Dear Friends,
Due to a shoulder that is not working 100%, I
cannot teach immersion courses in the next few weeks. But the good news is:
now there is room for private
sessions (until September 20th), mail me if you are
interested: info@learndutchfast.nl.
The next
immersion course will start September 24th (Level 1.5, designed
for students who have learned about Dutch, but have had no
opportunity/confidence to speak it.)
If you would like to see some impressions of an immersion course, click here.
This beautiful movie is made by
Valerie, one of the participants of last week’s Total Immersion 1, mostly
during the breaks. If you like this movie, I will ask her to make a new
movie of the next immersion class with some of the activities as well, as
an observer ;-)
The blooper
is done by my dog Mister, who suddenly seemed to think that the camera was
a toy ;-)
In case you wonder about the very ripe bananas in the clip, here is the recipe of the cookies we made with
those:
“Two” Ingredient (Gluten Free) Banana
Cookies
2 very ripe bananas
oats (enough to make a good
cookie dough texture)
(You can add nuts, seeds,
raisins, cranberries, coconut etc.)
Mix bananas and oats
together and bake in the oven at 180 ºC for 15 to 20 minutes.
Eet smakelijk!
Of course, the Sunday Afternoon Language Exchange Dog Walk will go on, as well
as the Game Night:

There will be two groups:
one group of people who would like to speak Dutch (native speakers and students) and one group for English speakers (native and

Game Night
(September 12th
) in “our” restaurant in ‘s-Graveland (19:15 – 21:30):
A professional game player will bring his favourite games for
more advanced speakers
I will have a board game about Holland/Dutch for
more beginners and New Amigos for a mixed language group

The chef will provide a simple meal that is suitable for eating while
playing, but you can of course have a regular (delicious) dinner in the
restaurant before the games start.

Please register before showing
up, so I can notify the chef ;-)
