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.

COBerlitz low hourly wages with unreliable benefits… Berlitz is an authoritarian company with very unreliable benefits including a low hourly wage that is paid upon students attendance. Management is awfull (they do not even pay the parafiscals and lie about it). Managers are new rich who bully well educated teachers without any concern because they have no education at all- people that learnt their language in the street. Street teachers. They even lie about paying for your pension - please be aware. They also lie about your performance - be aware and take note of everything you do! Cuidado ! Berlitz tiene una rotación de personal altísima. Ya nadie quiere trabajar ahí. No pagan los parafiscales - pida los estractos de sus pensiones porque después de los años uno se entera que no los estaban pagando. Anote y tome foto de todo lo que hace porque son mentirosos respecto al desempeño de los profesores para poderlos botar - la administración está llena de venezolanos resentidos. NO VALE LA PENA

GBI think Berlitz flex program is a great… I think Berlitz flex program is a great course to take. I've been taking German for 5 months and haven't had one bad instructor, Maybe I'm lucky but it's about taking your self tought courses and applying it to speaking live. If you're looking for a flashy and fun interface this isn't it but apply yourself and you will improve here. This program DOES have the material needed. It takes discipline and repotition outside of your online courses as well.

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.

GBI 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!
