I've been studying German here, starting at the A1 level and now at the A2 level. The admin team at ILS is super friendly and always ready to help. They really go the extra mile to make sure everything runs smoothly. The facilities are great and very comfortable, and the teachers are super dedicated, too. It makes the whole experience awesome!

This is the best German course I’ve taken in Switzerland so far!
The classes are exceptionally well-organized, the learning environment is very pleasant, and the quality of instruction makes a huge difference. Here, I feel like I’m really learning German and gaining a better understanding of the language.
A very special thank you goes to Kathy and Marc. Both teach with a great deal of patience, dedication, and passion. They manage to explain even difficult topics in a way that’s easy to understand and to motivate the students. You can tell that they do their jobs with heart and joy.
Thank you so much for this wonderful learning experience!

I just finished the B1 super-intensive course here, and I had a very positive experience. I had a few gaps in my knowledge from the A2 level, but I still found the course manageable and, for the most part, not too hard to understand—thanks to our teacher, Luca. We all understood all the topics, and I think the course is genuinely very effective.
