each week.

“Anouk finds the perfect balance between hard work (grammar, vocabulary) and fun breakouts (games, quizzes) – and all of that in small groups. Intensive learning progress almost guaranteed. I can highly recommend!” – Peter, Germany

“I highly recommend classes wth Anouk at Active Dutch! Her small group classes on Zoom are effective, engaging, fun, and convenient. I appreciate the personal attention she gives to me and the other students, which I’m pretty sure I would not get at a larger language school 😉 I love her approach to teaching… how she “mixes it up” during our lessons and keeps it interesting and interactive with various exercises, games, and lessons. SO happy I found Anouk to guide me in my Dutch language learning journey!”
