What is the Dutch Brainwash method?
The Dutch Brainwash is an intensive one-week course that helps you speak Dutch freely and naturally without the fear of making mistakes. Instead of memorising grammar rules, you’ll learn how to think in Dutch and express yourself confidently in real conversations by learning a couple of logical and consistent rules. The most important drivers
of a language instead if endless theoretical grammar…
It’s fast, fun, and proven to work for other students. But… you have to keep using the knowledge in real life!
How long does an average course at Talencoach last?
The main program, the Dutch Brainwash, runs for one week, seven full days of immersion and practice.
If needed, after the Brainwash, I can still work with you individually, in person or online and there is a second live course Dutch Mastery that I can offer…
What is the difference between Talencoach, the Delftse Methode and the Nuns of Vught?
That’s a great question and one that many people ask before choosing a Dutch course.
All three methods help people learn Dutch, but they do so in very different ways.
The Delftse Methode is a highly structured, academic approach developed by TU Delft. It focuses on vocabulary frequency and text-based repetition great for students who like studying rules and memorising phrases.
The Nuns of Vught (Regina Coeli) are famous for their immersive, traditional language institute. Their courses are intensive and professional, often focusing on grammar, pronunciation, and formal conversation ideal for executives or corporate learners.
Talencoach, on the other hand, takes a completely different path.
Through the Dutch Brainwash method, you don’t learn rules first you learn to think and speak in Dutch right away. It’s a fast, creative and highly personal system that focuses on real conversation, humour, and mindset.
Rather than memorising sentences, you learn how Dutch works naturally — so you can speak confidently and enjoy the process.
Can I also take Dutch lessons online?
Yes! BUT…
Individual online sessions are only available for Dutch Brainwash graduates.
Who is the Brainwash course for?
The Brainwash is ideal for New Dutchies, international professionals, expats, families, and anyone who wants to finally master Dutch without traditional lessons.
No matter your level, beginner or advanced. If you’re ready to commit one week, I’ll help you make a breakthrough and make you will have fun learning Dutch. With a great intensity and a laserbeam focus of 7 days, you’ll finally find that clarity and confidence that you
need…
How quickly can I become fluent in Dutch?
That depends on your motivation and how often you use the language afterwards.
Most participants already notice a dramatic improvement in confidence and fluency within one week.
After the Brainwash, you’ll be able to continue learning faster because you finally understand how Dutch works.
What’s the difference between a coaching session and a Dutch lesson?
Traditional lessons focus on books and grammar.
Coaching sessions, on the other hand, are completely about you your goals, your mindset, and how you can communicate naturally.
It’s not about learning rules; it’s about transforming how you use the language by learning consistent rules.
