Naast rijles krijg je bij ons ook persoonlijk begeleide theorielessen en mocht je faalangst hebben, dan besteden we ook daar extra aandacht aan. Als 1 van de weinige rijscholen in provincie Noord Holland mag Autorijschool Ayana zich met recht de rijschool Amsterdam noemen, omdat verkeerstaken en vaardigheden een belangrijke aspect zijn binnen onze theorieopleidingen. Dit vergroot het rij inzicht aanzienlijk waardoor veel cursisten minder rijlessen nodig hebben om met succes het rijexamen af te leggen. Wij werken volgens de boekje van cbr niet minder maar wel veel. We beginnen altijd op een rustige omgeving en vertellen we eerst een stukje over binnen de auto waarvoor de instrumenten voor dienen. Vervolgens krijg je uitleg over de bediening van de auto en dan begin je met makkelijke oefeningen. Tijdens je rijlessen ben je feitelijke bestuurder en je rijinstructeur is dan de juridische bestuurder dat wil zeggen dat je nooit alleen voor staat. De opbouw van je rijopleiding begint altijd bij makkelijke stappen en met je voldoende vorderingen wordt het elke keer ietsje meer er word altijd rekening gehouden met je niveau. Wij vertellen onze lessen altijd zoals het is beschreven in het boekje van de rij procedure B. Wij doen er echt alles aan om van jouw een veilig zelfstandige bestuurder te maken.

After a few months of studying on my own, I took a one-day driving theory crash course at this…read moreschool. Actually I ended up having to cancel at the last minute because I had pneumonia, and whereas the CBR will give you a refund if you cancel for illness reasons, this place wouldn't. I had to pay most of their class fee, again, for a rescheduled class, even though they claim a part of their fee is to pay the CBR exam fee, so you end up paying the CBR exam fee twice through them. This really pissed me off and was poor customer service. When I attended the rescheduled class, the woman teaching was just reading off of powerpoint slides, and was getting all sorts of information wrong. She was very unprofessional. When students would ask her about wrong or confusing information she had a very low threshold for answering questions and would get annoyed pretty quickly. Even when a slide said that clearance around a car is X number of meters for an attached load on the car, she claimed the slide was wrong. Even if other people were pointing out she was wrong according to their theory books, she still insisted they and the slide were wrong. At the end of the class they had this snazzy animated set of right-of-way questions that she was supposed to have people answer, and that would show them an animated illustration of how things would play out based on if they chose correctly who had the right-of-way in an intersection. So for example if you got the right-of-way order wrong as to who could go first, maybe a pedestrian gets run over, or two cars crash, or a bike gets bumped by a tram. As far as I can tell, this driving school spent a lot of money paying someone to animate all these different driving scenarios, and the teacher wouldn't let the animated scenarios play out. Even after repeated complaints and requests by the students to see the animated sequences so we could picture the right-of-way rules better, she would just skip the animations and move on to the next question, she said in order to save time. This ended up costing a lot more time, because people were asking a lot more questions without the animated visual aide. But in the end I did pass my theory exam on the first try, so there is that. I don't know if that's because of all my previous self-study efforts, or if it was due to this class, but I passed. It's probably a combination of both of these things. I studied a lot and took lots of online practice tests, and while this class was pretty bad, it was not so terrible that I didn't get anything out of it. Just having someone cram the important stuff into your head a day or two before the exam helped a lot.

Little Universe School is a great example of how education can fulfill and stimulate the relentless and natural hunger for learning and development in kids. Besides the curriculum learning, there is great attention to social and communication skills; I regularly see how my kids come home and use what they have learned at school; sharing, making proposals and solving conflicts; they seem to be more centered when they come home from school than before. And I have not yet talked about all structural advantages (for working parents): warm school lunch, pre- and after school in one building, swimming lessons and the flexible vacation scheme. I regularly feel that the teachers at Little Universe School have the energy of people who are creating something new: a school that prepares happy and conscious kids fit for the 21st century...

I've been taking singing lessons with Claudia for a couple of months now and I have to say it's…read moreeven better than I thought it would be! First, let me say that I had zero experience with singing, as in, I had literally never sang before (except around camp fires when I was a teenager!), so I am a total beginner. Well, Claudia could totally deal with that! I found her online as I was searching for private singing lessons in Amsterdam. I liked the fact that not only is she a professional singer, she's also a PhD student in musicology and her research focuses on teaching - so I could trust her teaching skills! We had a first meeting to discuss what she had to offer, her teaching methods, the goals that I had, and just get to know each other. And then: that's it baby, now you sing! :s :s As a total beginner, I have everything to learn. We started with theory - but even theory was always applied and we did lots of exercices to understand how everything works in your body when you sing. I really, really love the fact that she focuses so concretely on what is happening within your throat, mouth and lungs, rather than use some weird metaphors!! She really knows what's going on, she has an incredible ear and can always tell you what you're doing (consciously or not!) and then guide you very specifically to improve your technique. She's also so dynamic and enthusiast, always encouraging and pushing you to go beyond what you think you can do! Then I picked a few songs that I would like to sing, and she also continuously proposes new songs, so it's always varied and you don't get bored with singing the same thing over and over. I also totally love that we do all kind of styles. It's Claudia's conviction that everyone can learn how to sing every style and that we should be able to choose which style we'd like to sing, once we understand the differences and the different techniques. It's really fascinating to find out what you can do with your voice!

I found out about this School via a Dutch expat web site. The School had an event listed offering a…read morefree trial Dutch language class and one of the lucky attendees would win a free 8 week class as well. The school was located just under 15 minutes walking distance from my apartment, so decided to register and come check it out. Once you are at the building, go thru the lobby area to a common room towards the back, sign in and grab some coffee or tea as well as nibble on the cookies they've set out and basically mingle with the other folks who have come along for the free trial class as well. Btw, the location of the introductory class is actually a local college and they are pretty prompt because once 6:45pm rolled around, we got divided into groups of 12 and went off with individual teachers to a classroom located on the 3rd floor of the school building. Our teacher was the lovely and enthusiastic Veerle, and I really enjoyed her teaching style as well as the lesson and the multiple opportunities to practice my Dutch language skills with the other folks in my free trial class. Veerle had an easy-breezy style that made it fun and inspired me enough that the next morning I downloaded Duolingo, an app I had been meaning to a download for a while but hadn't done so yet. After about an hour and 15 minutes of our lesson, we made our way down back to the lobby area and the winner of the free class was announced (wasn't me!! :-) and it was all really very well planned and informative. The location of their actual classes is also just down the street, but they use the school building for these events as it's got more space. I need to look at their brochure and website to see if the timing of the language classes will work for me, (and if I do enroll, will come back and update my Yelp review) however can absolutely recommend coming for the free trial class they offer.

My instructor, Christiaan, was highly qualified; he had a Master's degree. He used a variety of techniques to learn Dutch--we discussed topics, we had to present one side of a debate, and we had to draw/describe our house floor plan, among other methods. It was stimulating and the instructor was very enthusiastic. They also provide field trip opportunities and social gatherings to practice your Dutch. The program/experience was great and really helped me achieve my goal.

We missed the 8 pm performance completely because of general lateness, but arrived just in time to purchase a few beers in the cafe and grab seats for the main show at 9 pm. The format of this improv performance involved five "art directors" who each introduced a movie concept for the audience to vote on and alter with random suggestions about location and objects. The actors performed scenes from each movie concept, and the audience continually whittled down the five concepts by voting for their favorites, until there was just one final movie left that won the show. The price was right (€10 for both the 8 and 9 pm shows), the actors were talented and genuine, the crowd was relaxed, and the cafe next door served as a great place to grab a drink between scenes and after the show. I would highly recommend this event to others and will definitely try to see their shows again. Overall, this is a very good alternative to Boom Chicago. ;) And in a very different part of town, which is nice. Bravo easylaughts! PS - they can't take a PIN card, so bring cash!!
