I honestly cannot recommend this school enough. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and supported throughout my entire learning journey. First, a special mention to the lovely receptionist with the tattoo (I'm so sorry I can't remember your name!). You are absolutely amazing. Your kindness, encouragement, and genuine happiness for me when I passed my B1 exam meant so much. People like you make a huge difference in a student's experience. I also want to give a huge shout-out to my teachers, especially Franz. As an international who struggled to learn German for the past six years, I had almost given up hope. But Franz completely changed that. He has an incredible ability to explain even the most difficult concepts in the simplest way possible, making everything easy to understand and remember. Franz, if you ever read this: thank you. I genuinely appreciate everything you did for me. You have no idea how much this B1 certificate means to me and how much you've helped me achieve something I once thought was impossible. I love you Man lol 🤣… My other teacher, Simon, was fantastic as well. He was supportive, and always willing to help. I learned so much from both of them. The feeling of learning a new language, preparing for the exam, and finally passing it is indescribable. It has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. If you're looking for the best place to learn German in Berlin, this is it. I'm saying this as someone who has lived in Germany for seven years and spent years struggling from one language school to another. None of them compare to this school. Take my word for it: this school is truly second to none. Thank you to everyone here for helping me achieve a goal that means so much to me. 5 ⭐️ isnt enough to justify this school honestly . Highly recommend. For those skeptical : The taste of the pudding is in the eating- go try it yourself😁. Vielen Dank ❤️.

Did my B2 für Beruf kurs and it was great. The office team were amazing and ensured I was able to register for the required course and my teachers, Rajani and Komel were both excellent! I found them both friendly and knowledgeable also an important point for online classes, they were both very competent using zoom and the other online learning tools we used in class. I would definitely recommend this school!

Pretty positive impression in general. The staff at the office were extremely helpful and friendly both times I enrolled for the online B1 DTZ + Leben in Deutschland and B2 DTB courses. Both teachers (Barbara and Isabella) I came across are highly skilled, have a lot of patience and give you everything you need (PDF's, Links etc) to succeed in the final exams. All you need is to find time to study. For people who are looking for in person classes, live in Neukölln or Kreuzberg and dont want long commute is a must choice.

I have had a very positive experience with ZeBuS e.V. Zentrum für Bildung und Sprache e.V. I completed my A2 and B1 levels here, and I am currently continuing with my B2 course as well. The structured approach and consistent support have made a big difference in my progress. A special mention to my teacher Isabella, who has been incredibly helpful and dedicated. Her teaching style is clear, patient, and encouraging, which has made learning German much more comfortable and effective for me. Overall, I’m very satisfied with my experience and would definitely recommend the institute to anyone looking to learn German in a supportive environment.

I have been taking the B2 DTB course with ZeBus since December 2025. I have had a very positive experience so far, the course is well structured and our teacher Isabella Wagner is ver professional and excels in her role. She explains the grammatical concepts very well and the regular revisions of the previously taught concepts help us a lot.Also the learn materials along with the LMS application is also very helpful. Overall I can really recommend the school.
