Course description

Dutch Moduel 6B is a follow up course to Dutch 6A. The course is an advanced course of Dutch as a second language (NT2) and covers the second half of the material of a regular Dutch Module 6 course.

In Dutch Module 6B, all core language skills are practised — speaking, listening, writing and reading. The course focuses on formal and informal language use related to topics from everyday life in the Netherlands.
