“I really enjoy using Optilingo – the focus on listening and repeating is different to other apps which focus on reading and typing. I particularly like the use of phrases as opposed to single words – you get introduced to tenses and plurals in useful sentences without having to drill conjugations and endings outside of context.”

Why learning Dutch with OptiLingo is different
For every person who tries to learn Dutch, there’s one who gives up. The most common reason is that people feel that despite all their efforts, they don’t make progress. It turns the very concept of learning a language into something that feels impossible to accomplish.
The reason most people fail at learning Dutch isn’t that they can’t or that they’re bad at it. It’s because most Dutch learning programs use inefficient methods. And if you’ve ever had to memorize verb conjugations or stand up and speak to a class of strangers, you get it. OptiLingo is different.
Instead of dropping you off in the deep end and seeing if you can swim, we guide you through the most common words and phrases. This means you can start speaking confidently from your first lesson. We also know that for you to truly learn a language, your lessons need to be stress-free and entertaining.
Most importantly, you need to learn Dutch in a way that builds on your natural ability to learn a language. And that’s exactly why it works.

“I tried (and failed) to learn languages in high school. In the classroom there was very little opportunity to speak practice. Same thing with the commercial programs that only teach you what to say as a tourist. But I wanted to learn to communicate in everyday situations. I really like how OptiLingo focuses on everyday phrases. I also like how the phrases can be mixed and matched to say even more useful things. Overall, I’m very happy with my results so far.”

How OptiLingo helps you learn Dutch easier
Optilingo is a great way to learn Dutch without having to stress out about endless tests, memorization, and drilling. Instead, we focus on getting you speaking from your first lesson.
But there’s more to it than that.
What Is Guided Immersion?
OptiLingo is built on two methodologies: Guided Immersion and Spaced Repetition Systems. This foundation makes learning a new language fast, practical, and fun.
Guided Immersion uses a combination of high-frequency phrases, comprehensible input, and spaced repetition systems to help you reach fluency naturally.
During lessons, you’ll also learn how and why you use a certain word or phrase. All without memorizing countless grammatical rules and figure out when to apply them.
Why Guided Immersion Works:
Practice with flexibility
With OptiLingo, our lessons are short, only 20 minutes a day, 5 days a week. Take weekends off. Go out with friends. Enjoy a break. Relax.
There’s no pressure to stop everything and study. And if you get behind, you can quickly catch up without stressing out.
Relax and enjoy fluency
OptiLingo lets you make mistakes. Our intuitive platform doesn’t stop you every time you make a small slip-up because we understand that making mistakes is part of your journey.
Instead, we provide a relaxed environment that naturally builds the confidence you need to start speaking in a new language.
“The lessons were easy to learn and interesting. They were never boring and I did not feel overwhelmed. It’s a solid language learning app. I’m very happy and very impressed.”

Why you should learn Dutch
There are so many reasons to learn Dutch. If you learn Dutch, you talk to more people, explore new areas at home, and gain a deeper experience when traveling abroad. It also looks great on your CV and it can open the door to higher paying jobs.
Plus, discovering the Netherlands or Belgium while talking to the locals will help you navigate better when you’re lost, receive better customer service, and even find hidden sights that no normal tourist experiences.
How many people speak Dutch?
There are 28 million Dutch speakers worldwide. It’s most common in the Netherlands, where 16 million speak it.
Where Is Dutch an official language?
Though most common in the Netherlands, Dutch is also very common in Belgium, France, Suriname, Aruba, Curacao, and Sint Maarten.
Is Dutch hard to learn?
Not at all. For native English speakers, mastering the Dutch language is easy. It’s actually one of the easiest foreign languages to learn.
But, you can actually make learning Dutch easier and faster with the right learning method.
Language learning should never be boring. It should always be exciting and engaging. But, it should also help you progress steadily. No matter how fun a language learning game is, it’s not effective if you can’t comfortably speak the language to locals.
