Location

The vibrant city of Berlin is a fantastic place to study. With its incredible history, architecture and lively café culture, you will never be short of something to do or somewhere to explore.

Students stay in the school campus on the side of picturesque Wolziger See, 30km from Berlin centre. The treelined campus contains the students living quarters, classrooms, cafeterias and other exciting facilities that are available to students. It is perfectly designed for students to explore their surroundings in a supervised and exciting environment.

Language Course

The language course comprises 20 lessons of 45 minutes length which concentrate on learning and actively using German. The school caters for students with a basic level of German to more advanced German speakers. The tuition is practice-oriented, so students participate in group sessions alongside other students of a similar level to improve all aspects of the language, including speaking and listening, reading and writing. There are four classes per day which take place during the morning. Outside lesson times there is a varied programme of leisure activities, visits and excursions to introduce students to German culture, sports and lifestyles.

Students take a written assessment before they travel and a speaking assessment on the first morning before lessons in order to place them in the group most suited to your ability level. Classes have an international flavour and a lively feel because they are grouped by ability not nationality.
