At the Language Centre, you will learn Dutch at a fast pace using teaching methods we developed ourselves. Our language courses focus on speaking and understanding the Dutch language. This way, you will quickly start to feel more or less at home with the language, and you will naturally expand your knowledge of grammar and vocabulary.
This course is intended for native speakers of German with an intermediate level of Dutch at CEFR level B1. During the course, we will work towards level B2 . The course is taught as much as possible in Dutch, with explanations in English when necessary. It is therefore important that you have a good command of English to participate in the course.
The course is openly accessible to everyone: UG students, UG staff, and external parties! Full-time international students, PhD students, and postdocs of the University of Groningen can take these Dutch courses at the Language Centre at the expense of the Board of the University of Groningen. Read all about these regulations and see if it applies to you here.
Plan a consultation
Have you not taken a Dutch course at the Language Centre before? Then it is mandatory that you first arrange a consultation with one of our teachers.
The course consists of 12 lessons. Each lesson lasts two hours if you take an on-location course, and 1,5 hours if you take an online course. Throughout the course, the following topics will be covered:
You should expect to spend a total of 30 hours on independent study in order to stay on track with the course. This involves, for example, reading texts, learning vocabulary, and completing grammar and writing assignments.
After successfully completing this course, you will be ready for the follow-up course Dutch B2>B2/C1!
During this course, we will use the following book. You will need to purchase this book yourself:
This book also includes an individual login code for a website containing additional exercises, listening fragments, videos, and songs. You need this code to be able to actively participate in the course. You can also purchase the code separately from the publisher Coutinho. This is necessary when you purchase a second-hand copy of the book.
Please note: due to the frequent use of illegal digital versions of this book, participants of the on-site course are required to purchase the paper copy of the book. Digital versions are not allowed. If you had already purchased a legal e-book for a previous course, please email your teacher before the start of your course to report that you have a digital version. A check will be performed during the first lesson to establish whether it is a legal version. If you are taking an online course, a legal e-book is allowed.
