Every teacher I met here really had passion for teaching. You may have some struggles, finding a curse that suits your German skills, but thats OK, its hard to determinate your skill level in 15 minute enterence exam. In that case, student support is happy to help you. Like they really mean it. I will miss Berlin.

Their level with regards to service is the best. Read nothing but great reviews as compared to other language schools that mixes levels in a class with unhappy and miserable teachers.

Very good language institute, perhaps the best Ive attended. The location is very nice and the teachers are excellent especially with getting the students to interact in their new language. There are also very nice cultural activities weekly. Honestly I can say that I have no complaints about my experience here.

Very welcoming environment from the moment the course began. The staff is very friendly and always eager to help in any given situation. Teachers are really engaging and insightful. I would highly recommend this school to anyone, at any level, that wants to learn German.

Very nice school with great atmosphere, nice people and great teachers, all of them they were great but If I have to choose one, for me Anisa was simply the best!! Is a good way to improve your german skills and more importantly to communicate with your colleagues in german. Top experience no doubt!

This is definitely the best language school I’ve been to. I was only here for a week but the teachers really helped me to improve in all the areas I’d hoped to. Really really lovely atmosphere in the school too!

My experience here was great. I took the standard course and the teachers (Lisa and Jacqueline) were some of the best teachers I ever had. The lessons are dynamic and interesting, I looked forward to going to class each day. I recommend Alpadia to anyone who wants to learn German fast and effectively.

I really enjoyed my time at Alpadia! The teachers are knowledgeable and the staff was very helpful! If I had to name one negative thing it would be that the overwhelming majority of students is Swiss which makes it harder to meet people. The rest of my experience was very positive.

My experience with Alpadia is great. The teachers are very positive, full of energy, understanding and passionate. The reception staff is also very nice and helpful, they answer promptly whenever one have questions or problems related to the course. And I also want to thank the people that always answer to my E-mails pretty fast, which is wonderful. I really like Alpadia and Berlin alltogether!Ada

This is the best Deutsch course place. For me they are provide comfort and friendly atmosphere since i first come inside this place even i only go there for my deutsch prüfung. I love people here really helpful and feel like home. I would highly recommend this place for my friends from outside Berlin.

Great language school, Ive been there a month and will probably return next summer. Unfortunately its a bit small/there where a lot of students during my stay and some of my friends had lessons in the afternon and some in the morning.My only complaint is that we changed teachers a lot, also durnig the week. I would rather have one or two teachers for a longer period of time... from my personal experience its better, because the teacher can get to know, understand and help the class a bit better. Otherwise the teachers are great, not all of them are native germans but it doesnt make a difference.

I spend 3 great weeks in Berlin with Alpadia, it was awesome. The classes were perfect for my german level and the teachers were nice. The differents activities organized by the school were great too. My favorite part of the trip was the accomodation, a great flat in the center of Berlin with other students from the school, a real dream !

I have been in this school for 4 weeks. It was time like hell. The school will ask you kindly if you have something in trouble. But your troubles will soon enter the trash can.There are many high evaluations under the comment I write, but this was written under the guidance of the teacher during class. One of them will be enjoying movies by the vouchers which was given from the school. I was very shocked that day.Teachers are not passionate at teaching at all. They don’t plan to use time wisely, just wasting the whole class.Each of us is like money for them. That’s all.I didn’t care the nationalities of teachers. I just believed that even if he/she is not German, he/she will teach us properly. I was so sick of the teacher of our class who keeps asking what she have already said and telling us that she didn’t do her homework, which was given by her without any guilt. Times she have spent searching the internet, doing her own homework are also be paid to her by our class fee! I cannot believe that and I had no choice but to learn from a teacher who cannot manage such a basic things. I have talked to school about this problem, but nothing has changed.Id like to tell you, if you are planning to study in Germany and looking forward to that day, there are plenty of schools in Berlin which you can choose other than here. But if you have already enrolled to this school, I’m pretty sure that you will be writing comments like me by the time the school ends.선생님들 정말 별로예요. 일부는 한국인들 이름을 못외워서 수업시간에 발언기회가 없을때도 있어요. 이미 여기로 결정하신 분들은 베를린보다는 프라이부르크가 시설은 별로이지만, 선생님들은 훨씬 나아요.

I took two oral C1 tests in Albadia, unfortunately the second time it was illegal because I carried out the test very well, otherwise I got the same results on the first and second oral tests according to the appropriateness of the examiners. It is unlikely that I could fail the second time, so advice that no one should take the exam in Albadia or otherwise he will not get any legal results.

Ha
Review №46

Never again at Alpadia, although you try hard not to fail the C1 exam, you definitely cannot pass the exam. They claim that the criteria for c1 is well thought out. I have taken the oral exam twice, but the examiner still judges that I shouldnt get level C1 because of one point.The examiner stopped the oral exam for the first time because my partner suffered from stress, she only spoke two sentences in the third part, although the third part (quotation part) is 6 minutes, the examiner canceled the exam. My partner passed the exam, I didnt. What criteria does this school have! Its frustrating.Second time, the examiner does not feel like giving the results.You dont feel that you are in good hands at the Alpadia School.

Everything worked wonderfully. Although we didnt attend any courses, we only took the Telc exam Start A1, but all colleagues were super friendly and accompanied us from the beginning to the certificate. DEFINITELY A RECOMMENDATION!A separate thank you to Marta T. and Yuki M. A., the communication was perfect!

It was the first time I attended a summer course abroad and thats why I chose to stay in Berlin for only a week. But I want to emphasize a couple of things.First of all, I am satisfied with the availability, education and professionalism of those who, from Italy, provided me with all the necessary information regarding both the various course options and (once I have decided on the most appropriate option for me). the necessary procedures and documents (in particular I was patiently followed by Mrs. Angela).Also I was happy with the reception received in Berlin. Everyone was very kind. The courses are useful because they speak constantly in the language, both with the teachers and with the other students of every age and every part of the world, and almost every day the lesson is held by a different teacher, so you can hear different accents, different pronunciations, different ways of articulating sounds and different ways of expressing oneself. You always study new topics and for this it is worth stopping at least two weeks or a month.Is it an experience that I would do again? Absolutely yes!At the end of the course a certificate of participation is also issued or, in the case of a more complete course choice, there is the possibility of obtaining the European linguistic certification of the relative language.Council Alpadia.Jonathan

Wonderful experience as I imagined, I fell in love with Berlin, what I surely didnt imagine was to be able to learn a language, in a few months, that before arriving in Berlin for me was incomprehensible, I owe everything to the people I met inside and outside the school, at alpadia and the professors (Edgard, Joaquline, Anisa, etc. ..). Thank you all!! See you soon

Review №53

NEVER AGAIN!My girlfriend could not enter because of Corona.We had to fight for almost a full year to get the money back for the course.The company is totally incapable and refused every request, even though they have the so-called Corona terms and conditions. There it says, if you cannot enter due to the Corona restrictions, you will get a full refund.They pretended that these terms and conditions didnt exist.She only got the money back after she had submitted a letter from the German embassy, ​​although South Korea had long been considered a risk area, according to the RKI.With the return of the money, after the confirmation, it also took 1.5 months

A new teacher comes every week. You dont learn to write enough with the shorthand. Reading and understanding very little. For those students who cannot take part in the preparatory short, they have no chance of passing the Telc exam.

She studied here for only a week, from October 14 to October 18, 2019. I am delighted! They explain it in a clear and very interesting way, everything is in German, I was afraid to speak, but even a week was enough for the fear to disappear.I would like a little cheaper courses, but they are super, I will come in a couple of months more)

I visited this school for 3 months. What can I say? Just a very interesting experience!I had a lot of fun and I met new friends. The lessons were very exciting and interactive. The teachers were very funny and helpful. They always corrected me and helped me. During the week and also on weekends, I almost always participated in the activities. There I had the opportunity to improve my German and to meet new people.I recommend this school to anyone who wants to learn German.I would certainly come back again!

It is a good school! Ive been here for almost 7 months and feel fine. The school has many activities, some nice others less, but in general I like it a lot. Unfortunately, Berlin is a bit sad in winter, but now with the arrival of spring, its something else! Alpadia offers many things despite the winter! The teachers teach very well, but I think sometimes they let you rise too fast to a higher level.

I spent 2 weeks at ALPADIA Berlin and wish I could have stayed longer! I appreciated the quality of the standard and intensive courses which were adapted to my level and allowed me to practice the language a lot while working on certain grammar points. The teachers use a lot of different materials to make the lessons interactive and motivating. There were students of different nationalities and ages in my groups. Regarding the accommodation I lived for 2 weeks in the apartment located in the same building as the school, I couldnt be closer! The apartment is very functional, well equipped and spacious for 2 people (there are two bedrooms). The ALPADIA team at the school is very welcoming, available and competent. Special mention for the mulled wine during the Friday break during the weeks leading up to Christmas :-) See you soon!

I spent a week at the Alpadia Language Center in Berlin. The teachers are very friendly and educational. The week was very rich for me. I was able to consolidate my basics and gain more fluency in oral communication in German. Activities are offered in the afternoons of Monday, Wednesday and Saturday. I am very satisfied with the Alpadia classes and I plan to return one day.
