German Courses Beyond Levels

German courses built around what you need

Not everyone learns German the same way. So why should every course follow the same path?

Maybe you've learned German with an app. Maybe you've lived in Germany for years. Maybe you understand almost everything, but when it's time to speak, you lose confidence. Or perhaps you've attended several German courses and still have grammar gaps that never really disappeared.

And maybe your German simply doesn't fit neatly into B1.1, B1.2 or B1.3 anymore.

Then you don't need another standard course. You need a course that starts with what you can already do – and what you still need.

Beyond Levels means: start where you are, work on what you need and use more of the German you already know.

Would you like to reach or consolidate B1, B2 or C1?

Then we'll focus specifically on the language skills you need for your target level: grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, speaking and writing – without rigidly working through a textbook from start to finish.

Your course is shaped around the needs of the group. That means more time for the areas that actually need work and less time repeating things you already know.

Do you want, above all, to speak German with greater confidence?

That's exactly what our German speaking and conversation courses are designed for. The focus is on real-life communication:

  • We start with topics that are relevant to you, introduce the appropriate vocabulary and get you speaking straight away.
  • After a speaking activity, you’ll receive targeted feedback on your expression, vocabulary, pronunciation and grammar. You’ll then practise the situation again – often with a new conversation partner – so you can apply and consolidate what you’ve learnt straight away.
  • We cover grammar exactly where it’s needed: if we notice whilst speaking that a particular topic is holding you back, we’ll incorporate a short grammar mini-session.

And because language training needs to fit into your everyday life, our Beyond Levels courses are available in the mornings, during the day and in the evenings – online or in person.
