About the Language Booster Writing B1 Dutch
Do you feel unsure about writing emails and reports? Would you like to practice structuring and organizing a text? Or do you want to work on the tone of your message and get to the point more quickly? This Writing Language Booster will bring your writing skills up to level B1. You’ll practice writing texts and refining them. You’ll also learn how to effectively use AI as a tool.
In 8 Dutch lessons:
- do you know how to write a good, focused text;
- Do you know the steps you need to take when writing an email or letter?
- you have a better eye for punctuation and coherence in a text;
- you can write more concisely;
- you’ll write with more confidence and enjoyment.
In this course, you will work toward achieving a B1 level of proficiency in writing. By the end of the course, you will write more clearly, more coherently, and with greater confidence in Dutch. You will find it easier to strike the right tone, express yourself more concisely, and pay closer attention to spelling, punctuation, and coherence.
If you successfully complete the course, you will have reached the level required for the State Exam in Dutch Program I in the area of writing. It is important to note that this Language Booster is not exam preparation. During the lessons, we do not practice the specific writing exercises that appear on the exam.
After the course, you can continue with The Language Booster: Writing B2 Dutch. Or you can continue to improve your speaking skills with The Language Booster: Speaking B1 Dutch.
