Student comments
Esmeralda : "The course in general is very productive, and the teacher, Steffi, who gave me the classes was very professional and attentive.
I recommend it 100%"
Benoit: "I can't evaluate the activities as I didn't try any. The number of classmates is important but I miss them all because we met every day and I liked to be with them. Now that I have a month's trip back to my country, the next group, perhaps I will choose a school with smaller groups to train more my spoken German."

Student comments
Vladislav: "1. К сожалению организация проживания не соответствовала заявленным условиям. Ребенок проживал в русскоговорящей семье с русскоговорящим соседом. Соответственно, в доме не говорили на немецком. 2. В выданном сертификате и в других учебных материалах указано другое имя ребенка (Vladimir вместо Vladislav).
"
Aleksei: "I was satisfied with everything, I had a good time and improved my language level."

What students liked about Augsburger Deutschkurse, Augsburg
Shinichi
“The classes are interesting and funny. I wanted to take a course longer. When I had a problem, the school staff took good care of me. It is the nice school that a lot of young people from all over the world come to study hard. There weren't any Japanese students except me, while I was in school. When I did a pair work with a classmate, I gave her a hard time due to my lower conversation skills. However, she kept smiling at me.”

Additional information
Insider tips about what future students should not miss: - Even if you have some knowledge of words and grammars, it's tough to keep a conversation. You should practice to listen to German with a fast speed and express your opinions. I recommend you to go to a language school in Japan to prepare in advance. You should enjoy your stay better, if you are prepared.
- You can stay at a hotel.
- Most of the students who take a course for more than three months have a part-time job and share an apartment with another student.

“I was in Augsburg for 4 weeks and it was an amazing experience. Teaching in the school is on the high level. In my class, there was a very pleasant atmosphere and everybody wanted to learn German which is great. My homestay was also amazing and the family was very kind. It was 10-15 minutes by bus to the school. If you want to make progress in German and meet new friends, go to the Augsburg. It is definitely worth it!”

“The course was very intensive (4 hours a day, with a lot of homework too) which helped me to make great progress in 2 months. Back in my hometown, I can only find a German course with 3 hours a week.
And newcomers can join the ADK German course every week, it fits my plan perfectly! I wrote my B1 Prüfung just the day before yesterday, and was happy with the exam organization.”

Insider tips about what future students should not miss: Check the exam date before applying. I didn't do so and had to extend my stay for one more week to fit the exam date.
Other comments: It would be great if there were more classrooms and toilets, then one can lose less time in waiting. The school has no library, but the Städtische Bücherei is just next door, it was acceptable.
Esmeralda 41 years
“The course is very good, if you try hard you learn a lot. They are very professional and in the face of any problem they try to help you as much as possible. With the family I was not so lucky, the lady of the house did care for me, but the rest of the family locked themselves in the rooms and hardly spoke to me. But the course made up for it.”

“All teachers are focused on the student´s result. Help and attention are to everyone: they explain everything, until you understand. They make sure that the students from the same countries are not sitting together. You can ask any questions and get an advice. If you will be focusing on studying and not on having fun, you will see a result.”
