Why TREFFPUNKT?

The interest to start learning German at TREFFPUNKT arised this summer when I got a job offer from Switzerland. It was then when I first found out about TREFFPUNKT and its language learning programmes.

The paramount reasons for my choice to study German at TREFFPUNKT were basically the good reviews that I have found on Internet, the possibility of one to one lessons in the afternoon and the accommodation options offered by the Institute.
I spent 5 weeks at TREFFPUNKT this summer and it was a fantastic experience for me.

The courses were well structured, the teaching methods were very good and the atmosphere at the Institute was incredible.
When I finished the course I realized that my language skills improved more than I could ever expect. But most important is that I realized how helpful this course was for me when I started the work in Switzerland. For that, I will definitely consider returning to TREFFPUNKT for another course in the near future.

I have already and I will always recommend TREFFPUNKT to anyone who wants to start learning German.

How would I sum up the whole TREFFPUNKT experience?

... for me it was a once in a lifetime experience.

My tips / meine Tipps:

• Tipp 1: The \"one to one lessons\" in the afternoon are really helpful.
  
  
• Tipp 2: Living with a German family will significantly improve you communication skills. I was a totally beginner when I arrived to Germany and I lived with a \"non speaking English\" family. It was hard at the beginning but afterwards it became better and better. After 1 week I already started to have small conversation with them ... asking, answering simple questions. After 5 weeks I was talking with my landlord about families, football, politics and so on :).
  
  
• Tipp 3: Do your HOMEWORK :)).
