Scheisse The online course is very boring. It’s basically listen, speak, repeat. Not much imaginative learning techniques used in this course. The online tutorial sessions are crap. No one bothers to explain anything. Save your money don’t use this course.

Truly a bad experience with Berlitz… Truly a bad experience with Berlitz Flex. Video courses are repetitive and terminally slow, with not enough focus on grammar or actual conversation. The amount of time they give for you to cancel is not sufficient as a new learner- only a few days. By the time you realize how utterly useless and glitchy the program is, they have you locked into a contract that they will not release you from. Avoid at all costs.

I had one on one private lessons I had one on one private lessons. They were ok. I asked for more on demand conversation/ spontaneous conversation but I read 80% of the time. It wasn't very flexible or easy to make or change appointments. It took me two weeks to get started after I had paid. Also the instructor occasionally took a brief pause during our session to answer the phone or assist the other people in his home. So a bit disruptive. Things I did like- talking to a native speaker and improving my accent and speech!

Russian Language 100hrs I completed a 100-hour Russian language course with an "in-person" tutor which took place over Skype. Due to my busy schedule, I was only able to conduct lessons Tues-Wed for two hours at a time. The individual lessons were effective, and they included speaking, reading, and listening. There were very few instances in which English was spoken. The lessons were not only catered towards the DLPT because that was not the overall goal. The overall goal was to improve my speaking ability and vocabulary into new topics, and that goal was met. I highly recommend Berlitz.

truly worth the money truly worth the money. i've improved dramatically over the course and am enrolling in another. I've tried lots of different language learning methods, but this is the closest I've found to full immersion online. Berlitz works with you to help you find a teacher you love, the course material is effective, and I've jumped from A1 to B1 over the course of French 2 (with some supplementary work on dictation and reading). Highly recommend.
