Learn moreA unique and brilliant way of teaching languages. - Stephen Fry in Rescuing the Spectacled Bear
Looking for a convenient intermediate language course that fits your lifestyle and gets you speaking a new language in a matter of weeks, not years? The original no-books, no-homework, no-memorizing method is in tune with the way the brain prefers to receive, store and retrieve information. You'll stick with it because you'll love it.
Improve your Dutch naturally and unforgettably without strain or stress.
Learn from listening and speaking, without the pressure of writing or memorizing.
Build up your Dutch in manageable steps by thinking out answers for yourself.
How does it work?
For 50 years, Michel Thomas worked on decoding languages into their most essential component parts. These 'building blocks' are introduced sequentially so that you reconstruct the language for yourself - to form your own sentences, to say what you want, when you want. Within the very first hour you will be able to construct complex phrases by listening and thinking out answers for yourself without the pressure of writing or stress of having to memorize.
You will learn at your own pace, pausing and responding where necessary, and complete the 4-hour course in about 15-20 hours. By the end of the Intermediate course, you will have a solid working knowledge of French and be able to express yourself confidently in a variety of situations. You can continue to review and practice with the additional 1-hour Review course.

Michel Thomas (1914-2005) had an amazing life. Born in Poland, he spent his early years in Germany and then in France, where he studied psychology at the Sorbonne in Paris. When war broke out, he fought with the Resistance and suffered imprisonment in labour camps. At the end of the war he joined the US liberation army and later settled in the US where he established his world-famous language school. Languages, being his strength and passion became the focus of the next 50 years of his life that he spent developing a method that he hoped would change the way we teach and learn - so that everyone could succeed. He developed this method 'that works with the brain'. After creating several courses of his own, he passed on his method so that other teachers might use it too.
Cobie Adkins-de Jong and Els Van Geyte are native Dutch speakers and experienced teachers of Dutch. Cobie used to teach German to adults at the Brasshouse Language Centre in Birmingham, while Els teaches at the University of Birmingham and writes Academic English text books.
