This is the first time I’ve really noticed a big improvement. Not just in my Dutch skills, but also in my confidence to actually speak the language. The method from his book and podcast is brilliant, and Max’s lessons are insanely entertaining. He’s such a great teacher! Hartelijk bedankt!
Max uses a method that feels the most natural way of learning a new language. His classes are fun and effective. I have been learning Dutch with him almost 2 years and I am quite happy with his classes and his method.
A fantastic place to learn not only more about Dutch the language, but Dutch the culture and Dutch the people 😀 Would strongly recommend if you’re interested in Dutch.
Any doubts or questions?
It’s really helpful for students, especially it is good for beginners A1-A2. Interesting story accompanied with audio guide helped me to learn a lot of new words. And the best part is that the book is written with real language used by locals. So it’s highly recommended if you want to learn Natuurlijk Nederlands!
Reading Max’s book was a great way to learn Dutch! Its fun stories teach tons of vocabulary that is useful for everyday conversations and provide insight into common Dutch situations (schools, children, meeting friends, etc.) 10/10 recommendation!
Max’s method not only helped me to finally learn Dutch, but also to find the language more appealing. The stories he tells are very relatable to the expat life which made me feel understood and connected to the plots. With the basics I have now, I feel more comfortable communicating in Dutch wherever I go.
