The Koentact Experience
Our founder, Koen Gijzel, built Koentact from his passion for connecting with people and sharing languages and cultures. What started with teaching Dutch to French expats has grown into a unique method where lessons are brought to life outside the classroom. Whether it’s practicing Dutch at the local market, during cooking classes, or at ‘language dating events,’ Koen’s vision is all about making language learning practical, social, and enjoyable.
At Koentact, we honor the diversity of our students and the stories they bring with them. By fostering connections between locals and internationals, we create an environment where everyone learns from one another. Our goal is simple: to help you feel at home in the Netherlands, both personally and professionally, by learning the language in a fun and interactive way.

For many students, learning Dutch with Koentact is more than a class—it becomes a hobby. One student even said, “You guys make learning Dutch a hobby!” Whether you’re discovering hidden gems in Amsterdam, making new international friends, or sharing cultural experiences, our approach makes learning the language an adventure. As another student put it: “I met so many nice new people; it was like reliving my Erasmus programme.”
At Koentact, we don’t just teach Dutch—we create lasting memories and connections. Join us, and experience Dutch language learning in a way that changes how you think and feel about the Netherlands!
