Giulio working at HMSHost (took an advanced course)

“I followed Mylène’s training courses as a student and I also work in the HR department. As HR I can say that Mylene was able to involve all students in learning such a complex language and was able to tailor the classes based on the different needs of our employees. And always with flexibility and a smile. She created an open atmosphere to learn: fun and with a lot of opportunities to talk. I feel absolutely encouraged to study and speak Dutch, I have a great relationship with Mylene and I feel encouraged to just go for it.

After 3 courses I am able to have conversations in stores, to ask for information, to have general talks with friends, family and colleagues on basic topics when they are asked to speak a bit slower that they are used to.”

Zahara working at HMSHost (took an intermediate course)

I liked everything about the course, for example the practical lessons and games we played that helped me improve the vocabulary. We have useful homework and speaking in Dutch class motivates me to improve engaging in short conversations in Dutch.  Mylene is a great tutor and I enjoy learning in her classes. She always encourages and makes it fun to learn, and despite making a lot of mistakes, she helps to correct your sentences. After two courses I am able to speak in daily life situations like ordering in a restaurant or talk at the train station.

Valentina from Italy (took several courses with Mylène, from Basic to Advanced)

“I highly recommend Mylène! She is really good at explaining, involving students, finding funny and easy ways for you to speak, practice and memorize with original exercises and activities. Perfect especially after a day at work. You are always looking forward to the next lesson. Super!” 

Dora from Russia (took our Advanced Course)

“It’s different and interesting. It feels more like a meetup with people than a course. You learn without hesitation and I always looked forward to the course.”

Fabiola from Italy (took our Advanced Course)

“The way the group came together was perfect. I needed something to gain confidence with my Dutch and this course was the perfect way to do it. Every class was a surprise, I was always happy to leave home and join you.”

Nic from Romania (took our A2+ course - and continued with our Advanced course :)

“The “Let’s Speak Dutch” method is highly effective for expats like me, who are willing to improve their Dutch skills. I took the A2+ course, which was interactive and involved a lot of role-playing. Also, it was built on the students’ needs: we were actually asked to list the most important situations in which we would like to work (e.g.: applying for a job, making a presentation in Dutch, take part in meetings at work, deal with authority, etc). This made the course very useful! I really enjoyed the course, not only because Mylène and Marlies are doing a great job, but also because of my outstanding fellow students!”

Keevin from the U.S. (took our A2+ course)

“The course covers subjects that you will use everyday, such as making doctor’s appointments or planning meetings at work. It focuses on communication and getting your point across rather than on grammar or being exactly correct. The relaxed learning environment allows everyone to express themselves, especially as the students come from various lands with diverse backgrounds.”

Paula from Brasil (took our A2+ course)

“The course covers different and interesting themes, which are also challenging. Practical homework, directly related to the subject of the lesson.”
