Course types at Business Talen Rotterdam

The teacher comes to your company and teaches a small group of colleagues. This is not only practical it also creates recognition: the subject matter directly connects to your industry, your client communication, and your team's daily work.

​

Before the course begins, the teacher individually meets each participant through a 15-minute conversation, followed by a 30-minute written test. Based on those results, the teacher puts together a group programme tailored to the starting level and learning objectives of all participants. Each participant also has the opportunity to indicate which areas they would like to focus on.

​

• Class duration: 2 hours per lesson

• Minimum lessons: 15 lessons

• Location: At your office

The private language course is the most personal and flexible way to learn a language. You have the teacher's full attention and learn exactly what you need — no unnecessary material, no pace that doesn't suit you. The lesson is entirely tailored to your field of work and learning goals, whether you want to give presentations, write professionally, or need a language for daily client contact.

​

The teacher comes to your office, or you attend lessons at our training centre in Capelle aan den IJssel. The time is arranged by mutual agreement. Before the course begins, the teacher conducts an individual 15-minute intake with you, followed by a 30-minute written level assessment. Based on that, your teacher draws up a personalised programme.

​

Private lessons are particularly suited to business professionals who want to develop targeted skills for meetings, presentations, or negotiations; to expats who want to learn Dutch quickly; and to anyone who values personal attention and a flexible lesson schedule.

​

• Lesson duration: 1.5 hours per lesson

• Minimum lessons: 15 lessons

• Location: At your office or at our location in Capelle aan den IJssel

Do you need to communicate in a foreign language quickly? Then intensive language training is the way to go. In a short period of time, you build a solid linguistic foundation, enabling you to speak and write confidently even under pressure. A full intensive programme consists of 20 lessons of 1.5 hours per week. It's a demanding schedule — and that's exactly the point.

​

During the free introductory lesson, your teacher assesses whether intensive language training is feasible and worthwhile for you. If a fully intensive programme is too demanding, we offer the semi-intensive language course as an alternative: you learn at an accelerated pace, but with more room for consolidation and lasting language skills. The programme is always put together in consultation and takes your specific goals into account — whether that involves presentations, professional writing, or specialised terminology.

​

• Lesson duration: 1.5 hours per lesson

• Intensive programme: 20 lessons per week

• Alternative: Semi-intensive language training at an accelerated pace

• Location: On-site or online
