Why learn German?

While Dutch and Germans often communicate in English, it’s a bit of a missed opportunity, after all, with a little effort, they can understand each other perfectly. Why rely on English then? While comprehension may come easy, speaking is a different matter. Learning German is a great way to bridge that gap and dive deeper into understanding our neighboring country. Plus, it’s a fun and engaging way to enrich both your personal and professional life. And good to know: Germany is the largest trading partner of the Netherlands.
