What you'll be able to do

Dutch for Daily Life takes you from understanding the grammar to understanding Dutch people. The course is built around the situations integration exams and real life throw at you: the GP, the school gate, the landlord, the office kitchen. Expect idioms, speed listening and absolutely no embarrassment about making noise in class.
