“I did a preparation class for my fide B1 and passed it. My teacher Alina was the best support, she made sure I felt prepared and confident, and the whole team was kind, responsive and professional.”

“After six years in Switzerland my German had gone rusty, and I was not confident about the B1 my permit needed. I tried Italk’s 1:1 anyway. From the first lesson, Margarita saw how much I already knew but was not using. After just five lessons I sat the fide test and passed at B1.”

“I had a fantastic experience with Italk in Zurich. They prepared me thoroughly for the B1 fide test and I passed. The teacher was outstanding and the staff made everything smooth. I had tried other schools before and none compared.”
