Learn Dutch through songs (and sing along)

Details

Learn Dutch by exploring the most famous, beautiful, fun, emotional, crazy, and typical Dutch songs. The goal is to learn Dutch in a fun way, guided by a Dutch teacher. Your homework is to try to understand the lyrics.
This means:
Listen with subtitles or read the lyrics on paper
Look up unfamiliar words
Sing along to practice pronunciation

The first lesson we learn "Kleine jongen" of Andre Hazes, the most famous singer we had. Here is the song with lyrics: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RNzXviI6kHE&list=RDRNzXviI6kHE&start_radio=1
full lyrics: https://www.songteksten.nl/songteksten/3291/andre-hazes/kleine-jongen.htm
(refr. means refrain)

When you're a total beginner, start with basic words like ik, je/jij, niet, bent/is/zijn, de/het, maar. The keywords of the song like klein, jongen, vader, leef/leven are important to understand what the song is about.
During the lesson, we will go through the song together, I will ask you some questions and you can ask questions. Your level of Dutch should definitely not be higher than B1.

This is an online event. We use zoom.
