Tanári munka és oktatási módszer

„A lot of progress made for learning German.” Felix Simon, a diák lakhelye Kína. I came to ILS to lean German B2, and over the course of four weeks I believe large progress have been done. Before I started, I only knew some basics, and I wasn't confident enough to speak, but after the lessons at ILS I can understand much more in daily scenarios, and also have the confidence to start talking to others in German as well.

My teacher, Ms Emily Schneider, was teaching in a simple and efficient way. Nothing was made complicated such as grammar, and the homework helped me a lot to remember the harder bits. We had some changes in our schedule and had to communicate to fix some conflicts in time, but the school was very quick and flexible to change everything.

Overall, I'd say this was a great learning experience, and I got a lot from it. I'd like to say thanks to the ILS as well as Ms Emily Schneider. Thank you!

„Nice teacher, good location!” NAI-CHI CHEN, a diák lakhelye Tajvan. The teacher, Tamara, is very nice. She has a great experience in teaching German. She has a lot of patience, and she can use different ways to let everyone understand it.

What a wonderful teacher! The location of ILS is good. It is not far from the tram station. However, the cost of the course may be mildly expensive. Overall, it is a nice experience in learning German.

„Fast But Understandable” Yee Shin Lit, a diák lakhelye Malaysia. The Location was great and the teachers were friendly and helpful. Patryca is definitely one of the best teachers! Overall the classes were a little fast but its understandable! I would come back to study again soon.

„It was good.” Oluwatoyin Badaki, a diák lakhelye Amerika. I was happy with the class. The teacher was helpful. I wished I could be there longer but I had to return home to the U.S.

„Five weeks I learned a lot thanks to the teacher” JUDIT IVERN RUBIO, a diák lakhelye Spanyolország. The teacher, as I said, was very good. She knew our weak points with the language. The classes were very good.

A kis csoportok előnyei

„Intensive time in Bern” Lorenza Maria Lochi, a diák lakhelye Afghanistan. ILS is in an amazing place in Bern, near the wonderful city center and not far away from the station. I really appreciated the low number of students in the class, so we all had the opportunity to speak a lot improving faster.

The super-intensive course that I followed was veeery intensive, but it worths all the pain! Teachers and all the ILS’ staff were absolutely nice and made my time in Bern unforgettable!

„Very good experience” Daniel O'Byrne, a diák lakhelye Magyarország. The class sizes were small so it was good for interaction with the teacher. The staff were friendly and very nice. The location was good, near the center of Bern and also beside the Historical museum of Bern, with good public transport.

„Overall a good school and a good place to start learning a new language” Caitlan Siegenthaler, a diák lakhelye Svájc. My personal experience with the school itself was very good. I had an excellent teacher for A1 and I enjoyed the smaller class size. We had the maximum number of students in my class (6).

The location of the school is very convenient. It is easy to walk or take public transportation to get there. The school does host some events for students although you have to check the bulletin boards in each building to see what events are happening.

There is also a brunch once a month that is scheduled for students to interact with one another. For our class this brunch wasn't ever scheduled at a good time. For example, the last one was right before we took our final test and stressed a few people out. Overall, I would recommend this school.

„It was a way to learn a language, talking a lot with others and having fun.” Mathilde Coursimault, a diák lakhelye Svájc. I really liked the fact that we were in small classes. It was a change from the school, where there are a lot more of us. I find that it gives a more personalized follow-up in learning a language, and it forces you to participate!

I have the impression that I speak to others much more easily in a language other than my mother tongue, even if I realize that I make mistakes. I also enjoyed meeting other people, who are not necessarily there for the same reason as me, who are not the same age as me. It was very rewarding in that respect too.

I loved our outing at the Tierpark. It allowed me to get out of the books and learn something else, for example the names of the animals, other than "the dog" and "the cat".

A tanfolyam intenzitása és tempója

A vélemények alapján a kurzus tempója nagyban függhet a csoport összetételétől, a tanuló előzetes tudásától és a választott tanfolyam típusától. Többen gyors fejlődésről számoltak be, miközben mások szerint az órák túl gyorsak vagy éppen kevésbé intenzívek voltak.

„Less intensive that expected” Noémie Egger, a diák lakhelye Franciaország. The School is good and the teacher was kind. But some classmates were always commenting and speaking, so that the course progressed slowly and I did not really feel that I improved a lot my German.

„It was very intensif” Soledad De Pascalis, a diák lakhelye Svájc. The classes was very good but one people spoke very much but it's not your fault. The teacher was excellent, she learns very good because she explained a lot.

When weren't a lot in the class and we were able to learn a lot. Every day a took the train it was hard but it was okey. The place of the building was correct. it wasn't near the train station.

I had this school during my holiday in the morning and the afternoon i can do something with my friends it was very cool. In conclusion the course was very very good but someone was doing that you couldn't learn properly.

„Great teacher!” Elise Dumont, a diák lakhelye Svájc. Everything was good. The teacher was really nice and taught us perfectly. But i would have enjoyed passing a test to know my exact level.

I think the level of the lesson i took was too easy and sometimes Boring.

„Like a privat course.” Fatih ari. All was good. The students should know before coming the course that learning is not only the ILS.

Fejlődés németből és nyelvi önbizalom

„It is fantasti. Mixed culture.” HUO Desen, a diák lakhelye Svájc. I have good experience in the school. Especiall Peter is a very good teacher. She told us not only the German but also the culture about the Switzerland.

However, I passed A1 in China 2 years ago. and have not chance to use it. Therefore, begin in A2 is a little difficult for me. So, I should thanks to Peter, she is really very nice. She encouraged me "keep going". Now I will try my best to pass A2 next weekend.

„It was really a beautiful experience and the school as the teachers were irreproachable” Estelle Ployez, a diák lakhelye Svájc. The teacher was really good, she took the time to explain everything about grammar and always took the time to answer our questions.

I had the opportunity to do 2 activities outside of class but I find it really good that allowed us to know each other a little more and talk about free topics because we have a few topics more imposing when you have to do oral exercises.

I find this school really good and will recommend it to relatives.

„It's amazing!” Matias Reusser, a diák lakhelye Svájc. I really liked the teachers, super trained. Super dynamic classes, with easy way for understand the teachers, I liked everything.

„A lot of progress made for learning German.” Felix Simon, a diák lakhelye Kína. Before I started, I only knew some basics, and I wasn't confident enough to speak, but after the lessons at ILS I can understand much more in daily scenarios, and also have the confidence to start talking to others in German as well.

Az iskola elhelyezkedése Bernben

A helyszínről szóló vélemények többsége kedvező. A hallgatók szerint az iskola Bern központjához közel található, tömegközlekedéssel jól megközelíthető, és több esetben gyalog is könnyen elérhető.

The location of ILS is good. It is not far from the tram station. The location was good, near the center of Bern and also beside the Historical museum of Bern, with good public transport.

The location of the school is very convenient. It is easy to walk or take public transportation to get there.

Ugyanakkor nem mindenki tartotta az iskolát közvetlenül a pályaudvar mellettinek, ezért az elérhetőség megítélése függhet attól, honnan érkezik a hallgató és milyen közlekedési eszközt használ.

Every day a took the train it was hard but it was okey. The place of the building was correct. it wasn't near the train station.

The location of the school is very convenient. It is easy to walk or take public transportation to get there.

Órarend, szervezés és rugalmasság

A szervezéssel kapcsolatban több hallgató pozitív tapasztalatról számolt be. Felix Simon szerint az iskola gyorsan és rugalmasan kezelte az időbeosztással kapcsolatos változásokat és konfliktusokat.

We had some changes in our schedule and had to communicate to fix some conflicts in time, but the school was very quick and flexible to change everything.

Más vélemények szerint azonban bizonyos órakezdési időpontok nem voltak mindenki számára ideálisak. Egy hallgató például úgy érezte, hogy a déli órakezdés miatt kevésbé tudta kihasználni a délutánt.

The timing of the classes was a bit awkward as it was at 12pm. It would have been better first thing in the morning so I would have been free in the afternoon.

Iskolai programok és közösségi élmény

A nyelvtanulást egyes esetekben tanórán kívüli programok is kiegészítették. Ezek lehetőséget adtak arra, hogy a résztvevők kötetlenebb környezetben beszéljenek, megismerjék egymást, és a tantermen kívül is használják a nyelvet.

I had the opportunity to do 2 activities outside of class but I find it really good that allowed us to know each other a little more and talk about free topics because we have a few topics more imposing when you have to do oral exercises.

I loved our outing at the Tierpark. It allowed me to get out of the books and learn something else, for example the names of the animals, other than "the dog" and "the cat".

The school does host some events for students although you have to check the bulletin boards in each building to see what events are happening. There is also a brunch once a month that is scheduled for students to interact with one another.

A közösségi programok időzítése azonban nem minden csoportnak volt megfelelő. For our class this brunch wasn't ever scheduled at a good time. For example, the last one was right before we took our final test and stressed a few people out.

Tanulói infrastruktúra és komfort

A hallgatói környezet egyik hiányosságaként egy értékelő azt említette, hogy az iskolában lehetett volna külön közös helyiség vagy kisebb büfé kedvezőbb árú italokkal és harapnivalókkal.

I would say the school itself could have had a separate common room or small canteen for cheaper drinks or snacks - but there were at least two vending machines with hot drinks.

A vélemények alapján ez nem akadályozta a tanulást, de fontos szempont lehet azoknak, akik hosszabb időt töltenek az iskolában, és a tanórák között is szeretnének kényelmesen pihenni vagy beszélgetni.

Kinek lehet megfelelő az International Language School Bern?

• Azoknak, akik kis csoportban szeretnének tanulni, és fontos számukra, hogy aktívan megszólalhassanak az órákon.
• Azoknak, akik németből szeretnének fejlődni, különösen a mindennapi kommunikációban.
• Azoknak, akik Bern központjához közel, tömegközlekedéssel jól elérhető iskolát keresnek.
• Azoknak, akik rövid, néhány hetes vagy hosszabb tanfolyamot szeretnének választani.
• Azoknak, akik nyelvvizsgára készülnek, vagy hivatalos nyelvi bizonyítványt szeretnének szerezni.
• Azoknak, akik a tanórák mellett közösségi programokon és gyakorlati nyelvi tevékenységeken is részt vennének.

Mire érdemes figyelni jelentkezés előtt?

A vélemények alapján érdemes előre tisztázni a saját nyelvi szintet, a tanfolyam intenzitását, az órák pontos időpontját és a csoport várható létszámát. Egyes hallgatók túl könnyűnek, mások túl gyorsnak találták az órákat, ezért a megfelelő csoportbesorolás különösen fontos.

Érdemes számolni azzal is, hogy a tanulási eredmény nem kizárólag az iskolai órákon múlik. Fatih ari véleménye szerint a hallgatóknak már a kurzus megkezdése előtt tudniuk kell, hogy a nyelvtanulás nem csak az ILS-ben történik.

A tanórákon kívüli önálló gyakorlás, a beszédhelyzetek keresése és a tanultak mindennapi használata hozzájárulhat ahhoz, hogy a rövid tanfolyam is érzékelhető fejlődést hozzon.

Az International Language School Bern előnyei és lehetséges hátrányai

Az International Language School Bernről kialakult összkép egyértelműen pozitív: a hallgatók leggyakrabban a tanárok minőségét, a kis csoportokat, a beszédközpontú órákat és a jó elhelyezkedést emelik ki. A kritikák főként az óratempóra, az órarendre, a csoportdinamikára és néhány infrastrukturális részletre vonatkoznak.
