Dutch at Work

A colleague gives you a task, asks for an update or wants your view. Dutch at Work helps you prepare a useful reply. Practise four common work exchanges with familiar colleagues, then replace the examples with details from your own work.

What you will practise

- Ask for help and arrange a time when your colleague is available.

- Check what a task means, when it is due and what takes priority.

- Explain what is finished, what you are doing and what you are waiting for.

- Suggest an idea, give a reason and respond to another point of view.

Inside the ebook

- 20 useful phrases and sentence patterns with English meanings.

- 5 model exchanges and 2 short reading tasks.

- A2 foundations with clearly marked B1 extensions.

- Speaking exercises, answers and a final four-exchange challenge.

Who it is for

For A2-B1 learners who can already make simple sentences about work. The examples use informal je with familiar colleagues. Begin with the A2 practice and use the B1 extensions when you are ready to give a longer contribution.
