"Learning German is not easy. And if you try to learn Swiss German, it could be as tricky as nailing jelly to a tree. However, the difficulty is not the only reason many immigrants don't pick up the local language as much as they would like. Sometimes, it is just that you are working too much to find time to learn, or you are unemployed and find these courses quite expensive,"

Swiss German is particularly difficult to learn, and many immigrants find standard German challenging as well. Time constraints, unemployment, course costs, and household responsibilities often prevent immigrants from learning the local language. City authorities in Zurich provide free German courses aimed at increasing social integration and accessibility for immigrants. AOZ Fachbereich Gesellschaftliche Integration offers free language support and German courses at Letzipark shopping centre, Pestalozzi Library Oerlikon, and Langstrasse. AOZ functions as an independent public-law institution providing social assistance and integration promotion for asylum seekers, refugees, and other immigrants. Programs began before language learning became mandatory to motivate participation.
