I love it, I really practice my speach, the teachers are kind and they correct your mistakes. I recommend it.

The app is very easy to use and every teacher I had was good! Most were excellent! They were friendly, punctual, and passionate about the materials and all of them added their own tidbits here and there. Also, all of the other students were friendly and respectful! It was wonderful to connect with other Deutsch learners from around the world.

Great teachers, easy to follow lessons, smooth experience

The teachers are good and course structure are great. However the customer services are bad! They do not response to your questions, and they always find excuses to devalidate your qualification to complete the course in time in order to entitle for more classes.
Really disappointed with how their customer services and not really a platform to encourage you to take more classes.

I like the in-person lessons, I am motivated to work in advance to get the most out of them

What I don’t like is that the material is mostly in the tu form for you. Maybe in the workplace tu is ok, but it certainly isn’t outside of that. I would like more practice in using vous form

in general great

The instructors & course material have been great. After 4 classes, my confidence level has increased so that I am able to converse more freely using the grammar & vocabulary provided.

Good teachers, feedback from teachers,good material , good recap exercise, interesting to be in class with participants from all over the World.

I love this teaching and learning methodology! You can easily follow the material, and everything is very well prepared. You can review the material before the lesson and after the lesson (but no homework nor learning from the classical language books), and there are also extra tasks and exercises. The teachers are very friendly, they guide you through the lessons, and they always give something more of themselves. I love it! 😊

Motivating, easy

I like that the classes are flexible, and that booking ahead made it seem effortless to show up, so even on bad day it got me to practice

We all know plunging into speaking is one of the best ways to get fluent faster, but Lingoda is the only platform (from my experience) that follows a set 'curriculum' to make learning structured. I know Spanish isn't the hardest language for English/French speakers but I seriously became conversationally fluent (yes, I still make mistakes in almost every sentence but the point is I am no longer shy about speaking, I can maintain a conversation, and I genuinely enjoy it) in just two months with their sprint. I did the normal sprint, not the 'class every day' one... and even with that, I got to a really good level pretty quickly.

I've been studying on Lingoda for four years, I've completed more than 220 lessons, and I have to say that I haven't achieved my goal of speaking fluently. Lingoda is useful for interacting with others in English, but it doesn't really help improve your language skills. I have finally decided to leave Lingoda.

Joined the German two-month sprint and I've been enjoying my regular lessons with Lingoda! Lesson materials are well designed to cover vocabulary, grammar and communication, and I also found Lingobites (in-app exercises) helpful to recap what I learned in class.

One downside is that you can't really choose teachers for each lesson, as a teacher usually gets allocated after someone signs up for the scheduled class, and the assigned teacher can also change at the last minute.
Since each teacher has a different teaching approach and I liked some over others, it would've been nice if I had been able to select lessons with the teachers I liked.

I loved the availability of the classes throughout the day, motivation of the teachers and structure of the classes.

Flexibility and having different teachers for every lecture is very helpful to learn a new language. Teachers are very good. It is a great experience!

The classes are very helpful, teachers are friendly and committed. I mostly like it because of my rotational shift job i couldnt find an online class to learn German but Lingoda has made it veryy easyy. Am so happy with my progress and would recommend any beginner and someone scared to speak.

I's always great to meet teachers mother tongue.
We have a lot ofuseful material to prepare the lections. Good reports from the teachers and useful corrections. We also have material after lection to compare, understand our mistakes. And vocabolarym grammar, and different tools: each of them with meaning and pronuntiation!

In general the course is discreet but many times I found myself in courses with very lower level people ( overestimate their own German level) . I would like to have more chances of talking and less crowded people. Already+ 3 is hard to get enough talk opportunities

Reason for 2 rating is cancelation policy of minimum 24 hours is too long and is not adequately flexible to account for unforseen circumstances. I would recommend no more than 12 hours.

I joined the Lingoda Sprint program to stay motivated and practice German every day. The concept is good and it definitely encourages you to study consistently.

However, my experience with the rules and customer support was very disappointing. On the very first day, I accidentally booked two classes on the same day. Because of the strict 7-day rescheduling rule and the lack of available days in between, I was forced to drop one class, which automatically disqualified me from the Sprint reward. I immediately contacted customer support and explained that it was the first day and an honest mistake. At that time, I could have even cancelled my contract during the trial period, but I chose to continue the program.

Despite attending classes consistently for 60 days and following all the other rules, Lingoda refused to grant the half price credit of €760 ( 60 group class)

While Sprint can motivate you to practice German daily, it becomes a very expensive program because Lingoda seems to do everything possible to avoid paying the promised reward.

Unfortunately, my experience left me feeling that the program was far more expensive than its real value. This is not a private session group class with 3-5 people around the world.
