goeie leraar en les matriaal. alles helemaal duidelijk

Good course but unbelievably expensive if you take into account the number of participants (~12 in my case). A private teacher is double the cost but with half the time you make 10x improvements. not worth it. Excellent teacher anyway!

I had a very nice experience studying Japanese on the beginner level with a diverse group of follow enthusiasts. The teacher of this course was very capable, as a Japanese native she could share with us much cultural information and more informal habits in Japanese language that were not included in the course material. The class was very interactive and personal.

The dedication from Ruby and the teachers are excellent. The excellent teacher Michiel is a very intelligent man, he knows how to simplify the method in the sense that it matches the student's skills. Overall, I highly recommend this school for students and professionals. I took the right choice of program : One week Intensive course. The excursions with the teacher Kristof was absolutely brilliant ! I am very satisfied with my learning experience with UVA Talens.

I was passing 2 Dutch courses in UvA - intensive one and a regular one. Really great place to learn languages. Nice study material, friendly teachers ready to spend extra time with you. Mostly motivated students go there, so you are learning in a really encouraging atmosphere. Planning to continue to study there. Friend who had to change UvA to a different school was really unhappy and is willing to come back.

Jättebra kurs!! It was a very good course with a small group which meant we had lots of time to practice together. The material goes fairly quickly, and it’s a light hearted course so the fun level is high!

I have followed intermediate and advanced level Dutch courses at UvA Talen and it has been a great experience so far. All the teachers are really professional, always ready to help and compassionate. Yes they are compassionate :) More focusing on speaking practices or extra lesson/level for speaking skills (more than one) would make it even better.

Too many people in the course, and I was not notified anywhere in advance on how big the group could be. The teacher wasn't correcting us enough, also not the best approach for learning. I understood a bit more on how sentences are built reading by my own somewhere else that waiting for the course to actually explain that (so everything was just using intuition or getting used to it "just because", without much explanation). There were barely any students left in the group by the 6th class, I think that reflects how it went.

Ik heb er privé cursus Frans gevolgd (laatste contact maart 2018) en raad iedereen af een cursus bij Uva talen te volgen. • Geen coördinatie UVA-talen en slechte organisatie van de cursus • Afspraken niet willen nakomen, zelfs niet als deze zwart op wit staan • Gebrekkige faciliteiten • Klachten worden niet gehoord en niet onbevooroordeeld behandeld door de directeur. Hij is telefonisch niet bereikbaar. • Geen toegevoegde waarde van UVA talen, anders dan het in contact brengen met docenten • Het enige wat goed is, is de gekozen naam “Uva talen” – dit suggereert (maar is alles behalve!) de kwaliteit van de Universiteit van Amsterdam Bovenstaande feedback heeft betrekking op het “instituut” Uva talen en niet op mijn docenten.

I took the intensive cursus, over a week, and it was a very good choice. Meeting different teachers keeps you interested and motivated. Afternoon excursion are well chosen, personalized and a good way to put in practice the morning lessons. I strongly recommend it!
