Course description

A dynamic course which gives our students just the boost they need to become more confident in their language skills. Our courses place a lot of emphasis on fluency, and our teachers use discussions, debates, games, role plays, as well as authentic learning materials appealing to groups. Classes also revise and build on previously learnt grammar and develop students' vocabulary.

This is the perfect compromise between learning the language and enjoying your free time. Four daily lessons guarantee effective learning, while the morning or afternoon remains free for extra-curricular activities.

The four lessons that you will have each day are as follows:
• 1 lesson - grammar and general vocabulary exercises
• 1 lesson - conversation
• 2 lessons - reading, understanding texts, listening, writing

The course structure may vary depending on the individual teachers and students. The topics may refer to current articles from local newspapers and magazines. We work with texts that match the students' language skills. This way, the texts and topics can be discussed actively by the group.

*There is a possibility of a textbook rental for €7/week. A €20 refundable deposit will be charged at the time of a rental.

"Great experience"

David , student from Spain

The group in my class was very small which was great to learn German. The teachers were very dedicated. The location is close to a metro station. It is easy to get there.

"Enjoyable but not as intensive as I expected."

Amelia Gall, student from UK

The school is small but very nice and a good location. Both the teachers I had were very friendly and good teachers, but unfortunately the experience was let down by the lack of effective grouping. The online test seemed fairly useless, meaning that I was placed in the wrong group to start with. This meant that I lost a day, which is a lot in the context of a one week course. It would be more helpful to have a short interview via Skype or on arrival. The information provided was also not very complete, with the times given being different from the actual timings of the course. All in all I enjoyed the experience, everyone was friendly and my German certainly improved a lot, but for for the cost of the ‘intensive’ course I expected to be challenged a bit more.
