“Glück und Pech in St. Petersburg: Die Schweizer Walter Denz und Christof Baumann wollten Mitte der Neunzigerjahre im Wilden Osten eine neue Existenz aufbauen. Denz ist heute Chef zweier Firmen und verheiratet. Baumann dagegen ist arbeitslos, lebt von seiner Frau getrennt und ist wieder zurück in Bern.”

“Jeden Tag verlassen fast hundert Schweizer ihre Heimat. Der Neubeginn in einem anderen Land ist bis heute nicht nur ein Traum, sondern auch ein riskantes Abenteuer geblieben.”
The Grapevine section of the January 2008 issue of LTM highlights our 15th anniversary party, held in St.Petersburg’s fabulous Hotel Astoria in October 2007. More pictures about the event can be found here.
“Liden and Denz language school in St Petersburg, Russia, has become the first language school in the country to be accepted to join the European Association for Quality Language Services (Eaquals).”
“The school, which is already a member of the International Association of Language Centres (Ialc), plans to get its Moscow-based school inspected by Eaquals next year. Walter Denz at the school said that international inspection schemes such as Ialc and Eaquals are particularly important for schools in Russia. “In Russia we don’t have a national inspection scheme like, for instance, the British Council for the UK. It adds credibility to our quality claims and we need to convince agents that they can trust us. Any serious inspection has always a consultancy element in it. It is a very good idea that will help us to improve our services further.”
