Technische Universiteit Delft (TU DELFT)

I have been learning English since primary school so I am very competent on English. Both in my home and host country the education language is English and everybody has enough English to communicate. Therefore, I had no problems in both countries. Moreover, I like to learn new languages so I always try to speak the language of the country I am in.

Dutch people, being bilingual are friendly to foreigners, and its fun trying to figure out what some Dutch people are saying as some words sound familiar and you can more or less make out a conversation even if they speak to you in Dutch (you reply in English)

If you already speak another Germanic language, like German or any Scandinavian language, TU Delft offers excellent summer courses. Without them it would be impossible to follow most of the lectures given at "my" institution

in the netherlands almost all the people (young and old people)can speak a really good english, so it's really easy to live there, and because they all speak english is really hard to learn and practis their language.

I started a dutch course which I could not complete because of lack of time. I learned some sentences. I had no problems with the language with instruction.

In the Netherlands I was able to improve my English, all the lessons were taught in that language and I met lots of people which knew very well how to speak it. I think now I'm able to follow any conversation in English. Moreover, I learnt some Dutch during the year. During this year in Barcelona, I'm still learning Dutch and, even if it's still difficult to have conversations, I can understand quite a lot out while reading or listening.
