Dutch is challenging they say...
Learning a new language is always a journey filled with challenges and triumphs, and reaching the A1 level in Dutch is no exception. As A1 students, one of the most common struggles is overcoming the initial fear of speaking. Many learners find it daunting to engage in even the simplest conversations, worrying about making mistakes or not being understood. This fear can be paralyzing and often leads to a lack of practice, which is crucial for improvement.
Another significant hurdle at the A1 level is grasping the basics of Dutch grammar. Concepts like sentence structure, verb conjugations, and the use of definite and indefinite articles can be confusing. Without a clear and structured approach, these foundational elements can feel overwhelming, causing students to feel stuck and unsure of how to progress.
Vocabulary is another area where A1 students often hit a roadblock. Knowing the right words to use in everyday situations is essential, but building a robust vocabulary takes time and consistent effort. Many students struggle with finding effective ways to memorize and recall new words, which can make everyday conversations challenging.
Cultural nuances and understanding the context in which certain phrases or idioms are used is another area where A1 students often falter. Language is not just about words and grammar; it's also about the cultural context in which it is used. Without exposure to authentic Dutch scenarios, students may find it difficult to understand and use the language naturally.
This is where my course comes in. Designed specifically to address these common struggles, my A1 to A2 Dutch MasterCourse provides a comprehensive and engaging approach to language learning.
Our students love the classes
To be able to successfully hold conversations in The Netherlands without it breaking into English. I am definitely able to say now that I can "speak Dutch". This was my goal and it is the foothold I needed before moving.
Matt
I really like Joyce's classes. They're helpful and fun and she explains things to me very easily. I mostly struggle with the sentence structure, and this has improved so much since starting with Joyce.
Rosalind
Joyce makes her classes really structured and easy for me to follow. It just makes sense. I can ask her anything and she will easily explain them to me. She has great patience and helps me to feel at ease in her classes when I find things difficult.

Hoi, ik ben Joyce!
As a native Dutchie, born and bred in Nijmegen, the Netherlands, having lived in 3 countries and polyglot of knowing more than 8 languages, it's not a surprising fact that I love languages and culture.

You are able to happily express yourself in Dutch in daily and authentic conversations.
This is my method to help my current students ease into Dutch and embrace their inner Dutchie so that they feel comfortable having real conversations without shutting down.

When do we begin?
You can start at any point. This is a self-paced course, so you can move through each section at your own pace. However, you will get emails from me to keep you on track.
How does this course work?
The course is set up in 6 weeks with 6 different themes. In each week you will get 3 videos where you will have a class with me as if you are live in class with me. Each video has a purpose as shown in the course details on this page. At the end of each video you will have all the tools you need to practice on your own. This is your fast track option.
The other option is to commit to one video lesson and exercises a week. This means that in 18 weeks you will have received A1.5 level from a starter A1!
To accompany that, there are many exercises, games and vocabulary tools that will help you to reach the level and have fun along the way. I will guide you along with that so that the steps are easy and fun to take.
To put everything even more so in practice, we have a weekly conversation class (at different times and days to suit everyone's schedule) where we can practice things like our pronunciation, grammar, sentences and our confidence in having a conversation with each other. I don't believe in mistakes, we are simply learning and trying. The more you try and put yourself out there with me/us, the more confidence you will get!!
There is also a community where you can ask questions and chat with other students, as well as ask me for feedback.

How much time should I dedicate to learning Dutch?
There is a lot of material for you to go through. That said, you can make the course as intense as you want. You can easily work on your Dutch 10 hours a week, or less, up to you! This is definitely a course that is suited to your lifestyle and schedule. That said, there will be 1-1.5 hour live class each week. There are also 3 videos that will be about half an hour each (around 1.5 hours). Then there are exercises as well. I suggest to spend at least 1 hour a week at your exercises. This will then come to 4-5 hours of studying each week. Again, you can do what you can do with your schedule. Trust that your learning will grow in time and that everything happens as it should be. I do recommend that ideally you spend at least 5-10 minutes each day to your practice. Especially in the beginning you will see that continuous practice and repetition really does help with speaking confidently!
Is the course 'live'?
Most of the course is self-paced. This means you can go through all the material, video lessons and exercises at your own pace. The recorded classes are there as well for your learning. The buddy classes are live and you can practice there with the other students. If needed, you can always book in a private session to work more on your Dutch!
What is the time schedule for the classes?
The classes are self paced, so there is no need to be available.
Is this price just a one time fee?
YES!! How good is that? You just pay $450 AUD and for that you get a full library of content as well as 16 classes to practice your Dutch.
Is there a payment plan?
Yes! You can pay in 3 installments if you feel like this course is for you, but you want to split your payments a bit more. Still a bit too much?! Then email me at dutchwithjoyce@gmail.com to speak about other options.
How long will I have access to the course?
This is a self-paced course that you will have life-time access to. Even though you can't start right now, you can always start and learn at your own pace and in your own time.
How can I pay?

Why should I start this journey with you?
I have been teaching many happy students for over 5 years. As a polyglot myself, I know and understand the struggles of learning a language. On top of that, I am a certified teacher and life coach. I know everything about mindset and the way the brain works. This all combined together, I've found the perfect formula to learn a language.
On top of that, I truly believe in making learning as easy and as fun as possible. Students who work with me know this and love this most about me. They love my jokes, making the material relatable, my great tips and tricks, my enthusiasm and most of all my patience.
I teach Dutch, because I love languages and culture. Because I am patriotic and love my background. But most of all because I love helping people and am a great teacher and guide to help you see the structure of the Dutch language and become better at your own practice every day. This course is unlike every other course you've seen. It's complete, it's fun, it's understandable.

What level will I be at after I finish the course?

3x 'yes, but'
#1 I don't know if I have time
Buy it now and do it later. If you buy a ticket now, you will still get it for a really low price. After this first round, the price will go up, so you will have it for the lowest price ever!
#2 I'm bad at learning
Everyone can learn something, so can you! Especially with my step by step and fun system! The fact that you've found your way to this page, shows that you've learned how to use the internet ;). You've also learned English and there are at least 1500 words that are the same or similar to English.
#3 I don't know if this is for me
Fair enough! Check in with yourself: how is your Dutch going? Do you feel like you might need a little help, feedback or motivation? Yes? Then this is for you. It is nothing like the mainstream courses. This course is fun, interactive and you don't feel like you're learning!

Joyce Diebels
Since 2019 I have been helping many adults & kids to learn Dutch the fun way. After learning 6 languages in High School, becoming fluent in English whilst living in the US, I moved to Australia in 2017 to follow my dream.
One of those dreams is to help other people learn Dutch in such a way that they fall in love with learning, the language and our culture. I believe learning is fun and it improves the learning pace and enthusiasm of learning Dutch. My goal is to help English speaking people learn Dutch with ease and joy!
