Options – Learning a language meets your daily routines and personal interests

At the beginning of your stay in Germany many matters of your daily life are difficult to manage. These can be supported during your lessons in the chosen language, such as the understanding of and responding to letters you get, making phone calls for you, considering questions of law, rules of German life or common habits, etc.  Additionally we offer trainings of every day routines (A.). Furthermore we can arrange together with you special enjoyable activities (B.), attendance of cultural events together (C.) or excursions (D.).

A. Trainings of every day routines – supporting your daily life

o
Shopping: To help you find the things you need and manage ask for and pay for things you want to buy – we can arrange shopping outings, visits to banks or the post-office and more together.
o
Going to restaurants: We regularly propose this popular activity after studying restaurant matters to instruct you how to understand the menu, to order by yourself and to pay at the end – enjoying a meal together, of course!
o
Visiting a doctor or a hospital: Seeing a doctor in case of sudden need is very often a problem of communication. We can arrange to help you.

We offer one day trips to visit places worth seeing in the region or to go hiking on attractive courses. Having a meal together can be included.

Weekend trips to the city of Kassel or to the French region of Alsace are unforgettable experiences during the summer holidays:

»
The city of Kassel is well-known for its rotational exhibition of Modern Art called ‘Documenta’ and famous for Europe’s largest mountain park ‘Wilhelmshöhe’ – a world heritage site – with beautiful palaces, the castle called ‘Löwenburg’ and the unique water cascades. Families can actively discover many places of interest with their children. We take care of a comfortable accommodation, and in the evening we talk about our impressions while having a glass of delicious beer or wine… 

» The region of ‘Alsace’ in France reached by car in only about two and a half  hours, is an excellent wine area set in a beautiful landscape. Wine tasting, visiting the famous castle ‘Haute Koenigsburg’, enjoying a water show in a stork park, watching eagles performing their air-bound activities in an old castle or sightseeing in pretty wine villages like ‘Riquewihr’ can be a part of the programme as well as having typical dishes of the region. We will stay in the wonderful town of ‘Kaysersberg’ overnight. Please make the plan with us according to your desire.

» Other destinations can be arranged on request.
* Regarding all features of these optional activities:  In case you are interested in any kind of object - let’s arrange the time and agree upon the price!
