What makes Flowently so special? We asked one of our language professionals, Niala Maharaj, writer, journalist and teacher, who had to learn Dutch herself, to delve into this and share her experience.

Niala, what was your experience like learning Dutch before you discovered Flowently?
Now
Honestly, it was rough. I really struggled with sentence structure — that weird word-flipping thing Dutch does once a sentence gets longer. It felt totally unpredictable and overwhelming.
Now
That sounds frustrating! How did Flowently help with that?
Now
They simplify it in such a clever way. They teach you to rely on these five little words — your “five friends” — to avoid or to apply all the flipping madness. It’s such a relief.
Now
Interesting! And what’s their overall teaching style like?
Now
Super practical. You learn phrases you can use, like “mag ik erlangs?” or funny phrases like “tsjonge jonge.” Even with a small vocabulary, you can sound like a local. It’s all about patterns and smart shortcuts.
Now
Have you used any of their teaching materials?
Now
Yes! Their booklet Learn Dutch on the Go is amazing — packed with tips, conversation formats, even simplified explanation of Dutch grammar. And Taaltempo really helped me speed up my understanding and reaction time in conversations.
Now
Reaction time?
Now
Yeah, like that awkward pause between someone asking you something and you figuring out how to respond. With practice drills, it gets so much easier to answer naturally and correctly.
Now
Sounds like Flowently made a big impact.
Now
Absolutely. It turned something that used to feel like climbing a mountain into something fun and doable.
