Gee this is such a hard question I don't think there is an answer. You could take a course in Spanish but that wouldn't be much help. You could run down the street as fast as you can, but I don't think that would work. Or, you could go to Google and find resources (books, tapes, etc.) that will instruct you in the Dutch language. Oh, see, there is an answer after all.

Most Dutch humans can appreciate German however the opposite isn't actual. I was once on vacations with Austrian peers in Holland and we took the teach and piece of cake they stated however not possible to appreciate the Dutch bulletins LOL Anyway, German has plenty of complicated grammar and Dutch could be very so much simple so long as you're Dutch. The factor particularly is which language do you honestly want? It is less difficult for a Dutch speaker to gain knowledge of German than for a German speaker to gain knowledge of Dutch.

http://www.learndutch.org has English text, Dutch tekst and spoken words and sentences wich comes with pictures. It´s a one persons hobby website and the spoken words are all the same voice (a man´s voice), that sounds a bit weird to me (being dutch) but the pictures make it clear in what kind of situation things can be said. The written words and sentences show you how it is written and at least the spoken words give you an idea of the prenouncacion.
There is also: http://www.taalthuis.com. Here you click on the click here for lots of Dutch lessons. Explanation, pronounciation, writing..
When you can´t find a native speaker, this can be the beginning.
Good luck.

If you tell us where you are coming from we can help you better.
I know that Dutch is taught in several countries, as I have met people who learned it in their home country.

You can contact the Dutch embassy for your country, the biggest language school in your area or country, or try with a small ad in a local paper or supermarket asking for someone native Dutch living near you.

If you are in university, contact the language department as sometimes they run Dutch courses, (in some universities that is.)

If you are from a country where learning Dutch is needed before you can get your paperwork sorted, ask the office testing if there is a list with teacher or language schools they can hand you.
(This concerns the people who apply for a residence permit in most countries.)

find a dutch student or somebody else dutch around you where you live, it works faster when you hear people talk dutch to you, put out an add at univercitys or something or online to see if someone is dutch where you live.

good luck

Take lessons. Most larger universities offer Dutch classes. You could also pay somebody to teach you.

Veel geluk.
