We were three Asian who went to this school to inquire about the course that one of my friend was…read moreinterested into but the man who spoke to us was somehow treated us as idiot-( he spoke to us very slowly like we are really so stupid) I felt that his gesture and the way he spoke to us was really insulting. My story is not finish yet; while waiting for a friend who is doing an evaluation exam, I asked him if the exam will still take long and he went on saying " you know some of the students answers fast and some are STUPID that they answer very slow....." for the 2nd time I was shocked to hear that kind of rude comment about the student... Another insult I told myself. I think that as a school representative, they should be careful on how to talk things to their CLIENT /STUDENT who are there to learn; anyway these are the people who gives them job, people from whom they're getting their salary ..... To top it all.... I do not recommend this school.

A friend recommended this language school to me as something more intensive than the courses I was…read moretaking last year at St. Annahof Sprachschule, but a more affordable option than something like Bellingua. We also get a discount from being an employee at Zurich Insurance Company, yay! I sat in a trial class, it was a good experience for me, so I signed up for German classes Tuesdays and Thursdays from 6:30 - 9:00 pm. Unfortunately, after about 4 years in Switzerland, I'm STILL at German A1 level, but this time, it seemed good as a refresher on the basics. The teacher Anne Madeleine tries to explain everything in German instead of resorting to English. Sometimes it's still a bit difficult to figure out what she's trying to say, so I still have to resort to the Google Translate app on my phone. Class sizes range from 3 people up to 7, depending on who shows up. Homework is minimal or nonexistent, but what I like is the practice during the class. We take turns answering questions and speaking in German, so I get to say something in every class (unlike at my prior school). Unfortunately, due to my work schedule, I had to start missing some classes, and now I'm starting to get a bit lost in class again. I finally decided that German is not for me and gave up. But while it lasted, the course was pretty good. The only negative is that it's just really time-consuming and exhausting to sit there after a long day at work. Plus I get hungry because it's during dinner time. I tried to eat something at 5:30 at work, but then I was hungry again at 9:30 pm and had to eat a second dinner after class. This class is making me fat! :O

I take intensive classes at this location each day. It`s…read morequite expensive, but the learning`s fast-paced. Your experience depends on your class and your teacher, so I hope yours is professional, sans slackers and creatures! My class has 11, so we all get speaking time. But it`s quite disruptive when one`s outta line. It`s built right beside the train and bus station, thus, it`s easy to find via public transportation. So yes, for 990 Franks, it`s an investment of sorts, but for better Deutsch, this one I`d report!

I'm keen on taking German courses, and have been recommended to check out the Migros language…read moreschool. The greatest thing about Migros is that it's bucket-loads cheaper than private schools, and, this, in large part, is due to the fact that the Migros parent company subsidizes costs at its school. If a course at Migros Language School were to cost around 700 CHF, then a course through a private school could cost somewhere around 1500 CHF, or so I've been told. I recently met with an adviser in order to gauge my language level. We chatted, I took a short written test, and from there we looked at the course catalog together. All of this effort was gratis, and that was fab. Mind you, she came up with the same course that I did, but also suggested that I enroll in a grammar course. One may enroll in the grammar course only after having passed a slightly more rigorous test that one must pay 30 CHF for the pleasure of taking. I made an appt. to take the test the next afternoon, and, upon completion, was told that a teacher would contact me via phone to check my level of spoken German. I hadn't been told that there would be a spoken component to the written test. Had I known that, then I would have sorted out getting a phone before popping into Migros, guns blaring. In any case, I left an email address which may yield a phone no. from the instructor. 'Fingers crossed' we'll get to chatting sooner rather than later. It's been almost one week since the test-taking fun, so I'll either wait a tad longer in the hopes of hearing from her, or decide to enroll in the course that I initially chose for myself. All around, the interface with the school has been nothing but polite and friendly. I can well imagine that folk having difficulty with the language would be put well at ease by the service they receive at Migros reception. This particular Migros Klubschule is in Oerlikon, just outside of Zuerich City proper and easily reached via tram. From central Zuerich, trams 10 and 11 will take you to Oerlikon Hauptbahnhof, directly in the vicinity of the school. If you're keen on taking the 'fancy train', then hop on at the Zuerich main train station and get off at Oerlikon main station. **as of 2/8, I received an email from the instructor who corrected my test stating that I am eligible to take Grammatikkurs 5. -never having heard nor read about this particular class, I was a bit confused. I wasn't sure if this course corresponded to the C2 course I was aiming to take, or not. I called the helpful gals at Migros reception for some clarification. Turns out that Grammatikkurs 5 is equal to the C1 class (as competency level in German here is marked by the letters A, B, and C, then divided into two sections per letter). Ex.: A1-A2, B1-B2...etc. I did the maths, and C1=5. Woot. Let's hope that the actual class I'm slated to take in Sept. is less confusing. :)
