One-to-one General/Business
Dutch Course in Birmingham
Whether you want Dutch lessons to help you in your general day-to-day life or for business needs, our made-to-order language courses can help you improve quickly and confidently.
General Dutch courses will provide you with enough grammar and vocabulary to allow you to converse with native speakers, and form a strong basis for further learning. A Business course in Dutch will generally cover basic business etiquette in that language, and at a higher level, reading and writing in Dutch.
Courses are, however, tailor-made - you cover in your lessons what you need to cover. Most students taking a Business Dutch course will gain telephone and email expertise, as well as general conversation skills. Likewise, a General course can include specific elements that are integral to your needs, for example if you need vocabulary specific to buying property overseas.
Our Business courses cater to a range of requirements. Many of our clients work for foreign governments and educational institutions, corporations with branches abroad, as well as those who buy and sell around the world. General courses cater mostly to those who wish to learn Dutch for short trips to (or through) a country where it is widely spoken; as well as those who wish to pass a specific Dutch exam, people who want to buy a home abroad, and people marrying into a Dutch family.

Info about Birmingham
Often referred to as England's 'second city', Birmingham is famed for its industrial importance throughout the country's history, as well as being home to the 'least sexy' accent in the UK. While it may be characteristic of Birmingham's native population, the city actually has the smallest indigenous population by proportion of any city in the United Kingdom. In fact the city has become known as a 'plural city' - that is, one with no ethnic majority.
This cultural variety is what makes Birmingham a cracking place to start picking up a second language. With around 20% of the population born outside the UK, and another 15% from outside the EU, there are plenty of opportunities to discover new and interesting languages around the city; and thanks to Birmingham's city council being the UK's largest local education authority, there is a wide and varied pool of qualified language trainers made available to you.

Info about Dutch
Spoken by over 30 million people around the word, the Dutch language is the native tongue of the Netherlands and is spoken in many other countries throughout Europe and parts of Africa (being the parent language of Afrikaans). Dutch grammar is similar to German, but made easier by the relative lack of morphology (that is, words changing form depending on the role they are playing in a sentence). This gives it an English feel, though the vocabulary features plenty of those lovely lengthy compound words that generally characterise Germanic languages.
Dutch is not traditionally a popular language for non-native speakers to learn, mainly due to the fact that its use is not widespread, and most Dutch speakers are generally proficient in other European languages. However, the number of non-native speakers has surged in recent years.
