I took a month-long online German Telc B2 Test Preparation course taught by Helga, with 3 other students from diverse backgrounds. It was just likebeing in a live classroom.

She brought us through the different sections of the test with realistic simulations, focused on the areas where each student was weakest, and provided helpful tips without which I could not have passed the test.

In addition, we had lots of opportunity to speak, which you need both for the test and for real life.

I recommend Helga to anyone looking to improve their overall German ability.

ヘルガ先生は会話練習を大切にしてくださり、楽しく学べるように工夫してくれます。

ホワイトボードを使ったパーソナルな解説はとてもわかりやすいです。

さらに教科書の説明と組み合わせて学べるので、理解が深まり大好きです。

Participé en un curso intensivo de alemán B2 el cual estuvo bajo la enseñanza de la mae:

Helga Kessinger. Las clases fueron impartidas via Online debido a la situación actual con la pandemia, sin embargo fueron de alta calidad, con una buena organización, excelente atención a cada alumno con buena resolución de dudas, y una dinámica fluida con la que se mantenía siempre la atención y se aseguraba la retención de conceptos nuevos en cada clase.

Recomiendo ampliamente los cursos de alemán sean intensivos o de preparación para exámenes de certificación con la maestra Helga Kessinger.

Excelente curso en línea. Helga es una excelente profesora que se preocupa por cada alumno.

Durante el tiempo que la tuve como profesora noté que mi alemán mejoraba tanto en la escritura como en el habla. Me siento confiado con mis habilidades con el alemán.

¡Recomiendo totalmente el curso!

I wholeheartedly recommend Helga as a German language teacher. My experience with her over the past 3 years while learning German and preparing for both A2 and B1 has been nothing short of exemplary.

Helga’s comprehensive approach to learning encompasses not only the grammatical and vocabulary aspects but also includes an understanding of cultural delicacies.

 In summary, her contribution to my German language learning journey has been invaluable.
