Taalthuis - Utrecht

Taalthuis operates across ten Dutch cities: Amsterdam, Haarlem, Utrecht, Den Haag, Leiden, Eindhoven, Den Bosch, Hilversum, Amersfoort, and Wassenaar. The school targets higher-educated expats, au pairs, and international students who can communicate in English at an elementary level. Their motto "Taalthuis makes learning fun!" reflects a teaching approach that emphasizes enjoyment alongside language acquisition. Courses span from complete beginner (A0) through to near-native proficiency (C1), with specialized offerings including conversation courses, a Dutch Culture Course at A2 level, and Introduction courses specifically for au pairs. The curriculum divides into structured progressions: Beginners Basic (A0-A1), Beginners Plus (A0-A2), Intermediate (A1-A2), Advanced (A2-B1), High Advanced (B1-B2), and To Perfection (B2-C1). Each level splits into parts for manageable progression. Self-study options and e-learning provide flexibility for independent learners. Free level-check consultations help students find their starting point. The school holds both NRTO and CRKBO quality certifications. Small group sizes ensure personalized attention, while the headquarters in Haarlem coordinates operations across all locations.
