Education

2022

Promoting educational products, especially language schools, is a tough and competitive game. It requires a well-rounded approach and the use of multiple channels.

At Sprava Agency, we specialize in search engine optimization (SEO), which is a long-term strategy that brings in free conversion traffic and boosts brand recognition. But success in SEO isn't a one-size-fits-all — it demands attention to detail and expertise. Here’s a look at how we transformed SEO for a language course provider in Germany.

The International Institute of Studies and Cooperation (IISC) offers both online and offline German language courses from A1 to C1 levels. With branches in Berlin and Braunschweig, they’ve been in the game since 2016 and became a certified TELC examination center in 2019. IISC also provides professional consultations, tutoring services, and prep courses for foreign students aiming to enter colleges.

With a team of over 15 staff members, including managers and certified teachers with more than a decade of experience, IISC has taught 1,200 students. Impressively, 95% of their students pass their exams.
