What if I’m in an intensive course, and it’s too much for me. It’s too intensive.

If the intensive course is too intensive for you, you can switch to a semi-intensive course, or an evening course. This is no problem, and we have courses at all levels in each of the different course types.

Why does inlingua Basel take 240 lessons for B2 in an intensive course but 160 lessons for B2 in an integration course or semi-intensive course?

Because Integration courses and semi-intensive for the whole level B2 or C1 (10 months) are stretched out over a far longer time than intensive courses (3 months). This means learners have much more time in between the appointments for self-study and real-world practice than is the case in intensive courses.

Which would you recommend, intensive courses or semi-intensive courses?

With the intensive courses, you will make the fastest progress by far. You are in the course every morning from 8:30 till 11:50 and you have 2 – 3 hours of homework every day. So, intensive courses are for those who have enough time for all that and who want or need to progress as fast as possible. Semi-intensive courses are for people who have many other duties such as childcare, regular doctor’s or therapy appointments, work responsibilities, family responsibilities.
