For over 40 years, we’ve been teaching people from all over the world – whether for university, work, or everyday life in Germany. Thanks to our experience and hands-on approach, learning German becomes clear, motivating, and effective. You’ll train all key skills with us: speaking, listening, reading, writing, and grammar. In small groups (8–15 participants), you’ll learn with dedicated professionals – personally, effectively, and at every level from A1 to C2, in the morning, afternoon, or evening.
