We are a Dutch speaking club based in Amsterdam. We welcome guests and members who would like to practice their Dutch to join us! You can start at any level. Teaching materials are in English, as we use the material from Toastmasters International. If you would be interested in becoming a member, we encourage you to read more on our Dutch page.
Who was Brugman?
“Talking like Brugman” or “Praten als Brugman” is a Dutch phrase, meaning that you are a great speaker. Johannes Brugman was a 15th-century Franciscan friar, who became a renowned preacher in the Netherlands. The phrase was coined on his behalf. For us, it means that with the Amsterdamse Brugman Club you can practice the ABC of speaking in Dutch – and if you like, the XYZ as well!
