Study ATPL in Germany

Hello everyone how are you today?
First off please advice me what is the best school in Germany that i can do my ATPL,PPL,CPL...etc in English because until now i found only 3 schools the first one is:
* RWL, but no English in this.
* MFA Munich flight academy, courses in English is available.
and the third one is HAEUSL'AIR, courses in English is available.

Which one, or which schools can you recommend for me in Germany please?

Because i was going to register in Germany in a school called (Aerolink), however when i called them, the head of the instructor barely he can speak English, and even i could not understand him very well, also a friend of main told me don't go to Spain because even the exam they translate it from Spanish to English and rarely you can understand the question it's like they are using google translator ! by this i was afraid to go there, please help me finding the suitable school in Germany i need to start studying as soon as possible

Check with Klaus at IFR Flight School http://www.ifr-flugschule.de/ in Reichelsheim (EDFB). I did my ATPL with them. Very professional and well structured. Whatever they quote for costs, add 10%.
I did my PPL-A with MFA in Augsburg. Instructors were OK-ish, but the back office organization was . This was 3 years ago and maybe it has gotten better, but back then... And you have to deal with Luftamt Süd which is VERY VERY German. Once again, watch for hidden costs. They like to do that there, too.
If you are starting out from scratch, check with Oli at http://flugschule-mainz.de Once you are in the FFM area, there are some flight schools to chose from. Oli has a number of international flight students (ie. English only) and Mainz (EDFZ) is very reasonable as far as costs go. Lots of Lufthansa pilots on the payroll, too. Oli gives you the straight poop on costs, btw.
I like the fact that I did my PPL at one school and a different one of my ATPL. You get introduced to different facets of flying and you are introduced to different ways of doing things which helps you find the best way of doing things for you.

@ walidnaceri:

I assume that you're talking about the theoretical (ATP) studies? Since they are kinda prerequisite before you go for the CPL/IR checkride, if you're aim is the so called "forzen" ATP which is basically the CPL/IR with ATP theory passed. If you're looking for a good ground school in Germany check out the following link, they are very friendly and supportive. I'd say give them a call or sent them an email (see "Kontakt" at the menu-bar on the right).

Cranfield Aviation Training School Deutschland -

They'll also be able to help you find a good flight school.

Hope I could help and good luck!

@ cavok flyer: the "ifr-flugschule" link isn't working.

Depending on how long the LBA take, we should be starting up there soon.

But too late for the questioner!
