A2-B1 Dutch course
Master Higher- intermediate Dutch in 16 weeks
The self-paced B1-Dutch course to move beyond basic Dutch, pass language exams, and speak with real confidence!
Do you relate to this?
- You’ve learned the basics of Dutch, but you’ve hit a plateau.
- You can talk about daily-life topics, but not much more.
- You can understand Dutch pretty well, but struggle following native Dutch speakers when they talk too fast.
- You still feel nervous and insecure when talking in Dutch.
- You keep on making the same mistakes, over and over...
You are not alone! And I will help you!

what my students are saying
Dankjewel Kim, je bent de beste docent ter wereld. Dit jaar ben ik begonnen met het Staatsexamen. Ik ben geslaagd voor het B1-schrijvenexamen. Nu oefen ik voor het lezenexamen en het sprekenexamen. Ik hoop ze tegen het einde van het jaar te halen.

Ik volg Kim's werk al bijna een jaar en ik vind het geweldig hoe ze haar kennis deelt en (moeilijke) onderwerpen leuk maakt om naar te kijken en ervan te leren. Ik heb mijn Nederlands heel erg verbeterd sinds ik haar kanaal ontdekte en lid van haar Patreon werd. Probeer het eens als je op een leuke en betaalbare manier Nederlands wilt leren! :)

Heel goed gedaan! Ik kan me niet voorstellen hoeveel werk dat is om zo'n cursus te ontwikkelen. Dank je wel!

De video’s, de quizzes (ik ben er dol op!), de audiobestanden zijn echt een grote plus en maken de les levendiger. Ze zorgen ook ervoor dat ik me minder alleen voel!! Het voelt alsof Kim me aanmoedigt! En uiteraard helpt het veel om te onthouden. Kims lessen zijn allemaal goed georganiseerd. Ze legt alles ontzettend duidelijk uit: qua eenvoudige onderwerpen maar ook en vooral qua moeilijke onderwerpen. Alles is helder. Kim is een professionele docent en iedereen kan het zien. Dat maakt echt het verschil. Heus waar, hoor. Mijn grootse ontdekking, zijn de 3 video’s over ER. Wat zijn ze goed gemaakt! Niemand (in mijn ogen) legt zo goed “er” uit als Kim. Ik heb zoveel geleerd en begrepen dankzij Kim.

"Dutchies To Be" is as close to one-on-one teacher to learner as can be imagined looking at a computer screen. I have enjoyed the Dutch for Higher Intermediates Course immensely. The duration of the individual videos is optimal, and Kim does her best to make them entertaining, as well as practical. What is most satisfying is that I feel I am making good progress even though I do not live in the Netherlands.

I started to learn Dutch and from the beginning I learned Dutch with Kim. Her online courses are amazing and her videos on you Tube are great. I am now already enrolled in the course Dutch or higher intermediates and I love it! It is worth the money. I can highly recommend Kim, she is a great Dutch teacher!!!

FAQs
do you have a question?
Find the answers to the most common questions here!
If you have a basic knowledge of Dutch and can understand most of my A2 videos (with or without Dutch subtitles), then this course is probably a good fit!
To be sure, you can take the placement test on my website. If you score A2 or B1, your level matches this course!
If after enrollment it turns out it’s not the right fit, we can switch you to another course or issue a full refund—both options are available within the first 14 days of registration.
With the A2 course you will build a strong foundation in Dutch, so you can form sentences without any issues. In the B1 course, we will zoom into more complex grammatical subjects and conversational topics, so you will become more confident when speaking Dutch.
This is a self-study course, with all lessons pre-recorded and subtitled in both English and Dutch. Each lesson comes with downloadable PDFs containing all the explanations.
The advantage? You can follow the course as many times as you like, whenever it suits you, and entirely at your own pace! Please note: (Live) tutoring is not included.
You can learn all the theory with my YouTube videos for free. I believe that every human being has the right on information and that it should be free. But if you want to dive deeper, then this course is for you!
So, this course does not only include my YouTube videos, but also another 75+ hours worth of (downloadable) study-materials with which you can practice with what you’ve learned and to take your Dutch to the next level!
You can start the course right away after completing your payment!
If you study at least 5 hours a week, you can finish this course in about 16 weeks (this is an average of previous students!)
But you will keep lifelong access to the course, even after finishing it!
There’s no end date—you only need to pay once, and you’ll get unlimited access to the entire course, which you can follow at your own pace!
The Certificate of Completion is for personal use only. It’s not an official document and cannot be used to apply for a residence permit or job. For those purposes, you’ll need to take the official national NT2 exams, such as the Inburgeringsexamen or Staatsexamen NT2.
However, this course follows the CEFR standards (Common European Framework of Reference) for reaching the B1 level—so you’ll be well prepared to take those exams with confidence later on!
Your satisfaction is my priority! If you purchase a course and realize it’s not the right fit, you can request a full refund within 14 days—no questions asked.Please note: refunds are no longer possible after the 14-day period.
In most countries, you can pay on the website using a credit card, with PayPal, or via Klarna or Afterpay (using your IBAN). You’ll be enrolled in the course immediately after payment.
If your payment fails on the website, don't hesitate to get in touch with me. I can send you a payment link for iDEAL, PayPal, or a bank transfer. (This is always in euros). Just keep in mind that this option may take a bit more time to process your enrollment—it could take a few days.
If you cannot find the answer here, you can contact me by email. I usually respond within 48 hours.
