Learning to drive in a new country is challenging enough. Doing it in a language you're still getting used to makes it even harder. With us, every explanation, every piece of feedback and every exam tip is in English, so you can fully focus on the road.
Priority to the right, cyclists everywhere, shark’s teeth and busy roundabouts. We explain how Dutch traffic works, and why.
You practise on the routes CBR examiners often use, so exam day holds no surprises.
You drive a Tesla Model 3 with automatic transmission. No clutch, no gears, just more attention for the traffic around you.
The Netherlands is home to a large international community. Many expats, knowledge workers and international students find out they need a Dutch driving licence, for example when their foreign licence cannot be exchanged. Rijschool Sezen helps you get there with lessons fully in English, from your very first lesson to your practical exam.
Every lesson lasts 90 minutes, so there is time to learn something new and practise it straight away. We drive the routes examiners often choose, including ring roads and busy city centres. You know upfront what a package costs, and the practical exam is included. Complete beginner? We start in a quiet neighbourhood. Already driving back home? Then we focus on Dutch traffic rules and the parts that still need work.
Getting behind the wheel in a new country can feel overwhelming. That's why we take the time to explain everything clearly, in English. Already have driving experience abroad? We'll look at where you stand and what you need to pass in the Netherlands. You can always ask questions, and you learn to drive in a way that suits you.
Fill in the form. We'll get in touch and schedule a time together.
After your first lesson you'll know roughly how many lessons you need and which package fits.
After every lesson you hear what went well, so you can see your progress grow.
Only when your instructor says you are ready do we book your CBR exam.
At Rijschool Sezen, driving lessons are all about calm and clear direction. You learn at your own pace, in English, and always know where you stand after each lesson. We also tell you honestly when you are ready for the exam.
You always drive with the same person, who knows your strengths and what still needs attention.
We only book your exam when you are truly ready, so you go to the CBR with confidence.
You practise on the roads where you will take your exam. Ring roads, roundabouts and busy junctions all come along.
A question about your schedule? You get a quick answer, in English, without queues or a call centre.

Proud students with their licence in hand, every week. You’re next.
Already have driving experience, for example from your home country, and just want to polish up for the exam? Then simply pay per lesson, no package needed.
Learning to drive feels exciting, especially in a new country. At Rijschool Sezen you get an instructor who takes the time, explains everything in English and never rushes you. And because you drive an automatic, there is no shifting or clutch control to worry about. You look around more and learn to read Dutch traffic faster.
Every lesson lasts 90 minutes. We build up step by step, from quiet residential streets to roundabouts, busy junctions and ring roads. Afterwards we discuss what is going well and what still needs attention, so you always know where you stand. You plan your lessons around work or study, so learning to drive fits into your week. That way you go to the CBR well prepared and confident.

We pick you up wherever suits you: at home, at work or on campus. You practise in your own neighbourhood and on the routes examiners often use.
Your lesson starts and ends at the place you choose, so no travel time.
We drive the routes you will encounter during your practical exam.
Merging and higher speeds come once the basics are solid.
Don’t see your town? Let us know. In many cases we can pick you up there too.
Yes. At Rijschool Sezen all lessons can be given fully in English, including every explanation, the feedback after each lesson and your exam preparation. Many of our students are expats, international professionals and students living in the Netherlands.
We also explain the Dutch traffic rules that are often new for internationals, such as priority to the right, cyclists and bike lanes, shark’s teeth and the many roundabouts. That way you understand not only what to do, but also why.
A single 90-minute driving lesson at Rijschool Sezen costs €95. A 60-minute lesson costs €65. A lesson package is better value. The Starter package costs €865 and includes five 90-minute lessons, one 60-minute lesson and the practical exam. Larger packages give up to 5% discount. The Complete package, for example, costs €2449 instead of €2580.
All prices are final prices, so there is no registration fee and there are no hidden costs. Not sure which package fits you? After your first lesson you will get honest advice based on your level.
That depends on the country where your licence was issued and whether it can be exchanged for a Dutch one. If you need to take the Dutch practical exam, a few lessons help you get used to Dutch traffic rules and the exam routes in your region.
During your free trial lesson we look at your driving and advise you honestly on how many lessons you need. Experienced drivers can also simply book single lessons instead of a package.
That differs per student. It depends on your experience, how quickly you pick things up and how often you take lessons. Because you learn in an automatic, you do not have to master clutch control and changing gears, which often saves time in the first weeks.
After your free trial lesson you will get an honest estimate and advice on which package suits you.
You take your practical exam at the CBR exam centre in your region. The examiner chooses a route through the city and the surrounding area, such as the Ringbaan, busy junctions in the centre, residential areas with narrow streets and a stretch of rural road. During your lessons we practise exactly these kinds of places, so the surroundings feel familiar on exam day.
Rijschool Sezen gives driving lessons throughout Tilburg, including the centre, Tilburg Noord, West, Oost, Zuid and the Reeshof. We also drive in Oisterwijk, Waalwijk, Berkel-Enschot, Rijen, Dongen and Udenhout. We pick you up at home, at work or on campus. Live just outside these areas? Just ask, in many cases we can pick you up there too.
Yes. Every lesson package at Rijschool Sezen includes the practical exam. You do not pay separate exam fees on top of the price shown on this page. If you prefer to pay per lesson, the practical exam costs €330.
No. With an automatic licence you are only allowed to drive cars with an automatic gearbox in the Netherlands. If you want to drive a manual car later, you need to take a separate practical exam. You do not have to redo your theory exam.
For most students this is not a problem. More and more new cars are sold as automatics, electric cars have no clutch at all and many lease and shared cars are automatic too. Still in doubt? Feel free to discuss it during your first lesson.
