Road to B1 in Dutch

[Ug_Caveman]

Just got my ass royally handed to me by a passive-voice (audio only) exercise. Very fast spoken and a lot of thinking on the spot with no transcription.

I've never been great at the passive-voice, so it is something I'll need to work on moving forwards...

Up to page 120, 60 more to go.

Some of the stuff I've done is fine, other bits I struggle with a lot. I'm not entirely sure what level Colloquial 2 is pitched at specifically (it seems harder than Hugo Advanced) - am really hoping that I've done enough to cross that B1 barrier...

Had to slow down a bit, been unwell for a few days, but still managed to get through 20 pages this week.

40 more to go...

Listened to a 20 minute video pitched at a B1/B2 learner made by Dutch with Kim last night, was semi-asleep, but still managed to understand about 80-90% of everything that was said.

Finished Colloquial Dutch 2 last night.

Honestly, what a brilliant course. I definitely haven't taken everything in it into my brain, but there's more than enough there to bolster my abilities.

Will spend the next month reading, listening and revising vocab/grammar rules in preparation for CNaVT B1.

Plan after that is to begin work on B2 immediately (have acquired materials already.)
