What do teachers say about this resource? (6052)

It is great. The resource is very comprehensive and covers all subtopics of Berlin that I could think of. It is also very good because of the range of tasks and activities that suits all types of learners. The use of tables, pictures and links makes it attractive for interactive learning as well. Furthermore, I like the pictures, which help students understand Berlin in "real life" and make it more realistic. I like the way it all makes sense and is clear.
