The group consists of a max. of 4-6 students and the language experts make sure that the course delivery is interactive and students get individual attention for doubts and queries. However, we strongly suggest our students to follow the instruction of our DaF experts and do their practice exercises and homework meticulously. We do need an honest endeavor from the students to make this course a success for both the parties.
