Study German Abroad in Germany

Germany has an off-beat, cheeky confidence to it which is a thrilling contrast to the rest of Europe. The language can feel like a tangle of rules at first, but from the very beginning, the hard work is offset by the joy of German’s rich and colorful vocabulary, and quirky, fun people. 

The fun of learning German in Germany

  • Discover Germany through its vibrant, alternative culture.
  • Relish in Germany’s rich vocabulary and memorable words.
  • Learn from positive, engaging German teachers who are great ambassadors to their country.
  • Practice German outside the classroom with other students and open-minded locals.
  • Learn German your way, combining class time with life in eclectic Berlin, lakeside Lindau or mountainous Munich.
  • Get help from each school’s social program coordinator to build a free time schedule that follows your passions.
