LABS is a very small school in the center of Antwerp. We are a group of students working on their skills in Dutch, and your teacher is coaching you through your personal program.
There is a student lounge and free internet access for all students.
Students can borrow iPads and (audio)books from the library.
The school organises activities such as museum trips, sports or culinary activities, some of these activities are free.
After finishing their course, students have access to our online exercises for 6 more months.
Learn Dutch & live in your private teacher's home around Antwerp with Home Language International!
Home Language International (HLI) is a family-run business offering language courses in more than 20 languages in over 30 countries worldwide, including Dutch lessons at an experienced private teacher's home in Belgium. More than 5,000 students take advantage of our services every year. Ian Josephs, Danielle Josephs, their 5 adult children and an expert team of dedicated staff all put in very long hours for HLI.
You stay in an experienced teacher's family home, have one-to-one Dutch lessons and then continue to use the language during the rest of your stay in Antwerp. Because you are the only student, you are guaranteed individual attention. The lessons are completely designed for you, so the teacher will focus exactly on what you need. Mealtime conversation, television and social contacts are all in Dutch.
All of our teachers in Belgium have a university degree (or equivalent) and/or a recognised teaching certificate. All teachers have been visited by one of our local organisers. Their qualifications have been checked and their homes throughly inspected. During your stay in Antwerp, a local organiser will monitor your progress and make sure your experience is both happy and successful.
Home Language International (HLI) is accredited by the Accreditation Body for Language Services (ABLS), Association of Language Travel Organisations (ALTO), and UNOSEL.
