Still overthinking every Dutch sentence?
In 3 months, that hesitation will be gone. You’ll speak with ease without worrying if you’re saying it right.
Is this you ...
You’ve done the courses.
So why aren’t you fluent yet?
You’ve followed multiple Dutch classes, worked through the books, maybe even passed some tests. But when it’s time to actually speak? You freeze. You second-guess yourself. You translate everything in your head before you answer.
You understand most things.
But expressing yourself still feels awkward, slow, unnatural.
Sound familiar?
The problem? Most courses stop at grammar and vocabulary, but leave you hanging when it’s time to speak.
You’re stuck in that “in-between” zone:
- Not a beginner, but not confident either.
- You almost say what you mean — but then second-guess every sentence.
- You understand your colleagues, but avoid jumping into Dutch convos.
- You know how far you’ve come… but it doesn’t feel like fluency.
Imagine this instead:
- You’re in a meeting — speaking Dutch without switching to English.
- You meet someone new and chat easily without panic or pause.
- You join group conversations without rehearsing in your head.
- You even make jokes… in Dutch.
That’s what Dutch Mastery Academy does differently.
We don’t stop at the theory.
We help you break the barrier and speak — with confidence, flow, and ease.

What would it feel like to go from saying:
"Ik spreek een beetje Nederlands" to "Ik spreek voldoende Nederlands"?
Imagine this: You get hired because of your skills, not held back by your Dutch.
You chat casually with colleagues. Laugh at Dutch jokes.
You help your kids with homework and speak to their teachers — in Dutch, without overthinking.
At a party, you don’t freeze when the conversation switches to Dutch.
You just… join in. And it feels natural. You’re not translating. You’re not hesitating. You’re connecting.
That’s the shift that happens in our B1+ conversation classes.

Don't take our word for it...
Proof it works — from students just like you.
Onlangs heb ik gevolgd de mondeling lessen met Yasmine. Mijn doel was om tenminste een keer per week Nederlands te praten met iemand die mij corrigeer. Ik vond de lessen leuk, vers en dynamisch. Werken met Yasmine was makkelijk. Ze had veel tips aan ons gegeven en ze pas altijd de les aan onze behoeften of onderwerpen dat belangrijk voor ons waren. Ik raad dit soort van les aan iedereen dat wil gewoon praten of zijn zelf beter uitdrukkingen. Yasmine ga je sowieso helpen. Het is de moeite waard.
I recommend Yasmine's group conversation class for anyone who is looking to level up their speaking skills in Dutch.
She creates a comfortable environment to speak whilst also correcting my mistakes throughout. After the lessons, she always sends notes with out corrections and any new vocabulary that we've learned.
What was especially invaluable was having access to Yasmine to answer our questions. She ales shares great recommendations for books and series in Dutch. Overall a great experience!
I've had two classes with Frouke and I've liked them a lot. I think they're a little bit above my level, but I think it's good to make it a bit challenging.
Welcome, I'm Yas!
What’s better than a certified teacher? One who’s been in your shoes.
I had to learn French in school and I hated it. Years later, I moved to France and tried learning the language again as an adult. I was working full-time, feeling overwhelmed, and constantly embarrassed that I still couldn’t speak fluently.
I went through all the struggles you're going through now:
- Trying Duolingo.
- Stressing about grammar.
- Memorizing rules that natives don’t even use.
- And still not being able to hold a conversation.
After 11 years of studying French the “traditional” way, I still couldn’t confidently talk to native speakers. I felt frustrated, behind, and like something was wrong with me.
That's why I created the Dutch Mastery Academy, so you wouldn't have to go through what I did.
And guess what? It worked.
I’ve now helped hundreds of expats learn Dutch, and even got featured in the Gazet van Antwerpen for my work.
So if you’ve ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or like maybe learning Dutch just isn’t for you — I get it. I’ve been there. But I promise you: there’s a better way. 💚

Not "just" a speaking course
It’s your speaking breakthrough.
In our conversation classes, you're not just getting the chance to improve your speaking skills. Together, we're going to be working for 3 months long on your Dutch — with structure, accountability, and real-life practice.
Here’s how it works:
For 13 weeks, we meet every week to level up your speaking.
Each session, we dive into topics you wouldn’t normally discuss in Dutch — like how to politely disagree, explain your weekend, or crack a joke at work.
Your teacher will correct your grammar and pronunciation on the spot — no awkwardness, just growth.
After class, you'll set a quick action plan for the week:
What’s one step I’ll take to practice this in real life?
We’ll keep it simple, doable, and motivating — so you actually stay consistent.
Plus, you’ll get access to a self-paced video course
Inside: reading, listening, writing and speaking exercises to boost your Dutch even more.
Perfect for the days when you don’t feel like talking but still want to make progress.
This 3-month program is designed to take you from feeling stuck to finally seeing real improvement — fast. Not just “knowing” Dutch. Actually speaking it. Every week.
€425 for 13 weeks (about €33 a week), VAT included. Or pay in 3 or 6 monthly payments.
★★★★★ "I joined DMA to prepare myself for the inburgering exam! Yasmine's course is perfect for a busy expat like me." Melissa
"The best course I've ever done"
Glyn is from England and has lived in Amsterdam for six years. He tried learning Dutch on and off for years, then found Yas on social media and just finished the B1 course.
The week-by-week structure, real feedback on his homework and the community made the difference. Now he speaks Dutch in restaurants, in shops and with his colleagues.

Questions about our conversation classes?
I’m a bit hesitant to invest in a Dutch course
Fair question, especially if you've already tried apps or courses that didn't stick. Here's what makes this different: during the week you learn the grammar and vocabulary through short videos at your own pace, and in the weekly live class (maximum 6 students at your level) you actually speak Dutch with a teacher who corrects you on the spot. That combination is why our students start speaking from week one instead of just understanding. If you show up to class and do the weekly work, speaking Dutch is the outcome this program is built around. Not sure about your level or the format? Take our free language test or send us a message on Instagram, we're happy to think along with you.
How much do the group classes cost?
€425 for 13 weeks, VAT included. That covers the weekly live classes, the video course, the group chat with your teacher and the vocabulary book. You can also pay in 3 x €159 or 6 x €85. B2+ works a bit differently: €239 for 3 months, or €409 for 6 months plus 3 months free.
Which level should I join?
Take our free 5-minute language test: learndutchwithyas.com/downloads/language-test. You'll know your exact level right away. After you sign up we double-check your placement, and if a group turns out too easy or too hard we simply switch you to another level. You'll never be stuck in the wrong group.
Which hours can I join?
You can see all current groups, days, times and start dates on our lesson schedule page: learndutchwithyas.com/learn-dutch/lesson-schedules. Every group runs for 13 weeks with a fixed start date and a maximum of 6 students per group, so popular time slots fill up first. If you see a group that fits your schedule, that's the one to grab. After signing up you pick your exact group, and we confirm your spot by email.
What if I cannot attend every week?
Missing one or two classes isn’t a big problem. We record all the classes so you can rewatch it afterwards. I wouldn’t postpone learning Dutch, and taking ACTION because you cannot be there for one or two classes. You can always ask questions in the group chat or next class when you didn’t understand a certain part of the class.
I need to do the inburgering exam, will this prepare me for the exam?
Yes! The course helps you prepare for the inburgering exams.
If you want extra practice for a specific part of the exam, you can add private classes.
If you want extra practice for a specific part of the exam, you can add private classes.
I’m afraid I can’t keep up with the other students
That's a common worry, and it's exactly why our groups have a maximum of 6 students at the same level. Classes move at a pace everyone can follow. If your level turns out too high or too low, we can switch you to another group. And if group learning isn't your thing after all, we can look at private classes together: learndutchwithyas.com/learn-dutch/private-classes-all-levels
Can I have Private classes too?
Yes! You can join the group program and add private classes for extra speaking practice or exam prep. You can find everything about our private classes here: learndutchwithyas.com/learn-dutch/private-classes-all-levels. Or just mention it after signing up and we'll set it up for you.
Is one live class per week enough?
The live class is the speaking part, not the whole program. During the week you learn the grammar and vocabulary through the self-paced videos (2 to 3 hours in total), and in the weekly live class you put it into practice out loud with your teacher. That combination is why our students start speaking from week one instead of just understanding Dutch.
How will I learn the right pronunciation?
How many students are in a group?
Maximum 6, always at the same level. That way everyone gets to speak in every single class.
What happens after I sign up?
You get an email right away to pick your group and time slot, and you get instant access to the video course and our community. So you can already start learning before your first live class.
When does the next group start?
Groups run in fixed 13-week rounds. You can find the next start dates on our lesson schedule page: learndutchwithyas.com/learn-dutch/lesson-schedules. Seats are capped at 6 per group, so if the next start date works for you, don't wait too long to claim your spot.
I live outside Europe. Are there groups in my timezone?
Yes! We also run groups scheduled for students in the US and other time zones (on the schedule page these show as late evening or night CET). Check the lesson schedule page for the next start date that fits your timezone: learndutchwithyas.com/learn-dutch/lesson-schedules
Can my employer pay for the classes?
Yes, that happens a lot! We can invoice your employer directly. Send us a message on Instagram or an email at yasmine@learndutchwithyas.com and we'll sort it out together.
