GBBarely this school needs any additional… Barely this school needs any additional recommendation. It's just one of the best language centers. As a language geek I've been using their interactive courses and books since young age, and I recommend their online/offline classes to everybody who is learning a foreign language, either as a fun hobby or for job. I've studied German, Chinese, and considering to dive into French someday.

GBPotential Teachers are Being Trained Poorly The hiring team is nice, but then the teacher training is awful. Long, rigid, authoritarian, unpaid and packed with tests and also many demo lessons online in front of trainers and other students where they keep telling you over and over that you may fail and have to redo some other day if you deviate from the exact way they want you to teach.

GBRussian 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.

HUGerman online class - LIES German omline class, for which I paid $1800 and signed a contract for a start date 7 Feb 2023, got postponed by 4 weeks; notice was then given that today, 14 March, is the offical start date and that my course starts at 8pm. In the student portal, the instructor was changed last minute (three hours before course start), and now the assigned instructor has not shown up and we are 18 minutes into a 60-min session. Scam and waste of money! I am in the US (Virginia), not in Hungary, as listed. Also, NL is a racist.

GBScheisse 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.
