Advice
You do a test and meet with an employee who will advise you on a course or activities to practice Dutch.
- Bring valid proof of identity
The Dutch Language House informs you about different options: Dutch for beginners or advanced learners, fast learning or just at a slower pace, oral and written courses, in different municipalities in Brussels, both during the day and in the evening. Based on a test and on your situation, we advise a Dutch course.
Signing up for a course
After getting an advice, you decide wether or not to sign up for the course.
