Would you like to take your Dutch writing skills to a higher level? This course offered by the University of Groningen Language Centre can help you with that! In this course, you will practise writing a variety of texts, such as emails, reports, research proposals, essays, reviews, summaries, and press releases. You will find answers to questions such as: What is the correct tone? How long should my sentences be? Should I use the word ‘er’ or not? How can AI help me write my text?

The course is entirely online and lasts eight weeks. The course largely consists of doing assignments independently, so you can study when and where you prefer. You will also have a 45-minute online interactive group session with a teacher and a few fellow course participants every other week.

Who is this course for?

This course is intended for upper-intermediate speakers of Dutch at around B2 CEFR level. The course is also open to anyone with a higher level.
