Frequently Asked Questions

The language learning process is individual, and the time it takes to reach a specific level depends on many factors: your motivation, activity level, regularity of lessons, and additional practice. If you have already learned other foreign languages, acquiring a new language will likely be faster. The learning environment also plays an important role: taking courses in Germany, where the language surrounds you everywhere, will accelerate the process compared to learning in your home country. The intensity of the lessons should also be considered, whether it’s intensive courses or evening programs. For personalized advice on these topics, please contact us personally during the trial lesson.
The group and individual lesson schedule is regularly updated for various reasons: students change their learning format, switching from in-person to online and vice versa, or transitioning from group lessons to individual lessons and vice versa. Some students successfully pass their exams and achieve their goals. To find out the current schedule, sign up for a trial lesson.
Language exams are not only a way to validate your knowledge but also a crucial step towards achieving numerous goals: 1 Education: An internationally recognized certificate is essential for admission to foreign universities and educational programs. 2 Career: Documented language proficiency enhances your competitiveness in the job market and opens doors to international companies. 3 Immigration and Working Abroad: Many countries require a certified level of language proficiency for visa or residency permit applications. 4 Motivation and Goal Setting: Preparing for an exam helps to systematize your knowledge and focus on achieving a specific outcome. 5 Objective Assessment: Exams provide a clear understanding of your language level and areas for improvement.
By taking a language exam, you don’t just receive a certificate – you gain confidence in your abilities and unlock new opportunities for study, work, and life.
No, special preparation is not required. Conversation clubs are an open and friendly environment where the main focus is on language practice, not perfect fluency. However, here are a few tips to help you feel more confident: brush up on your vocabulary, don’t be afraid to make mistakes, and be active – the more you speak, the faster you’ll overcome the language barrier. Come along even if you have a basic level – participating in the conversation club will help improve your speech, expand your vocabulary, and overcome your fear of communicating in a foreign language.
