  • Description:

    This course is for people who have some basic to moderate knowledge of the Dutch language, and would like to improve it by reading (Dutch is not formally taught in this course). There's also some time for speaking. Reading: we read free to download online short stories/novellas/news articles, etc. I send these by link or attachments, so please bear in mind you will need an electronic device of some kind; you can then either read from your device in the classroom, or you can print out the texts. We prepare a few pages at home, and take turns on the day to read and translate a couple of paragraphs. Help with pronunciation will be available throughout. All comments are very welcome and are in English. Speaking: for about half an hour, we take turns to talk about a given subject. Material: dictionary - device.
