Many of these languages, including German for some of us, were ones we had to learn as part of our schooling. Because of this, we understand the difficulties of the often lengthy learning process. But our experiences have taught us how to make language learning easier, increase motivation, and make joy, a predictor for success, a part of the process. Now we get to pass this knowledge on to you with the help of our many years of experience in adult education and our team of carefully selected language and communication specialists.

The residence is located right in the heart of the Austrian capital, only a short 15-minute walk from Belvedere Palace – one of the most well-known sights in the city. And at the same time, Vienna’s new main train station is right around the corner. You can reach it in less than 10 minutes on foot – a perfect point of departure from which to explore the city and its environs comfortably and quickly! From here we start three afternoons during the week to do just that, to discover Vienna’s historic sights and places of interest, and on Saturdays, day trips to interesting destinations surrounding the city are on the program.

Summer German Course in Vienna The summer course in Vienna takes place in the Jugendgästehaus Wien-Brigittenau, near the Danube and the Danube Island. The classrooms are located in the same building where the students are accommodated. Thus, the students have only short distances to class and do not have to leave the building. Intensive courses In almost all youth centers we teach intensive German courses with 30 lessons per week. The lessons are designed and created especially for young people: They are interactive and fun, yet challenging and very effective. Language levels In Vienna, we offer German courses for language levels A1 to B2 according to the Common European Framework of References for Languages Class Size Our classes consist of approx. 11 students. Such a small size ensures that individual attention is given to every single course participant. As we focus very much on the communicative approach of the language, while not neglecting grammar, we give heed to make every student talk and participate. Tests All course participants take a weekly exam which covers all the course content taught the preceding week so that students and teachers alike can assess the progress made in the German language. Homework Our students are also expected to do some homework every day, yet they will still have plenty of time for extracurricular activities.
