A1-A2 Dutch course
upgrade to intermediate dutch in 12 weeks
Start speaking Dutch in no time with this self-paced A2 course!
Do you relate to this?
- You’ve learned the basics, but now you’re stuck in the present tense—and want to say more.
- You understand simple Dutch, but conversations still feel too fast or too complex.
- You hesitate when speaking because you’re unsure about word order, verbs, and sentence structure.
- You want to build your vocabulary and grammar — but in a way that actually sticks.
- You’re ready to go beyond the basics, but you need a clear path (and a bit of fun) to keep going.
You’ve come to the right place — now let’s get started!

One of the best resources for self learning Dutch! Ik heb vorige jaar mijn inburgering examens geslaagd dankzij jou curses!

After being disappointed with some other online courses, I found Kim's Youtube channel "Dutchies to be" and decided to purchase the Dutch for Intermediates Course. I really like Kim's approach. She is really well-structured and she explains in an easy and fun way how the Dutch Grammar and works, while providing some real-life vocabulary and situations where to use it. I totally recommend Kim's courses for anyone planning to learn Dutch!

I have been studying Dutch language for some time already. What I like about Kim’s program is that it is online, but still feels interactive thanks to video’s, YouTube channel, Quizlet, etc. Another advantage of studying with Kim is that she does not leave you at A2 level, but continues beyond that covering B1 and partially B2 scope. I really hope that she will record her even more advanced courses.

Kim is the best teacher in the whole Netherlands. She explains the topic in a funny and interesting way. Also her way of speaking is easy for understanding. Her courses and YouTube videos are very useful and make learning Dutch much more easier. Thank you for what you're doing for us :)

Great experience with Kim! I've enrolled into A0>A1 and A1>A2. Both are really complete and clear! With a lot of practice material.

I really enjoyed learning Dutch with Kim. The course is well structured and Kim explains grammar very clear and gives good examples and summaries. Kim also provides the opportunity to learn vocabulary on Quizlet, which I really like.

After following Kim's videos on YouTube for the last year, I decided to enroll in her "Dutch for Intermediates" class. I am very happy with the quality of the materials and the extra information that Kim has provided in her courses. The videos are high quality. The instruction is provided in clear and easy to understand language. I will be taking the remaining courses/programs!

Thanks to Kim I was able to take a huge step in improving my Dutch. Not only are the lessons very interesting, but thanks to the many exercises I can practice everything said in the videos. For the price you get much more than you would expect. Kim is the best teacher and I am glad I found her Youtube channel and courses :) I highly recommend, you definitely won't regret it!

- You want to study in your own time, at your own pace.
It’s not for you if
- You’re too advanced (B1 or above), except when you want to specifically revise certain aspects for A2-grammar.

FAQs
do you have a question?
Find the answers to the most common questions here!
If you have some basic knowledge of Dutch grammar but you can’t follow my YouTube videos without English subtitles yet, then this is probably a good fit!
To be sure, you can take the placement test on my website. If you score A1/A2, your level matches this course!
If, after enrollment, it turns out the course is too easy or too difficult, we can switch you to the A1-course or to the B1-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 60+ 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 12 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 a 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 A2 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.
