Blended Learning

50% of a blended learning course consists of independent online learning.

You will have access to our online platform, where you will find the online portion of the course. This section includes engaging learning activities, online flash cards to study vocabulary, and summary explanations of all important grammatical structures and phrases you will encounter. 

Your instructor will assign weekly exercises intended to be completed at your own pace within a given week. These exercises will prepare you for the online live sessions in which you will meet with your classmates. 

You will complete most online activities individually, but they will also include interactive tasks where you will engage with the entire learning group. These group activities may include posting about your hobbies, interests or upcoming events while also interacting with classmates by leaving comments on their posts.

All required course materials for your blended learning course will be made available online free of charge.

8 – 18 course participants

In case of cancellation, the following fees apply:
a) Up to 10 days before beginning of course 20% of course fee,
b) Up to 5 – 9 days before beginning of course 50% of course fee,
c) Up to 1 - 4 days before beginning of course 80% of course fee,
d) After course begins 100% of course fee.

Students should consider their personal commitments and circumstances before enrolment, as we regret that no fees are refundable once the course has started.

We reserve the right to cancel classes with fewer than 8 students up to 24 hours before a course is due to start. In this case we will give you a full refund of the course fee paid. No other costs except the course fee will be refunded.

All students who attend at least 70% of their classes, and (for courses with an online component) complete at least 70% of their assignments will receive a certificate of participation for their course.

Also, we prepare and encourage you to sign up for one of our official Goethe-Zertifikat exams, which will provide you with an internationally-recognised certificate to prove your language abilities. Course participants will be able to take an exam for a discounted rate.
