The Best German Language Institute In Chandigarh, Punjab. India
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
- There are so many German language institutes in Chandigarh. I am confused, which institute I should join.We agree. So many new German language institutes are coming up in Chandigarh, Mohali and Panchkula. We have observed a quick rise in number of these institutes and the main reason is, high profits in study visa. Many visa consultancies have opened a classroom in their offices to lure students, who want to go to Germany. Teaching quality German is not their purpose, they only want to attract students, so that they can also earn money for applying student visa from them. We warn you to stay away from such institutes and join only language institute, if you really want to learn German.Now, there are some parameters, you need to check, before joining any language institute:
- Ask about Qualification and experience of the German teacher, who will be teaching you. Don't forget to inquire about his German levels and other degrees in German language.
- Do ask for demo class. It is your right. If any institute does not offer you demo class, it means, either it is very confident about their teachings or they have fear, that students might get to know about their low quality teachings before paying the fees.
- Do read negative reviews on Google and other social networking sites. Recently we have seen few new German language institutes earning 30-40 five star reviews and lot of appreciation within one week of their existence, which is impossible. It takes months for the same. So, paid positive reviews are possible. Do read the negative reviews and see, what do the unsatisfied students say about the institute and its teachers.
- Check the website of the institute. This is something, which almost everyone ignores. They just read google reviews and take admission. Never do that. Go through its website, read the content and see how dedicated they are for German. Read about their courses, teachers and other important things.
- Check the study material used by the institute. Make sure, you will be taught by international study material, which is recommended by Goethe Institut, Germany. Many of the institutes in Chandigarh and Mohali teach students with class 6th level books. These books are so basic and students believe that, teacher is so good at teaching and they know everything now, but the fact is that, these books are not even 20% of the real syllabus of concerned German level and when they land up in Germany, they get to know, that they know very little German language and German culture.
- Who can join the classes?All those people who are applying for Visa, going to Germany for further studies, research etc. looking for jobs, want to enhance or upgrade their job profile or salary, want to teach, want to get good marks in Graduation or certificate, Diploma and Advance Diploma or want to learn a foreign language for hobby.
- Is there any trial or demo class?Of course! We request our potential students to take a demo class first. Your personal satisfaction matters a lot to us. There will be a demo class prior to every new batch started and that demo class will be taken by the teacher, who will be teaching in that concerned batch and it is absolutely free for you. Once you are satisfied with the demo class, you can register yourself for the batch.In the very first class, one starts reading, writing and speaking German. We understand the value of your hard earned money and want you not to throw your money and time for the things, you do not like.
