Kids & Teens Holiday English Course

I came to ILS to lean German B2, and over the course of four weeks I believe large progress have been done. Before I started, I only knew some basics, and I wasn't confident enough to speak, but after the lessons at ILS I can understand much more in daily scenarios, and also have the confidence to start talking to others in German as well. My teacher, Ms Emily Schneider, was teaching in a simple and efficient way. Nothing was made complicated such as grammar, and the homework helped me a lot to remember the harder bits. We had some changes in our schedule and had to communicate to fix some conflicts in time, but the school was very quick and flexible to change everything. Overall, I'd say this was a great learning experience, and I got a lot from it. I'd like to say thanks to the ILS as well as Ms Emily Schneider. Thank you!

The teacher, Tamara, is very nice. She has a great experience in teaching German. She has a lot of patience, and she can use different ways to let everyone understand it. What a wonderful teacher! The location of ILS is good. It is not far from the tram station. However, the cost of the course may be mildly expensive. Overall, it is a nice experience in learning German.

The Location was great and the teachers were friendly and helpful. Patryca is definitely one of the best teachers! Overall the classes were a little fast but its understandable! I would come back to study again soon.

ILS is in an amazing place in Bern, near the wonderful city center and not far away from the station. I really appreciated the low number of students in the class, so we all had the opportunity to speak a lot improving faster. The super-intensive course that I followed was veeery intensive, but it worths all the pain! Teachers and all the ILS’ staff were absolutely nice and made my time in Bern unforgettable!

The very good teacher allowed me to resume German. This course has done me a lot of good.
The location was very good, 10 minutes walk from my house.

Everything was good. The teacher was really nice and taught us perfectly. But i would have enjoyed passing a test to know my exact level. I think the level of the lesson i took was too easy and sometimes Boring...

I really liked the teachers, super trained. Super dynamic classes, with easy way for understand the teachers, I liked everything.

My personal experience with the school itself was very good. I had an excellent teacher for A1 and I enjoyed the smaller class size. We had the maximum number of students in my class (6). The location of the school is very convenient. It is easy to walk or take public transportation to get there. The school does host some events for students although you have to check the bulletin boards in each building to see what events are happening. There is also a brunch once a month that is scheduled for students to interact with one another. For our class this brunch wasn't ever scheduled at a good time. For example, the last one was right before we took our final test and stressed a few people out. Overall, I would recommend this school.

I have good experience in the school. Especiall Peter is a very good teacher. She told us not only the German but also the culture about the Switzerland.
However, I passed A1 in China 2 years ago. and have not chance to use it. Therefore, begin in A2 is a little difficult for me.
So, I should thanks to Peter, she is really very nice. She encouraged me "keep going". Now I will try my best to pass A2 next weekend.

The classes was very good but one people spoke very much but it's not your fault. The teacher was excellent, she learns very good because she explained a lot. When weren't a lot in the class and we were able to learn a lot. Every day a took the train it was hard but it was okey. The place of the building was correct. it wasn't near the train station. I had this school during my holiday in the morning and the afternoon i can do something with my friends it was very cool. In conclusion the course was very very good but someone was doing that you couldn't learn properly.

The School is good and the teacher was kind.
But some classmates were always commenting and speaking, so that the course progressed slowly and I did not really feel that I improved a lot my German.

I was the only student in my class so it was like a one to one and very helpful.
The teacher was very nice and good at explaining.
The location was easy to reach by means of transport and I didn't do any activities apart from visit the museum by myself.
I lodged at my cousin's house so it was perfect like being at home.

The timing of the classes was a bit awkward as it was at 12pm. It would have been better first thing in the morning so I would have been free in the afternoon.

I was happy with the class. The teacher was helpful. I wished I could be there longer but I had to return home to the U.S

The teacher, as I said, was very good. She knew our weak points with the language. The classes were very good.

The class sizes were small so it was good for interaction with the teacher. The staff were friendly and very nice. The location was good, near the center of Bern and also beside the Historical museum of Bern, with good public transport. I would say the school itself could have had a separate common room or small canteen for cheaper drinks or snacks - but there were at least two vending machines with hot drinks.

Alll was good. The students should know before coming the course that learning is not only the ILS..

School location is easy accessible and all the teachers that I met are nice and patient. Secretaries at front desk are friendly and supportive and always reply to my requests promptly and clearly. The activities are in a wide range and could help students to learn each other and know more about Switzerland, especially about Bern. Having said that, if the group size could be strictly restricted to 2-6 people for group course, the teaching quality will be even better.

Apart from all above, I also took the English preparation private courses with Andrea. That was a really wonderful experience! She is an English native speaker and a very informative and sympathetic teacher. During the classes, she could respond all my questions in a very clear way. The materials that she provided were also to the point. Before taking the course, I doubted if I could improve my speaking and writing (which were my weaknesses) in a short time, however, in the end I greatly improved these skills and the test result exceeded my expectation.

Last but not least, she is very nice and kind teacher as well. I appreciated her teaching and highly recommended this teacher!

I studied German language at ILS since June and I have already reached level B2 thanks to their method and the good and available teachers. All the staff is very nice and professional and they also organise extra activities for the students.
Besides, I've met a lot of wonderful people!
I highly recommend this school if you want to improve your language skills in a short time! The best in Bern!

I visited an intensive course from A1 to B2 and was very satisfied with the school and its services. I had two different teachers, they were both very helpful. We usually had trips to the city, visited some museums and the parliament house, what I liked a lot. It help me to practice my German with other classmates.

The location of the school is excellent.

I didn`t need a accommodation of the school.

Thank you for all.

Guys you are so cool:-) Thank you for perfect German course.
Ich kann jetzt besser Deutsch sprechen :-))

The classroom was small, cold and uncomfortable! The teacher was very nice and always helped me with my difficulties, but the place was not pleasant!
