 Trustindex verifies whether the original source of the review is Google. I really love this language school! The atmosphere is great—we laugh a lot and get to practice speaking all the time. Katrin is honestly one of the best teachers I’ve ever had! She’s super patient, explains everything really well, and makes learning fun and easy. You can really feel yourself improving quickly. The school is also conveniently located, and everyone speaks English, which makes things much easier. I definitely recommend it!!!!!!!

 Trustindex verifies whether the original source of the review is Google. I recently joined the super-intensive class taught by Karin Steiner. So far, it’s been amazing—her teaching style, the variety of activities throughout the lessons, and the caring and fun environment she creates in class have all made this experience truly enjoyable. I’ve noticed that I’m already picking up quite a bit of the language, and I’m able to use it when I’m out and about after just two weeks of lessons! I would highly recommend this class to anyone who wants to learn German!

The atmosphere was calm, and I felt well taken care of.

Thank you so much for the friendly service! I really hope I passed the test, because I really need the results. 😊

I can definitely recommend the ILS Bern .

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs): German Conversation Courses

Learn more about our German courses

I understand German, but I stumble when I speak. Would a conversation class be helpful?

Yes. That's exactly what the conversation course is for. You'll practice retrieving your existing vocabulary more quickly, responding more spontaneously, and expressing your thoughts more freely in German.

What is covered in the German conversation course?

The focus is on speaking freely, reasoning, and active communication. You discuss topics, express opinions, and practice everyday situations, rather than focusing primarily on grammar rules.

For which German proficiency levels is the conversation course suitable?

On the current course page, A1, A2, B1, and B2 are listed as mixed-level groups. The course is therefore also aimed at learners who are not yet at an advanced level but would like to use their spoken German more actively.

When does the German conversation course take place in Bern?

The class takes place on Fridays from 5:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. at the ILS Bern . Each session lasts 6 weeks.

Is the conversation course free if I'm already studying at ILS Bern ?

Yes. The conversation course is free for students already enrolled in an ILS course. External participants pay CHF 150 for a 6-week course block.

Does the course help you speak German with more confidence and spontaneity?

Regular conversation practice can help you spend less time searching for words and build more confidence when speaking. The goal is to carry on conversations more naturally, even if not every sentence is perfectly worded.

Does the conversation course replace a regular German course?

Not necessarily. A standard German course systematically builds grammar, vocabulary, reading, writing, listening comprehension, and speaking skills. The conversation course focuses more on active oral practice and is therefore particularly well-suited as a supplement.
