Intermediate Dutch 301, Part 5
• This is Part 5 of a eight-part Intermediate Dutch course taught over 8 successive school terms specifically designed for Intermediate Dutch learners. All of our language courses focus on acquiring reading and conversational skills, and learning about local culture. Our courses are designed for busy people: we do not expect you to study outside of class, nor do we assign homework (unless you’d like some!). Come and spend 12 class per Term (sixteen 0.75 hour twice weekly classes) learning Dutch and about Danish culture, and have some fun too!
• Intermediate Dutch 301, Part 5 continues with intermediate conversation, vocabulary and grammar with an emphasis on speaking, proper pronunciation and listening comprehension.
• Subsequent Term courses of Dutch (i.e. our Dutch 302-304 courses) continue to emphasize reading, grammar, vocabulary, and conversation and will continue in the same time slot for the duration of the course (unless otherwise agreed upon with the instructor).
Week by week new material will be posted throughout the duration of the course. Video recordings of each session are posted here approximately 1-2 days after each class.

Live Zoom sessions or Video-Recordings
• Our courses offer distance learning options: Live-streamed Hamilton classes are available via free Zoom software for those living living anywhere in the world with a decent internet connection. Live-streaming allows you to participate fully in your own learning, ask questions of the instructor and participate fully in the same way as if you were in the physical classroom.
• Those unable to attend the scheduled date and time of the actual class sessions, or those who need to miss a class or two due to previous engagements or unexpected illness, can watch any or all of the live-recorded video sessions on their computers, laptops, tablets or mobile devices and study at their own pace and in their own time.
• Detailed instructions on how to access our distance learning components will be sent after completing your registration. There are no additional fees for this service. However, distance learners will need access to a desktop or laptop computer with a good quality web-camera (tablet devices and mobile phones can also access our live-streamed classes), a built-in microphone (most modern laptops have built-in microphones) or a headset with a microphone. You will also need to download and install the free Zoom software on your computer or device. Those accessing the video recordings will be able to do so with a simple web browser on any device.
Those who cannot make the class meeting day and time via live Zoom sessions may consider accessing this course through the weekly recorded video sessions. Class videos are usually posted within 1-2 days of each live class session and are available for your own personal learning on a day and time of your choosing.
• This course has no assignments, quizzes, tests or exams.
• You will not need to purchase any reading materials.
• All classes encourage questions and group discussion.
• PDFs of class presentations and video recordings of each session are posted approximately 1-2 days after each session for the duration of the course. You are most welcome to relax, take part in, and enjoy each session!
• There are no refunds for missed classes. If you miss a class, you can watch the video recording!
• Please note that if no one shows up for a particular class, either in person or via Zoom, we will make every attempt to postpone the class and make it up at the end of the Term. However, this may not always be possible. Teachers are not required to teach a class if no students show up, but the teacher has the discretion to record a video with no students present if s/he is unable to postpone a class. Please email or text your teachers if you are unable to attend any specific class session.
• Guests of registered participants are welcome to attend a single session without registering.
• If, however, this course is cancelled due to insufficient enrolments please note that your registration fee will either be refunded in full or you may select to receive a course credit. Your choice!
All materials are included in the course fees. These are developed by our instructors and distributed as PDF files as the course progresses.
• Course materials are provided to all registered students as digital materials made available to you on the course webpage for download (accessible after registration). There is no need to purchase any additional textbooks for this course, although you may choose to do so to supplement your learning.
• You will only require a pen or pencil, a notebook for taking your own class notes, and a loose-leaf binder. Any notes that our instructor writes on our class digital notepad are posted to the class webpage on your dashboard as a PDF file so that you can print these out at home and add them to your own notebook.
A keen desire to continue your Dutch learning!
