The lesson was really nice. The teacher was amazing and ready to help. The material of the course was probably a lot to absorb I would prefer a slower pace. I feel confident that I can understand some basic stuff and now it is up to me to study and move on to the next steps.
It was very good experience. Now I know how to reading and I know many new words.
An instructive learning experience with a practical approach
The teacher is very good. she knows how to lead the class and explain the language. However, sometimes there was little time to do the exercises because every class we have many many things to learn. Other difficulty, which is not related to the teacher, is that it is too late for me, after a complete day of work I have little energy and lack focus.
10 dynamic lessons with a good balance btw speaking, writing and reading
Everything was enjoyable, all the materials provided and the expertise of the lecturer were great.
I would like to continue with a follow-up course after summer.
The class was one of the highlights of every week. The general atmosphere is very welcoming and the teacher supportive. The content forced me past my comfort zone, without causing total frustration.
Lefty is an excellent teacher. The way of learning is something I can take with me when I struggle to use my Dutch. The class was gezellig and serious at the same time—a perfect mix. I am grateful for this experience.
I enjoyed my course with Letty so much. She is passionate and encouraging. She explained grammar clearly and she gave us different speaking exercises. The workload is just right.
De cursus Nederlands was ontzettend leerzaam en plezierig, ik heb veel geleerd en voelde me altijd ondersteund door de docenten.
Great classroom experience! Our docent, Letty balances book study with conversation and it left the whole class with an excellent learning experience.
Kickstart is a great school where you actually want to go:) The lessons were always interesting and had enough of dynamics and different materials. Letty is a very inspiring teacher! I would only add a bit more of checks/dictation which might keep the gained knowledge more strictly. Also, it would be helpful to have more grammar explanations in the materials.
I am vert pleased with the course. The pace is quite fast and it requires a lot of work at home but I enjoyed it. Professor is excellent and very patient.
The company helped a lot by making sure I participate in the correct level that suits me. I also found the website really helpful while doing my homework.
I am very happy with the course.
Well structured
Toen ik voor het eerst bij Kickstart begon, twijfelde ik aan mijn taalvaardigheid. Ik deed goed met het luisteren maar mijn vocabulaire was vooral passief en ik had ook problemen met het spreken en het uiten van mijn mening over bepaalde onderwerpen. Dankzij de cursussen van stepping stone 3 tot en met 5 is mijn Nederlands nu beter dan ooit. De focus lag op spreken en elke les hadden we interessante aktiviteiten waarbij we met de andere cursisten in verschillende discussies gingen. De onderwerpen waren breed - van klimaat en duurzamheid tot recensies van beroemde films en boeken. Ik ben erg dankbaar voor onze docent Letty die ons de lessen heel professioneel en met aandacht heeft gegeven. Ik heb veel heel geleerd in Kickstart. Mijn vertrouwen in de taal is nu groter en ik probeer elke dag Nederlands te spreken wanneer ik buiten ga. Bedankt voor alles! :))
It is nice experience. I would love also to have more intensive and longer course.
I enjoyed a lot the lessons with Letty, very well steuctured.
It would add value to the course to have the printed schedule with additional tasks per day. For example: Tuesday: Exercise 1 and this video...
Ik vond dat de cursus goed gestructureerd was en de lerales was ondersteunend. De cursus had een geweldige insteek voor het NT2.
Really good experience with KickStart. The administrative side was great and the materials as well. I enjoyed the “reversing the classroom” however I would have then liked the lessons to be an application of the theory rather than going over it again. For the first few lessons I did all my homework and the tasks however I stopped this as we just covered the same work in the class anyway. As this is a new method I have no doubt they will tailor their lessons to be more applied theory.
It was good, although it didnt help at all that we had to do all the work before we discussed it in the lesson. I felt like i had to be my own teacher and already build sentences and a foundation for things in my head only to later find out i was doing it wrong and basically starting over again. The lessons were also really really long. I would advise adding an extra class at the end and rather making it 2 hours. Its impossible to concentrate for that long at the end of the day, especially because a lot of us have to work a 9 to 5 before the class
Good registration process and good customer service in finding the right class based on my Dutch level.
