Thoroughly enjoy my teacher, but after the first day of class I was confident I was placed in a…read moreclass lower than my level. I have been studying with a private tutor for quite some time to prepare for this trip from the USA to Germany, and I came here with the intention to learn and *improve* the best I could, rather than simply review concepts that I already understand well... I get that already from my tutor. I tried to talk directly with the institute about it, and the guy helping me shared the workbooks for the next level so I could take a peek, and it was definitely a better fit for me, as I was familiar with many grammar topics in those books as well. The person was at first very helpful and went to ask the teacher that was in the next-level class about having me switch, and I overheard her quickly saying that they were too full and over capacity. So, unfortunately, I now remain in a class that I understand literally everything on already, which feels like a waste of money.. especially considering these courses aren't cheap, let alone flights to and from the USA. I am still trying to make the best of it, so I am utilizing the books that are in the level higher in the library outside of class time, but it just seems very disorganized (and.. shady?) that they can't accommodate a student (me), after realizing that the course I am in is not correct. I'm PAYING for this... as a customer... surely I should be able to have a decision in which course is most appropriate for me. This can't be the first time something like this has happened, and because of this, I would not recommend this institute for another person *if* they are going out of their way to travel from far to participate in it. If you live locally, perhaps it is worth it, because you could simply request to be moved to another time period when there is an opening in the more appropriate course. For me, this was a very specific 2 weeks that I carved out of my life to make this happen.

I don't want this turning into a rag-fest, so I'll try to keep things concise…read more Note: Ss=students Cons: Slow internet service and an older version of Windows no longer supported by Microsoft. Apropos internet: two separate connections, one for the Ss (WiFi) and one for the computer lab would be best. Ss' initial assessment with respect to gauging class level is faulty thus leading to, for ex., a C1er being placed in a B1.2 class and B1.1er being placed in a A1 class--the whole thing smacked of filling class rosters first, then sorting out which Ss needed to be moved to other classes second. In some cases this meant Ss losing 2 or 3 days of instruction due to incorrect initial placement. The library staff was friendly and helpful, but of different minds when approaching Ss' behavior which caused continual, confusing situations. Depending upon who was manning the help desk, one could expect to be told varying things regarding use of the copy machine. Among them were: one is allowed to make five copies only; one is allowed to make copies, but 'not fifty pages' worth'. This meant that some Ss copied massive amounts of text book data and some Ss were rather limited in their copying adventures, much to their chagrin. Maybe simply posting a note at the copy machine regarding appropriate usage would make things a bit clearer? The first day of instruction saw the woman who runs concessions, sans 'inside voice', railing against whomever may have taken her second dish trolley. Nothing says, 'Welcome!' like a foul-tempered employee. Pro-tip: just because we're language learners does not mean that we can't understand what you're going on about. BTW: she was a sour-puss the entire month I attended. The market directly next door, Alnatura, offers healthy fare served with a non-crap attitude, so I took to going there for lunch. Some folk whom I spoke with were displeased with their instruction. Specifically, their instructor seemed to focus an inordinate amount of time on Iran as subject matter. Nothing against Iran, they'd said, but they'd come to Germany, and, specifically, the Goethe Institut to learn about Germany and refine their language skills. Pros: An array of excursions offered around town and beyond. School centrally located. Knowledgeable teaching staff. Text books used are contemporary and engaging. Some folk whom I spoke with were very pleased with their instruction. My personal opinion re: classroom experience would be gladly shared through a PM, so shoot me a mail, if you're inclined on hearing it.

The owners treat their staff as part of the family, hence he teachers feel valued and treat their students likewise. The methodology encourages students to speak from day one . At Lingua Nova, you will not find a teacher lecturing in front of a class, with the students sitting in tidy rows, looking at the back of heads. Instead, everyone is seated around a table, which enables eye-contact with the whole group, thereby facilitating the flow of spontaneous communication. If you are looking for a school where you can learn any language in a natural, relaxed way, and have to do so as quickly as possible, then Lingua Nova is the place for you.

I highly recommend Evolanguage!
