The registration fee includes: placement test, course materials, leisure programme (1 activity per week, transport and entrance fees not included, during the Summer Courses 3 activities per week), certificate of attendance, course card and Tandem® learning partnerships (where available).

If Monday is a public holiday, courses start on Tuesday. We recommend a minimum course lenght of 2 weeks. Minimum age is 17. We accept students at all  levels.

The German intensive courses, German superintensive courses and German summer intensive courses are organized in concurrent four-week blocks. At the beginning of each new block we (re-) assess each participant and assign new levels.

A level is completed after 140 units. We use the text books Begegnungen at Beginner Level and the text books Erkundungen and Aspekte at Intermediate Level. These are all supplemented with our own material.

The school is closed on the following National Holidays:


01/06; 04/06; 04/09; 05/01; 05/17; 05/28; 06/07; 08/15; 10/03; 11/01 and from
December 22, 2012 until January 7, 2013

Lessons which do not take place because of a National Holiday will not be made up for.
