Course description

Basic Levels

In the three basic levels (A1 – B1) of our Standard-Intensive Course, you’ll learn to understand through listening and reading, pronunciation, grammar, writing, and basic vocabulary. The emphasis of the course is always to speak and make yourself understood in everyday life.

Advanced Levels

Fundamental vocabulary and grammar as well as the other skills are systematically built upon. The focus of this course is on speaking freely and on the different uses of language in spoken and written German. We continuously practice our German in real contexts, like dialogues and role-playing. In this way you are able right from the start to accomplish everyday situations and you’ll feel encouraged as you take your first steps learning German. What’s more, you’ll become familiar with German culture, state and people.

A typical school day

The “Intensive Course 25” starts each day at 09.30 am and finishes at 2 pm. There are two breaks in between during which you can relax in the neighboring park, help yourself to a beverage from the cafeteria, check your email, or chat with your friends. Afterwards there is the possibility to use what you’ve learned in free time activities, check out a film from our media library, or surf the net.

At weekend we go on excursions where you visit Saxony, Berlin, or Prague. Everything is included in the price of the course.

After the course

Once you’ve completed the three basic levels (A1, A2, B1) you are ready for the B1 German Certificate Test (ZD or DTZ) which you can take at our school. We are proud of our students’ 90 % pass rate.

Of course, once you’ve finished level B1 you can immediately continue with level B2 and prepare yourself for the University entrance tests DSH or TestDaF or for occupational requirements.
