goethe institut dublin

Hi
I would like to take a german course, and the whole self-learning from a book isn't doing it for me. So I'm looking at enrolling with these guys.
I'm just wondering if anyone has any experience with them as the course is expensive enough so I'd like to know!

thanks

I just finished one of the semi-intensive summer courses in the goethe institut. I'm pleased I did it and imo it certainly was a better alternative than self directed learning.

The prices are a bit steep although on the whole I feel it was money well spent. Smallish class (12 people), friendly and very helpful teacher and a positive learning environment. Recommended.

I have studied there in the past. Really well organised and they prepare you really well for the European Framework exams. They also have a very good library that you can use if you sign up to the classes. It is expensive though, however when you break it down I think you do get your value for money....its just really hard paying it out in one go!

Yes I was looking at places like languagewise but once I added up the hours, goethe was much much better value!

thanks for the replies, I'm going to go ahead and do it

I think it's that one - one is for kids and one isn't
and it's an extensive course:
