Our school of German in Heidelberg offers a wide range of courses tailored to suit students of all ages and cultures. Students may opt to undertake a class with other students (with an average of 5-10 students), thus benefiting from the possibility of learning from fellow students. Or they may choose a course where they are alone with the teacher, thus gaining complete and undivided attention.

You can choose between:

Course 20h: Intensive course with 4 classes a day
Monday to Friday, from 9:00 to 12:15

This course focuses on various aspects of German, including the following:

  * Vocabulary, initially based on the minimum requirements enabling a person to get along in a German-speaking environment;
  * Grammar, including the most commonly used verbs and expressions;
  * Pronunciation and spelling;
  * Descriptive composition enabling the student to give - orally or in writing - a description of himself/herself, his course, his family members, his job etc.
  * Writing short compositions/letters.
