Dutch for Expats absolute beginners level 1 (0 -> A1-)

This Dutch course is meant for students with no knowledge of Dutch. In this absolute beginners course we are going to work with course book "Totaal", an elementary course for foreigners with a higher education background.        

This text and exercise book comes with downloadable audio materials and extra teaching materials will be handed out by your teacher. The objective of this program is to acquire a good knowledge of every day Dutch.                     

The emphasis of the lessons, therefore, will be placed on speaking and on listening skills.                                                        This course will bring you from level A0 to A1- (Common European Framework).

What to expect?

Chapters 1-5 of "Totaal": How to introduce yourself, spell your name, address etc., the Dutch alphabet, the numbers, currency amounts, the days/months/seasons, telling time, (grocery) shopping, going to a restaurant.

And for the grammar: verbs and word order, how to make sentences, how to pose questions, articles, plural forms, opposites. And not to forget: Dutch culture and traditions, conversation and pronunciation.                                     Course materials: “Totaal” course book  55 euros, payable to the instructor. Free downloadable audio materials.

This course includes homework and self  study.

The last lesson of this course will be held outside the classroom (fieldtrip) to practice the Dutch we learned.

After having completed this absolute beginners level  1 course, it is possible to continue with the beginners+ level 2 course starting at ASH in September 2020 (level  A1- -> A1).
