Our part-time Teacher Education in German is a four-year programme in an international setting which is taught in the English language. The programme is designed for you to combine with your current career, whether that is already within education or in a completely different field. From the first year on, you will have an internship at a Dutch school where you will be functioning as a teacher, depending on your experience. As these internships will be in a Dutch speaking environment, you will be expected to have a Dutch level CEFR A2 towards the end of your second year. We offer Dutch classes during your first year as well as a Dutch minor in years 2 and 3.
