How does the German Refresher course work?
- First of all, you select the right German Refresher course for your language level and book the course for the date you would like. If you are unsure which course is the right one for you, select the same level as your previous German course.
- If you would like to, alongside your German Refresher eine Unterkunft in einem unserer Gästehäuser, Partnerhotels oder bei einem*r privaten Gastgeber*in buchen.
- The courses always start on Mondays and end on Fridays. This means you can conveniently arrive on the Sunday and depart on the Saturday.
- Our tip: The German Refresher course is also perfectly suited to bridge the time between two intensive courses.
The German Refresher course is perfect for repeating what you have learnt and gaining more confidence in the language before moving up to the next level.

What does the German Refresher course contain?
- The German Refresher course does not follow a structure defined beforehand. The teacher tailors it to the needs and interests of the participants, and compiles a course programme in line with these at the applicable level for the class.
- In this course, the focus is on spoken interaction: in different situations, you repeatedly practice communicating fluently. You also expand on important linguistic structures at your language level.
- Depending on the level, possible topics that may be dealt with in the German Refresher course may be, for example, education and career, shopping, travel, media, nature and the environment as well as other cultures.
