Hi everyone

I know there have been many threads on the language schools in Basel but I was wondering if anyone can recommend a good (great will also do) German teacher in the Basel area. I am hoping to do private lessons, in particular to improve my grammar and writing. Many of the German schools seem to focus far more on improving verbal and communication skills. On a similar thread though if anyone can recommend a particular language school or teacher working at a language school that would also be great.
At the moment i think I may give Benedict a go, any experiences with them would also be helpful.

Hi Capetownian, i hade some lessons with a member here called Swiss Cynic. We were a small group of 3-4 and were very basic beginners. I'd sed a PM if you are interested to try private lessons. Good luck! German and Swiss German lessons

Our teacher Michael with Inlingua (1 of 3 major language schools) is good. He's in Basel area.

I am attending evening German courses at NSH (near SBB) and I am ok with it. For C1 and C2 is always the same teacher, Frau Gergely. She is German and she is really good. Apparently she teaches at Benedicte same levels. This school focuses on grammar a lottttttttt.... and it seems that is the only one (in Basel) which does the Goethe Institute Prufung. All the other sisters- schools will send you there.

P.S.: They let you try once or twice for free.

Hi just so you know Swiss Cynic isn't available at the moment until March i think as i have just tried to get in touch with her myself. Im also looking for a teacher in Basel but for 1:1 lessons....

Try Verena Volk, she was my German teacher when she was with Berlitz in basel, serious enquiries message me with contact details and I'll pass on....
