Language of instruction

Our courses are taught in German (B1, B2) and English (B2). Students who wish to participate in certain German-language courses must demonstrate proficiency in German (at least level B2 of the CEFRL). In the other German-language courses, however, the teachers can respond flexibly to the language skills of the participants. It is also always possible to switch briefly to English if you have questions or want to sum up what has been said.

Cooperative partners

In order to ensure that we can offer a wide range of courses at a consistently high level of quality, we collaborate closely with various departments and institutions at Saarland University:

  • Career Center
  • Department of English - The Writing Center
  • Department of German Language and Literature, Chair of German as a Foreign Language
  • Teaching and Learning Centre (ZeLL)
