Good

It was amazing, if you didn't understand something it allowed you to go back and redo the lesson untill you could understand. I liked the wide variety of activities they asked you to do.

Very well made, with the focus on grammar that I needed.

I took the online Dutch course and overall my experience with it is very good. It was very practical to be able to do the lectures in my own time and without a fixed schedule. My meetings with the teacher were very useful to practice listening and speaking, and have the chance to ask questions. I also found the online lectures' structure to be quite good, however, I think it would be useful to have (i) more feedback on the recording/speaking exercises, since now the only feedback on the speaking part is during the sessions with a teacher; and (ii) the translating exercise should be a little more flexible, since right now only one correct translation is accepted, even when a slightly different one with exactly the same meaning is possible (including differences such as "it is / it's" ).

A bit time pressured to finish it in 3 months, but doable.

My experience with The Language Academy has been great. The teachers are kind, patient and really know how to make learning enjoyable. The classes are clear and helped me feel more confident using the language

The course was a bit of a disappointment, mainly because the language was translated to fit in the actual scene, which was somewhat arbitrary. However, you had to be able to repeat the exact same sentences, even though the meaning could be expressed with a slightly different sentence just as well. That is simply a limitation in the programme. As a student however, this almost doubles the learning time, without giving much of an advantage. A second disappointment was the way grammar was explained. A rather long and dry text gives all the information in one go, which one then has to apply in all its intricacies in the excercisis. As a teacher myself, I know the value of smal(ler) steps. All in all I worked very hard to finish the course in three month, and yes, my french improved, but certainly not as much as is needed for the level I was supposed to reach. Of course I tried some language tests and failed as both my grammar and my vocab still showed too many gabs.

Goed!

Good

I didn't fully enjoy the learning experience because I thought a lot of grammar explanation was missing, but like truly a lot. Being bombarded with words and little grammar does not really work for me as a way to learn a new language.

Very good

moeilijk maar leerzaam

It was a nice introduction to the Italian language, albeit a bit steep of a learning curve at times.

Methinks the course was useful and enjoyable. It teaches reading, comprehension, listening writing , writing and much more. Annoying thing, however, was sometimes the dialogues that were spoken by a man in some sections. He spoke very fast and it was impossible to catch words from hearing. In addition, the credited errors are annoying. Sometimes when I wrote a sentence with a lowercase letter and that was the only mistake, the whole sentence was not credited. Little inflection regarding the answer . you had to learn by heart what translation the sentence expects , and at least one word put together differently in English spoiled the whole answer, where the meaning was the same. However, I recommend this course because it helped me a lot. It could only be useful to improve it slightly, as I wrote above. Translated with DeepL.com (free version)

My experience was positive. I had an online course for Dutch beginners and I think that it gave me the necessary tools to have an everyday conversation. The material was throughout and well-presented.
