Teachers have a lot of patience and a the atmosphere is good.
Dear Tristan, Many thanks for the feedback. We are happy you enjoyed your course and hope to see you again in the near future! The Kickstart School Team
I love it. The taacher were kind would recommend
I had a good experience. I was very disappointed when I could not get a discount from you for private course for 40hours. So I contacted a different school.
Dear Aude, Thank you for the feedback. We feel that the prices we ask for lessons are very competitive for the quality we ensure. We wish you every success in your further Dutch learning journey! The Kickstart School Team
I have been returning to kickstart time and time again and I am always pleased with the organization of the courses! The school takes feedback seriously and encourages it so they are really caring about the students needs and how to meet them so we can succeed!
I really like Kickstart School as a whole. However, this class didn’t make me feel motivated enough as it did during Stepping Stone 3 due to the 3 different teachers and the material (the book) was not engaging enough like Nederlands in actie.
Dear Taylor, Thank you for taking the time to provide us with your review. We value feedback from students very highly and prioritize it in our internal quality evaluation. The course you took was indeed shared by two very dedicated teachers, who arranged full handover and made sure the flow of the course was not interrupted. We understand tough that the change was not communicated clearly enough and we are already working on being more transparent in such cases. The third teacher stepped in to cover for a teacher who suddenly fell ill, which could not have been predicted. We did our best to keep the course going without cancellations or delays in the course schedule. Regarding the course book, "Nederlands in Actie" used in your previous courses has just been refreshed and revised, which understandably makes it more compelling and up to date, compared to the other ones from the series that are still awaiting or undergoing revision. We do believe though that all the course books we use remain the best learning resources for our students. Thank you again for your constructive remarks and we hope to see you at Kickstart again. The Kickstart School Team
I have had a great experience so far. My Dutch has definitely improved and I feel more comfortable speaking it.
Very friendly, nice and easy
The course is very suitable for beginner. The difficulty is proper. The teacher is very nice.
Excellent, communication is very easy and professional with administration. In terms of course content, I think it can/should be tailored more to the needs of students and focus more on practicing, train students to have simple conversations in dutch, to be able to read and understand most common type texts in dutch, etc. Too much time spent on grammar which I believe is not the purpose of the audience. Thank you!
The teacher pays attention to every student, allows them to participate and explains in a way that is understandable, making learning effective.
Dear Pichsukan, Thank you for your feedback. We believe the right student-teacher dynamics lays foundation for an encouraging learning environment and fosters classroom interaction. We are very pleased that you appreciated your instructor's teaching style. Best wishes, The Kickstart School Team
Professional with well organised website, materials and guidance. More speaking practice with smaller numbers in the class would make it 5 stars.
I have learned English and Dutch here, and I feel good.
Stepping stone 2 built on prior knowledge from Stepping Stone 1 giving us more opportunities to practice speaking. I enjoyed the “small” class size of 6 students. I enjoyed the interactive activities via Kahoot for example. I would prefer 2x 5 minute breaks rather than a longer 10minute break but that is a personal preference. Thank you for the course! Looking forward to stepping stone 3 in the future.
Few feedback/proposition for next time: -use kahoot every week to check the vocabulary -propose easy book with basic vocabulary of everyday life with images -listening to songs as exercises is a bit tough due to the music background, but I loved discovering new Dutch artists!
Classes are not too hard to follow, several exercise types are used and the teacher always try to make sure you are following
I had a pleasant experience for my second course with Kickstart school but the ideal number of students for online class is 6 people only, not more.
Our teacher was so kind and patient with us and explained everything well, I felt very welcomed and appreciate her work. I ended the course with much more knowledge and understanding. Would definitely recommend and will go to the next course!
Our teacher Letti was really amazing. We had private classes and so much fun with her. We practiced actual useful stuff so that only after a short period I feel confident to speak and try my Dutch in real life situations (:
It was a really great experience to learn Dutch! I really enjoyed the way it was set up and the pace that we learnt the material at! I would highly recommend
Overall very pleased with the course. The handout pack nicely complements the textbook for the course. Our teacher was very experienced in teaching and patiently explained the basics of Dutch to us, making sure that we understood concepts before moving on. The interaction with other students in the class through role playing and other exercises helped to further cement all the new topics we were taught.
The trainer is awesome in Dutch teaching.
This semi-intensive class helped me to finally learn dutch, to feel more confident when starting a conversation. I would add more speaking to the course. It's great
I like that the teacher has a lot of experience with one of one lessons and that we discuss interesting topics every lesson. I have seen a lot of progress with the tailored course o I could highly recommend!
The teacher was amazing, however the method was not helpful, every day i had to learn a new grammar and only one lesson to go over it, thats not enough! I wish the focus would be on speaking and learning more new words. It was too much material condensed in 2 weeks, not sure if i actually had much of the material sink in...
My experience with kickstart has been good. Kickstart has a lot of helpful materials. Harriet has been a great teacher.
