15 Dutch General Courses for adults in Netherlands

In this course, you will take 15 hours of classes per week, all of which are based on content that you personally want to study. The home tuition programme takes place in your teacher’s home in Rotterdam, making this an immersive method of studying Dutch and taking your abilities to the next level.

Rotterdam is a large city, but with the help of your host family you’ll quickly learn where all the best entertainment and services are located - and the city’s reliable public transport system will get you there easily. As is the case throughout the Netherlands, getting around by bicycle is safe and practical. Rotterdam certainly has an international population, but you can be assured that most of the people you will encounter in daily life are locals and Dutch speakers, so you will have abundant opportunities to practise your communication skills.

As a student on the HLI home tuition programme, you can get in touch with their Local Organisers working in Rotterdam to communicate any issues about your course or accommodation, and they will respond immediately to ensure you have the best experience possible.

For those learners who don’t have any particular hurry or urgency when it comes to improving their French, the Classic course offered by InTuition in Montpellier is the best option - with a very manageable 15 hours of lessons per week. In practice, your total exposure to French will be much greater than 15 hours per week, due to the combined factors of living in Montpellier and living with a local homestay family in their home. You can take your learning at your own pace, and perhaps give more of your time to exploring what the surrounding city has to offer.

Your homestay family will provide you with breakfast, lunch and dinner - something that will save you time, and also create the opportunity for you to sit down together and have a chat in French about life, French culture, or just the weather.
