Potential 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.

This teaching system is outdated and… This teaching system is outdated and difficult to follow. The book has multiple errors. Lesson in Dative... Book materials in Akkus. Or vice versa. Spelling / Sie / Sie / sie issues... multiple errors noted. The teaching style doesn't meet the errors of different types of learners There is no ability to self guide / re-read the book since it isn't set up as a text-book. "Just Listen and repeat and osmosis learning" isn't how all adults learn. No english and no explanations... which means for learners who process and what to re-engage the materials it is impossible Instructors handbook is different than mine which means we aren't on the same page and get easily confused.

Scam This FLEX thing is the biggest scam in all the exciting learning programs. The app / "lessons" before getting someone to talk are useless and a big waste of time. So it's super expensive for nothing, and when you have already paid and you try to change, they don't care about their customers' feedback and just ask to pay more if you want to change for another super expensive program... avoid at all cost!

Hello good morning Hello good morning! I had the opportunity to meet Berlitz through Google, my daughter lives in Italy and I was looking for classes for her this summer, the first contact was super fast and satisfactory through Miss Yessenia, always very attentive and cordial! The location of the school incredibly great, in Virginia, Mrs. Hebert very kind, the great teacher! I am very happy to see my daughter's progress with her English! I am so pleased that she will now continue with her online classes once she returns to Italy! I 100% recommend her teaching services! Thank you Berlitz for her help and all her attention! I am very happy and pleased!

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!
