Why Frankfurt?
Skyline, the Main River & an international community
Frankfurt is Europe’s financial and trade fair hub – with people from all over the world, a vibrant city centre and everything within easy reach. Nowhere else in Germany is the international community as concentrated as it is here – which makes every day a real opportunity to practise the language.
Central – right in the heart of Frankfurt
The language school is situated in the centre of Frankfurt. The banks of the Main, the Old Town and numerous cafés are within easy reach. The school has modern classrooms, Wi-Fi, a separate study room and a cafeteria.
International Community
You’ll study alongside participants from various countries in groups of usually 4–10 people (maximum 15). The lessons offer you plenty of opportunities to speak German, ask questions and actively put your knowledge into practice.
telc & TestDaF – Preparation and Exams
The language school is an examination centre for telc B1, B2 and C1 Hochschule, as well as TestDaF. You can prepare specifically for the exams and sit them on site.
Ten people, one photo, a historic town hall in the background—until everyone is ready, someone usually quickly counts off in German to see who’s missing.

💡 Short or long – both are possible
You can book your German course in Frankfurt for as little as one or two weeks, for example to refresh your existing knowledge or improve your language skills. If you stay longer, you’ll have more time to systematically build on your knowledge and practise your German outside of lessons as well.
Amidst the cafés and parasols, the group stops in the market square to take a leisurely look at the building façades – a day out like this often provides more topics for conversation than a whole lesson.
