** Please note: This is a SELF-PACED class. NO LIVE meetings will be held** Hallo iedereen! -- Hello everyone! Do you prefer to study independently? Are the times that the live classes are offered not working out for you? Do you like to take your time and process the material in your own time? You can now take my "Intro to Dutch (Nederlands)" course as a self-paced course aka an asynchronous course since there are no live meetings! Each week, for 10 weeks, I post videos of myself teaching the class using Google Slides. One lesson is broken up into smaller bitesize videos/sections. Enrolled students will have access to videos and can watch them that week on their own time. The videos can be paused and re-watched. Students can post questions in the classroom or student/teacher tab. The enrolled learners also get access to slides and can use these for the audio recordings (optional, but very helpful since I will be able to give feedback on their pronunciation of the words). The students record themselves (can be voice only), post these in the teacher/student tab, I listen to the recordings and give feedback. All my lessons come with worksheets. Students can work on these to practice the material. If students want to hand in their work, they can do so by posting a screenshot or picture of their work in a private message to me. I go over the worksheets for that week in the last video of that week. The students have a week to work on them and then I go over the answers to the worksheets from the previous week in the first video of the following week. The students will also have access to a ton of extra material: interactive worksheets, clips, songs, etc. to further practice the material. Self-Paced classes are great for learners who like to study independently, for students who want to go at their own pace, or for students for whom my live classes are too early or late.
