As a BVNT2-certified, TPRS-trained, experienced Dutch language trainer, I combine the best of stories with the best of textbooks. For one simple reason: easy fun learning - serious results!
After StoryDutch A2>B1, I have also made Learn Dutch with Victor A0>A2 available in PRINT (you can buy it in my webshop from May 6).
Yes, these are real books! They offer STORIES to acquire high-frequency and high-value vocabulary and grammar. The magic of storytelling and the power of fun reading cannot be found in regular textbooks.
Why do textbooks have to be such a struggle? Who decided that intelligent individuals need complex materials? My bright students enjoy learning Dutch with Victor because its simplicity provides a welcome relief during their demanding workdays.
I have given myself a challenge though: OfficeDutch B1>B2. I already have the outlines of the stories, but a lot of work goes into creating the images for the comic strips and implementing the most useful target structures. The story will be about Victor working as a logistics manager at a family-run stroopwafel factory.
