Dear visitor,
Dear student,

Welcome to the website of the Goesting in Taal project! This project aims to bridge the language gap between Dutch language learners and Flemish native speakers by helping students to get to know the everyday spoken Flemish language, the so-called "tussentaal" and the many Flemish accents and dialects.

What do we offer?
  • A platform with background information on spoken Flemish, free materials such as exercises, videos, tips and tricks and much more.
  • Survival guides and books to help you understand Flemish people better and to learn to talk like a native speaker.
  • A blog with regular posts on typically Flemish expressions and words.
  • Fun workshops about spoken Flemish for language schools, organisations and companies.
Beste NT2- en NVT-docent,
Beste taaltrainer,

Welkom op de website van Goesting in Taal, een project dat als doel heeft de taalbarrière tussen Vlamingen en anderstaligen te doorbreken. Dit willen we doen door anderstaligen toegang te geven tot leerinstrumenten om de taaldiversiteit in Vlaanderen te leren kennen.

Wat bieden wij aan?
  • Een platform met achtergrondinformatie, gratis materiaal, oefeningen, lestips, interessante links en nog veel meer.
  • Survival guides en handboeken om tussentaal te leren begrijpen en gebruiken.
  • Plezante workshops Vlaamse tussentaal als extracurriculaire of teambuildingactiviteit voor taalscholen, organisaties en bedrijven.
  • Workshops over lesgeven over en in tussentaal voor NT2- en NVT-docenten.
  • Een blog met regelmatige posts over typisch Vlaamse woorden en uitdrukkingen.
