Frequently asked questions
Find answers to the most common questions about our courses and services.
Courses
We teach German, covering all six CEFR levels from A1 (complete beginner) to C2 (mastery). Our courses prepare you for Goethe-Zertifikat, telc Deutsch and the Fachsprachprüfung for healthcare professionals. Each level requires approximately 150–200 study hours split between the 24/7 e-learning platform and live lessons with native-speaking instructors.
We offer both. One-to-one lessons provide a fully personalised path with tailored pace and content — ideal for specific goals or tight timelines. Small group courses (3–4 participants) ensure maximum interaction and conversational practice at a more accessible price. In both cases, participants are placed based on their free CEFR test result to ensure homogeneous groups.
Prices vary based on format (individual or group), duration and CEFR level. Group courses offer competitive rates thanks to the optimal instructor-to-student ratio (max 3-4 per class). Contact us for a free, personalised quote within 24 hours.
Three concrete differences. First: the contrastive method compares your mother tongue with the target language, accelerating learning by up to 30%. Second: our instructors have direct experience in EU mobility projects (EURES, Erasmus+) — they know what it takes to work abroad, not just pass an exam. Third: for companies in Italy, we manage the entire funded training process from application to final accounting.
Yes. After the free level test, you can book a trial lesson to experience the method and meet your instructor. We will contact you within 24 hours to arrange it.
Business
Yes. We design tailored business German courses for your team: business language, sector-specific terminology, preparation for Goethe and telc certifications. We are an ISO 9001:2015 certified school with years of experience in corporate training and European mobility projects (Erasmus+, EURES, Reactivate). We start with a needs analysis of your team and prepare a tailored corporate quote.
A single CEFR level jump (e.g. B1 to B2) takes about 4 months with 2–3 weekly sessions of 90 minutes. A broader path (e.g. A2 to B2) requires 150–200 hours split between the e-learning platform and live lessons. For Goethe-Zertifikat or telc Deutsch targets, we include dedicated exam preparation modules.
There is no minimum. We train individual executives (one-to-one), small groups of 3–5, and departmental classes of up to 12. Every participant takes a free CEFR test before starting to ensure homogeneous groups.
Method
A teaching approach that systematically compares the learner’s mother tongue with the target language, highlighting structural differences and similarities to accelerate acquisition. For example, an Italian learning German immediately addresses verb-second word order, grammatical cases and false friends. Developed and refined through our EURES-TMS and Erasmus+ projects, this method reduces learning time by up to 30% compared to traditional approaches.
The e-learning platform is accessible around the clock from any computer, tablet or smartphone. It includes interactive grammar, vocabulary and comprehension exercises, materials organised by CEFR level, and real-time progress tracking. The platform integrates with live lessons: your instructor monitors online progress and adapts sessions accordingly, maximising learning efficiency.
Yes, all our instructors are qualified native speakers with recognised DaF teaching certifications. Every instructor has specific experience preparing students for Goethe-Zertifikat and telc Deutsch. Many have gained international experience through European mobility projects, making them particularly effective at preparing learners for real professional contexts in Germany, Switzerland and Austria.
Technical
No. We offer three formats: online with a live instructor in real time, in-person at our premises or your offices, and blended (a combination of 24/7 platform and live lessons). The online format uses professional video conferencing with screen sharing, digital whiteboard and lesson recording. All formats follow the same CEFR-structured curriculum.
A computer or tablet with a stable internet connection (minimum 5 Mbps recommended), a webcam and a microphone — usually built into modern laptops. We use standard video conferencing platforms that require no special installation. Before your first lesson, our technical team conducts a free connection test.
The level test is completely free and takes approximately 10 minutes. It assesses four core competencies (reading, listening, grammar and vocabulary) and provides an instant CEFR result from A1 to C2. After the test, you receive a free personalised consultation with one of our experts who analyses your results, identifies strengths and gaps, and recommends the most suitable path to your goal.
