Language skills in the workplace.

Drillster is ideal for non-Dutch-speaking colleagues and technical or manual workers who may have limited time, motivation, or other learning challenges, but still need a basic knowledge of Dutch on the shop floor.

  • Specific vocabulary: understanding (safety) instructions, quality checks, technical terminology, and more.
  • General knowledge: to support better integration, communication and teamwork.

Results guaranteed.

Drillster is a smart learning solution that combines adaptive learning with microlearning, immediate feedback and question-based learning.

The focus on 'drilling' (= smart repetition) prevents forgetting and makes knowledge stick better.

Drillster has been great for practicing listening skills.

Drillster has been very helpful for practicing listening skills. I like that the exercises are clearly spoken in proper Dutch, which makes it easier for me to understand compared to the language I hear at work. The ability to repeat the listening exercises as many times as I want is also a big advantage, as it gives me the confidence that I’ve understood everything correctly.
