What our clients say:
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
About “Tussentaal voor beginners”:
This is an excellent compendium of ways how to sound like a local and how to understand them better.
The focus of the book is on pronunciation but the exercises will also enrich your vocabulary.
I strongly recommend this book to anyone who already knows the official Flemish but also wants to use the everyday language spoken by the people.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
About “Snapt ge?”:
This book is so helpful. It’s basically what is often missing in the typical Dutch classes in Belgium, the real spoken language. Although my level of Netherlands was quite good I still often missed the meaning of certain expressions. This book really helped me to fill in the blanks and I’m enjoying my conversations in Dutch more.
Funny enough after I learned some of these phrases it feels like I’m often hearing them from friends/family/colleagues, I guess before they would just go over my head, but now I can recognize them. 🙂

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
About “Hoe zit het?”:
I really enjoyed the reading, it’s easy to follow and the examples are really useful. I liked the exercises and I think it covers a lot of verbs that you can use in daily life, in conversations with friends or in a working environment.
