Intensive Courses

Learn German quickly and systematically

Our intensive courses build German language skills quickly and systematically at your level. In small groups you practise listening, speaking, reading and writing – either on site at our rooms on Bahnhofstraße or online from home.

Each course covers 180 teaching units (1 unit = 45 minutes) and runs for around 8 weeks at roughly 23 teaching hours per week. The pace is deliberately high, so you reach the next level in a matter of weeks rather than half a year.

Who the intensive courses are for

• Anyone who needs to reach a language level quickly – for work, vocational training, university or an upcoming exam.
• Participants who are not entitled to a funded integration course and would like to take the course as a self-payer.
• Anyone who needs flexibility in time or place and therefore prefers the online format.

Not sure which level suits you? We will place you in a short assessment conversation – simply give us a call.
