You will learn this

During the course, you'll experience what a child with insufficient Dutch proficiency experiences in your group. This will help you understand what these children need. We'll cover phonics, vocabulary, word and sentence structure, speaking, methodologies, and intercultural skills. These form the foundation for effective Dutch as a Second Language education for children with a non-Dutch speaking background.

During the process you will receive many practical tools that you can start using right away.
