Doing the Studienkollegin at CBS, i have come across the best teachers in all of my academic journey, the teachers are well experienced and really well educated and make sure the student has understood the important concepts and are easily approachable. The course is well structured, focusing on languages that help build upon a strong foundation for the Bachelors program. The lectures are always recorded making it easy to catch up on lectures that have been missed and with continuous support of teacher the workload is just fun and easy to do along with providing good practice for the final exams.

I am currently in the German Track for the prep4uni foundation course. The workload is very manageable. The teachers are for the most part very good, and do everything they can to help us. I have four classes (English, German, Math and Economics). I have English once a week, German three times a week, and Economics and Math twice a week. Classes are very long, but we get breaks in-between. All of my teachers are very nice.
