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!

On September 18, 2026, I took my “ Fide-Test ” exam at the “ ILS Bern .” I was greeted very warmly there, and I found the staff to be very friendly, patient, and pleasant. 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 .

The A2–B1 test was pretty difficult for me, but interesting. Some of the questions took a lot of time and attention. I hope I did well on the test.

I took the German A1.2 and A2 courses at ILA, and I also took the A2 exam. I’m so excited—the courses were great, and the price was very reasonable. I’m definitely planning to go back and take the B1 course if I pass the A2 exam 😊 Thank you, ILA, for giving me the confidence to speak German with others. Finally, Thank you all so much 🙏

A sub-level such as A1.1, B1.2, or C1.1 lasts 8 weeks and consists of 32 lessons. A full level lasts 16 weeks and consists of a total of 64 lessons.

A weekly course can work well if you review the material regularly between Saturdays. English podcasts, short texts, vocabulary exercises, or conversations can help you keep the language active throughout the week.

The classes combine conversation, listening comprehension, and writing. The goal is for you to become increasingly confident in using English in typical everyday situations.
