About Us
Welcome to Kickstart School! I started the school in 2001 with a simple goal: to combine my passion for teaching with my role as a wife and mother. What began as a small business with just one course and four students has grown into a thriving language school with over 40 teachers and more than 1,500 students each year.
From day one, I’ve been committed to providing top-quality education in a welcoming, supportive environment. I believe language learning should be challenging, creative, and rewarding. That's why we:
- Challenge both ourselves and our students to grow.
- Continuously innovate to offer the best learning experience.
- Keep communication clear and accessible.
- Always do what we say and say what we do.
Thanks to these values, our students consistently rate our courses with an average of 9.3 on KlantenVertellen, and many return year after year.
At Kickstart, we’re here to help you reach your full potential and take your language skills to the next level. Kickstart takes you further!

Our courses are carefully programmed to meet specific learning goals while also exploring interesting cultural aspects related to language learning. Lessons are adapted to suit the needs of each particular group of students, incorporating a variety of learning methods and providing space for spontaneity and flexibility.
Kickstart uses a range of different learning materials, including our own online learning platform, KickstartNet. It enhances students’ opportunities to develop their language skills and in the KickstartNet Forum, students can communicate with their teacher and fellow students. At Kickstart there is a ‘community spirit’ between the students and we organise various activities and provide a study room and coffee area to foster it.
Kickstart has been through enormous growth and most of our students come to us through recommendations from colleagues, friends and family who have taken our classes before. In all things, Kickstart seeks to provide the highest quality of teaching and service with a level of individual care that flows from the personal nature of the company. We like to take you further!
