Ratings and reviews

Overall a very good and quite well structured course. Certificate for A1 level was created correctly. However, certificate for A2 level is not displayed: permanent error message. Addressed the helpdesk, received a fast answer that indeed there is a bug, and they work on it. Two months passed - the bug is still there. Seriously guys?.. In short, a great course with non-existent IT support, which is a shame. Still 4 points for methodology, consistency and structure. Thank you (not to the IT guys)!

Interesting app to boost your German language skills by basicly watching small video clips that goes in one story line and answering questions related to the videos. It covers A1 to B1 levels in all reading, grammar, speaking and hearing sections. All in all i highly recommend it Edit: the app is bugged... Videos are not running properly and it keeps returning to the same page each time i press 'start lesson'... it's sad that such a good app turns useless.

It's a great app for learning, the stories presented in every chapter keep me interested. However I am not so happy with the developer part of it - it's not very stable - I had problems with registration for several weeks and then very often issues with logging in. The Play button on videos currently doesn't work, so I cannot continue learning:( I hope you'll manage to make it more stable, cause it would be a pity, if I cannot use it anymore. Thanks!
