"It was a wonderful experience to learn a foreign language!"

Anna Nuzhdina, student from Russia

Hello! I had been visiting this language school for 2 weeks. I enjoyed how the lessons had been going. I learned a lot of new information and I have no doubts that my level of German is increased a lot. The teacher Melody was really kind and friendly and she was good at explaining the material. I would really like to visit this language school again! I’m very grateful for your help with organization German courses for me! Thank you a lot!

"Teachers well prepared and lots of fun."

Giulia Menegatti, student from Italy

I liked the German course very much. The teacher was wonderful and well prepared. The lessons were never boring. The location was perfect because it was in the center and I could easily reach it by bus. The class was small. we were four of us and other four on line.

I would have add some social activities to the summer school package.

Unfortunately, the host family did not behave well:

-I ate alone (the lady talked briefly);

- I was not allowed to go into the living room to watch TV;

- I was not allowed to go into the garden or use the swimming pool;

- After dinner I had to return to my room;

- I was not allowed to have shower after 9pm;

- on the last day, I had to leave home before the other guests and I could not have breakfast because the lady could not prepare breakfast at different times. Moreover I had bought some chocolate biscuits which I placed in the fridge to prevent them from melting as it was hot, and I couldn't find them any more.

- One evening the hosts went out and left a bag of salad to share with the other roommates in the fridge place in the basement. We ate on my desk because the host lady, feared we might go into the garden and use the pool in her absence Therefore she locked the kitchen, which was the only access to the garden.

It was a pity, because I wanted to learn the daily habits of a German family as well.

"Well-established school in central Munich offering a variety of German language classes and levels."

Joanne Nannery Gleason, student from USA

I very much liked my German course at Inlingua. This language school is large and well regarded, centrally located in Munich, and offers a variety of classes and levels. I especially appreciated the national diversity of the students in my particular class; incredibly, while there were only about ten of us, my group included students from Angola, Brazil, Romania, Moldova, Mexico, Vietnam, Sri Lanka, Saudi Arabia, and the US.

My only concern was that our particular teacher, while highly professional, was a bit traditional in manner and did allow for fun and creative expression..

"Opportunity to speak"

George Middleton, student from USA

Teacher was excellent

Location was in central Munich. Easy to reach by public transportation

There were no activities, so I was left on my own after class and had to find things to do. I would have preferred some planned activities which would allow me to use German in an informal setting.

Housing was adequate. I would have preferred a home with children so I could hear the language
being spoken by them.

The directions I received to the host house was very confusing for me. If the host had not come to find me I would not have been able to find the location; I might still be roaming around the neighborhood.

I really liked that the classes were in German only. For me, though, there was too much emphasis and time spent on grammar and not enough time on improving my listening and speaking ability. I would have preferred role play or other activities that would forced me to use the language more (and be corrected), rather than relying on a book.

"My teacher Theo was wonderful and made the class most enjoyable."

Kate Hurst, student from Switzerland

I was only at the school for one week, so my assessment is based on only a small experience. But the administration were very easy to deal with and my teacher, Theo was wonderful. I wish I had been placed in his class from day one as he was certainly teaching my current level of German. I think there was some mix up and I ended up in the wrong class. That is a shame because two extra days with Theo would have been far more beneficial. I liked Max who taught on the first afternoon of my conversation class. I had another teacher on the second afternoon of my conversation class and I found her rude and impatient. She didn't seem to enjoy her job at all and didn't seem to want to try hard to enrich the experience for the students. On the third afternoon I skipped her class as I did not wish to join her class again. Nevertheless, I am very happy to have joined your language school and I hope to come again next year.

"The pleasure of traveling and learning a foreign language at the same time"

Francesco Alberto, student from Italy

everything was well organized from the school schedule to the location of my host family. I loved the way my teacher wanted to captivate us during the lessons, in fact I learned a lot of new German idioms and nouns! my host family lived quite close to the city center so it was super easy to reach the school, I never had any kind of problem. The lady was utterly kind and nice and I could eat dinner at home (which is not always possible because of the bad food) and she was always interested in what I had done during the day, in order to speak German with me (something that I loved). The house was clean and orderly!
I have never applied for any activity so I cannot put a judgement on it but I can say that they were rather interesting! Personally I liked every single part of my stay in Munich and I wish I could come back there!

"Great school!"

Sylvia Burgess-Tate, student from Afghanistan

The teachers and staff were excellent. Great location in the city und good facilities.

Very limited social activities were advertised.

First host family was terrible but after reporting them to the school, they changed families immediately and the second family was amazing!

"Money well spent."

Risto Tikka, student from Finland

The number of students present in the classes was never more than 10, which was a definite advantage. I was encouraged already after my first day to change to a higher level class. This turned out to be a wise change. The teacher in both my classes were very good. They did not forget any of the students during classes and they could very quickly and reliably review my skills. I also liked that we were given homework every day. The point with "Fantasiesätze" we had to write for the next day, and the teacher corrected and gave back was explained before. The teacher wanted to be sure that we had understood and that he had taught us correctly the differences between verbs.

The location at Sendlinger Tor was excellent to my needs. I booked my accommodation myself.

"It was a good learning experience."

F.M. Macatangay, student from USA

My teacher was very good. The location was about a thirty-minute walk from where I stayed. I wish though that there were more activities for students to interact with other students even those outside of class.

"Fantastic"

ASHNA MATHAI, student from Singapore

My experience at Inlingua was great. I had two teachers during my 5 months there and they were both fantastic! I learned so much with them! I also took a conversation class and the first class I took was with one teacher and it was not so great. I felt that I did not really learn anything or really get to practice speaking German. I finally moved up to another class in my last month there and it was much better, though the amount of conversation was not increased by much. It was also difficult in both classes because there were students of varying abilities/levels in the class, so it was not easy to include everyone.
