Summer School Berlin-Centre

German language courses for young people (8-15 & 16-18 years)
The school is centrally located in Berlin, with the famous sights only a walk away or within easy reach on public transport. The house is spaciously laid out and in the middle of the campus, a big park is located with leisure time and sports facilities, as for example football pitchs, sports grounds, beach-volleyball- and tennis courts, that are available for use after lessons.
You are accommodated on campus in modern rooms together with students of the same age from different countries. You study in small, international groups and enjoy full-board catering at the school refectory. Our teachers put together an exciting leisure prgramme on the school premises and show you the very best of Berlin.
 
Lessons:
You have 4 lessons of German per day, in small groups from Monday to Friday. You practice grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation and oral comprehension in systematically structured lessons. Emphasis is placed on language in real-life situations outside the school, communication and language games and work in groups and pairs.
 
Exploring Berlin
After lunch our activities start, with one afternoon and one evening activity per day. We´ll show you places like Potsdamer Platz, Brandenburger Tor or Museum Island, where lots of outdoor concerts take place in summer time. Of course you´ll get to relax as well, with activities such as inline skating, swimming in Lake Wannsee, rowing in Tiergarten Park or just dancing in one of Berlin´s trendy new clubs.
 
Activities and excursions
You have a choice of 2 activities per day, like swimming in one of Berlin´s many lakes or rowing in Tiergarten Park. We also take you on excursions every week. We´ll make sure you get plenty of opportunity to socialize and make friends - just join our leisure program. You´ll get to see places outside Berlin as well: every Saturday we take you on a full-day excursion, to Potsdam for example, to Castle Rheinsberg or to Sachsenhausen, a Third Reich concentration camp.
