Testimonials

After two semesters of General Engineering at DIT, I wanted to perfect my German by taking part in the preparatory semester "Let's get started". So I started the program on 17 March 2015. At the end of July, I successfully passed the TestDaF exam. In October of the same year, I started the study program "Resources and Environmental Management" at DIT. I found this preparatory course with its practical learning methods by highly qualified professors very efficient. During the course, reading and listening comprehension are practiced very intensively. In addition, great importance is attached to correct writing and speaking during the course. We were students from different countries and yet we always spoke German in class. I find that very important. Furthermore, there was always a great atmosphere in the course and it was great fun. So I can recommend "Let's get started" 100% to other students.

Before I came to Germany, I was looking for an intensive German course that would give me the opportunity to successfully start an engineering degree in Germany. I found the "Let's get started" course in Deggendorf, which gave me exactly this opportunity. I attended the course from 15 March to 30 September 2015. During this time I not only learned a lot of German but also got to know many people from all over the world. In the winter semester of 2015/2016, I started to study mechatronics at the Deggendorf Institute of Technology. Thanks to "Let's get started" the beginning of my studies was not that difficult, as we had already learned many scientific terms in the subjects of mathematics, physics, and computer science in the course. I am now in my third semester and passed the previous semesters successfully.
