The translated Testimonial

The translated Testimonial

When we have a strong unshakeable belief that something should happen, then it will. Definitely. The entire universe conspires in our favour.It is only a matter of time and sincerity to see it come true. My desire to learn a foreign language came into being even as I entered college. As I was a soon-to-be Automobile Engineer, Deutsch was my first choice. I began my Language classes in 2010 in my second year. During this A1 course, I learnt the language from and got to know my Deutsch teacher Ms. Mathangi.And the Rest is History! During these classes (which took place after college hours), we wrote letters in German and did many group activities. With a so-creative teacher and an interesting peer group, the sessions were definitely great fun (even after 8 hours of college lectures). I was also the Class rep (as it always turns out to be. I don’t know why!). During the certificate distribution ceremony, I also delivered on...

Great ambience and friends – Testimonial

Great ambience and friends – Testimonial

MY EXPERIENCE AT THE LANGUEDGE I came to know The Languedge through my college seniors. They said"You will have have the best teaching and Education". Their words did come true. From day one it was not like a regular class, where teacher comes, writes on the board and explain things etc. Here the teaching style was unique with tailored framework. Every work we do in class can be easily connected to our daily routine activities. The efforts taken by teacher everyday to give the best and get the best from student is one of the things we expect most when it comes to teaching. It happens to us in every class. The most effective part of class is the good ambience. People help you when you’re stuck and German words constantly keep flowing through your ears. The highlight is the weekend class. Students wait for weekend class which have fun activities, role plays, drama etc. To quote a few One weekend we...

B1 Or Not A B1 – Go Soft On Your Candidate

B1 Or Not A B1 – Go Soft On Your Candidate

With a number of students wanting to learn a foreign language, and an equal number of institutes mushrooming at every corner – it becomes a difficult choice to weed out  the unsuitables from the rest of the crowd. Taking the specific scenario of German, and survival in Germany – it goes without saying that a minimum of a B1 (3 levels) is a must for anyone who intends to make Germany their base for a few years – be it for work or study. Despite many Universities offering courses entirely in English, I would still emphasise the importance of learning the language up to B1 – just so you will have more confidence and for easy transition when you actually get there. What should you be able to do after 3 levels of German? According to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) – a B1 student has : “The ability to express oneself in a limited way in familiar situations...

8 Factors to choose a Language School

8 Factors to choose a Language School

There could be a million reasons for wanting to learn a language – hobby, work, study, relationships, art and culture appreciation, travel and tourism, breaking barriers, etc. Most important is the fact that you “want to”. Keeping that in mind, what are the factors one must consider while choosing a language school or course that suits you? Here are the top 8 things you could keep in mind while researching for the same. 1.HOURS OR UNITS? Most language schools tend to talk about units in their brochures. It would make sense for you to ask their representative to explain – exactly how many hours of work go into each level. A unit is about 45 minutes of work / activity. So if a school promises you 100 units of class, they are actually talking about 100 x 45 minutes and NOT 100 x 60 minutes.Another common problem you might encounter is - language schools tend to break up a level into many...
