Ei guude, wie? [Hello, good day, how are you?]
Since its establishment in 1995 our language school has specialized in German courses for foreign students. The school is located in Bockenheim, one of Frankfurts most exciting neighbourhoods, next to the university campus.
It is a small, open school which runs German language and culture courses throughout the year. Courses are orientated towards communication and action: the main priority is effective communication and correct situational usage. Thanks to its careful programme which covers all the aspects of the German language a great number of different subjects are dealt with in an intensive manner and so maximum progress is guaranteed.
Our teachers are all jung, native German speakers. They all have a university degree and have obtained a special training on the teaching of the German language. One of our teams highlights is its teaching method. We also have English-speaker tutors who can assess our students in the event they need it.
Lessons are held every morning, from Monday to Friday. Our objective is to combine grammar exercises with an emphasis on communication skills. Our highly-experienced team and our teaching material make it possible for us to offer this alternative teaching method. And, whats more: our students can get the best of every course thanks to the reduced size of our groups (no more than 8 students per class*).

During the past decades, Germany has become one of Europes greatest economic and business powers. Speaking German fluently has therefore become a priority for those willing to boost their career opportunities. We are well aware of the importance of German within the international and business relations and that is why we offer language courses right in the centre of Germany. Do not miss the opportunity to learn a language while introducing yourself into the culture and traditions of one of Europes leading countries!
Frankfurt, business capital of the Federal Republic of Germany, is a city open to the world, full of ancient traditions and determined to become one of Europes trade centres. However, is not all about money! Did you know that the university of Frankfurt was founded in 1914? It was indeed named after the citys most famous son, Goethe, Germanys worldwide-known writer. Its opera house, its theatres and museums make Frankfurt one of Germanys top cultural and scientific metropolis. In short, Frankfurt is a young, active city full of life, expecting to be discovered.
Every afternoon and weekends, the school organises activities and day trips to nearby towns. Activities include visits to museums, city sightseeings, theatres, shows…and are made together with German students, so you can practise even more! And if you want to meet new people, do not miss our famous Treffen every Wednesday at 20:30!
