Intensive German Course

These courses are available throughout the year for  students of 17 years upwards. Students can travel for one week, two weeks or longer, we are able to tailor packages to suit your requirements.

Beginner courses start on the first Monday of every month.

Non-beginner courses start every Monday.

Location

Munich is the Bavarian capital city and is the third largest German city behind Berlin and Hamburg. It is a densly populated, thriving city well connected and modern yet hosting a wealth of historic and beautiful buildings.

The German language school is located just 5 minutes walk from Karlsplatz and the main train station in the very centre of Munich. The school is equipped with 11 classrooms, self study centre, multi media room, internet cafe, student lounge and spacious terrace.

 

Language Course

The core course comprises 20 lessons per week which concentrate on learning and actively using the German language. The tuition is very much practice oriented. You will participate in group sessions alongside other students of a similar level, with lessons focused on improving all aspects of the language; speaking listening, reading and writing. There are four 45-minute lessons per day and these take place during the morning. This course is designed for students who wish to learn or improve their German, meet new people and have some free time to participate in German culture and life in Germany.

For students who want a more intensive experience, it is possible to add ten 1:1 classes throughout the week (for an additional cost), the content of which will be decided by you in advance. We will ask you before you travel what you would like to cover with your tutor during these individual sessions, for example grammar, a specific thematic topic, conversation or pronunciation.

You will be given a written assessment before you travel and a speaking assessment on the first morning before lessons in order to place you 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 or age.

Students interested in this course may also be interested in our Work and Study package available in Berlin or Hamburg as an alternative.

Optional Social and Cultural Programme

The school offers a range of social and cultural activities including: gallery visits, boat trips along the River Spree, seminars, guided nights out and full day excursions on Saturdays.

Accommodation

Please note accommodation is only available for students over 18 years old.

For students under the age of 18 we offer summer camps with accommodation or we advise you to consider arranging private accommodation. Some students travel with family.

Host Family

For students wanting to completely immerse themselves in the German language and culture we recommend that you stay with one of our carefully selected German host families. They will not only introduce you to the German way of life and help you practise the German language but will also give you a taste of local and delicious regional specialities. The host families are situated near to the school in the city centre within easy reach of the school by foot or U-bahn / S-bahn (underground/train).

Host Family accommodation includes half-board catering (breakfast & evening meal) from the Sunday before your course starts to the Saturday after it finishes.

Subject to availability, an extra day on one side of your trip may be available on request to facilitate flight dates. A surcharge is payable for any extra nights.

You can read more about what it means to stay with a host family in our Host Family Guide.
