What our learners say
I have been learning German at Berlitz for about 6 months now after spending 2 years trying with Duolingo. I have found that my pronunciation has improved immensely and I have finally started to understand some of the patterns in the language. The staff is very friendly and the instructors are native speakers. It is not cheap, but it is great value for money.
