Dresden ratings & opinions
How our students rated their experience in Dresden
What our students said about Dresden
Dresden is a city with a rich history, featuring many landmarks and interesting museums. However, if you're someone looking for nightlife and a party scene, Dresden may not be the ideal place.
Great choice. The Elba is beautiful with stunning bike paths through meadows and fields following the river. For folks who like to cycle, this is your city.
Considering the living expenses (quite high), the quality of the city is quite low. Other people said same things...
Unfortunately, several of the major museums were closed for restoration.
Impressive cultural wealth. A real discovery! I loved my stay.
I think very highly of Dresden, it is a very beautiful city.
It's a beautiful, medium paced city!

I enjoyed a lot my five weeks in Kästner Kolleg. I actually could improve my German language thanks the special attention from the staff and teachers as well. It was fantastic my interaction with my classmates from many countries around the world. I could feel that students have a good atmosphere to learn and have fun.

Student support was excellent. There is a friendly, supportive atmosphere. The staff, administrative and teaching, showed flexibility and responsiveness to make the learning experience as successful as possible. Both Katrin and Patricia are excellent teachers.
Very warm, personal environment. Not 'institutional' or business-dominated.

The lessons and the teacher were very good and the group was small. So you had to participate. There was also homework, which made the programme intensive.

FAQ - Frequently asked questions about German courses in Dresden
- I am looking for language courses that can be paid for through Jobcentre Plus.“Jobcentre Plus offers funding for certain courses, especially those that can help improve employment prospects. However, as a rule, students have to look for suitable educational institutions and courses on their own. Basically, they need to contact Jobcentre Plus and ask them to provide recommendations and a list of educational institutions, but it is the student's responsibility to find and register for a suitable course. We will be happy to assist you once you have found suitable schools!
