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.

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!

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.

GB600-hour Spanish Course I took 600 hours of Spanish instruction through Berlitz with Alma Munoz. The class was extremely helpful and I feel much better prepared to travel and live in a foreign country. She made learning the language fun and found creative ways to keep me engaged for 600 hours! By the end of the course I exceeded the score required by my employer. She was patient and has a unique ability to explain even difficult concepts. I would absolutely recommend the Berlitz program based on my experience with Alma.

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.
