Personal comments
It was great value and really nice accomodation. I was sharing a flat with two other German girls who I got on brilliantly with but I can see that if you didn't get on so well with your flatmates it could be difficult.

Personal comments
At the beginning of my stay was a bit difficult to understand the chemistry terminology but my boss was very kind with me and I was able to learn them quickly.
It is a good idea to have german courses for forein people because you can communicate better with people from your host country.
