Fees?
You can have a look at the fees page, but the general idea is this:
– group courses: 10€ per person per hour, 220€ for a 22hr course
(but 12,50/hr for summer courses)
– private courses: 50€ per person per hour (35€ for students).
– books (Waterval 1/6, from 0-A1 to B2-C1): 35€ apiece.
– online access (drills and listening here, vocabulary and speaking here) 10€.
Teaching philosophy?
Everybody’s welcome! Whether kid or adult, migrant or refugee: please come over and have a look.
Yet, the school appears to attract mostly “expats”, internationals.
At Waterval!, expect to work in small groups with people who are genuinely interested in Dutch, and in their fellow students. Interaction guaranteed!
Waterval! is also kind of a language lab. How can you improve teaching (Dutch)?
With lots of trial and error, I developed six books.
Full of clear explanation of grammar and lots of vocabulary and speaking exercises.
There is also the online part, with a lot of thing to listen to and drill rules and words.
In the books and in class, there are always plenty of incentives to make you speak and drill speech bits. Waterval I-VI covers the whole gamut, from level 0 (scratch) to C levels!
Besides, I’m trying to develop an online game to guide you through it all.
To play a little, and to process everything.
After you’ve studied the other exercises online, in class, and in the books.
Some parts of it are ready – ask for them!
