For individual support and personal development
Learning German and Cultures
Thanks to long-standing co-operations with language institutes, our students can enjoy a successful start of their school career. That way the transition from a language school can take place with ease and in close accordance.
Additional German classes within the framework of classes and additional intercultural offers stabilize competences. Classes and the extracurricular life takes place in German. That way, students learn naturally in their daily lives. In the first year of their stay, students visit German courses during their vacations.
On the weekends, we offer a special program with different activities, workshops or excursions. This strengthens the community enables many different experiences beyond lessons and school routine.
Support in small groups with fixed contact person and confidant
Through individual support and personal attention, our dedicated and experienced team ensures that each young person settles in quickly. Every educator takes care about defined groups of appr. 8 - 10 students.
That way, a very personal relationship becomes possible. The group educator is the first contact and confidant for parents and students. They support their youths comprehensively and are available to them during study hall. Therefore, performance development can be individually chaperoned. The group educator has weekly talks with parents for ideal communication.
We are therefore able to support and assist each individual in their learning and in managing their daily lives, while keeping in mind the special talents, interests and needs of each individual. This means that the young people are provided with the ideal conditions for successful learning and extensive opportunities for purposeful leisure activities.
It is our task and our goal to help students to learn to take responsibility for themselves and for others in today’s complex society.
The young people in our boarding houses are given opportunities to express their views and air grievances. They have a say in relation to investment, acquisitions and rules in the boarding houses.

There’s no chance of being bored! Whether it’s sport, art or culture, technology or handicrafts, music or a social assignment, and whether with friends or by yourself – with us there is a broad range of options for every interest.
