Our methods
The basic programme provides intensive
coaching in grammar, sentence structure
and vocabulary. Reading and listening
comprehensions as well as written
exercises are important components of
our courses. One of our basic principles is
to ensure a maximum of oral
communication. You are encouraged to
practice your spoken German with your
teacher and with your classmates.
Modern teaching materials
We use textbooks by the publishers
Hueber and Langenscheidt and
complement them with our own authentic
material. ActiLingua boasts modern
teaching materials and equipment.
Computers, DVDs and CDs are used in
tuition and sessions devoted to culture,
regional studies, literature and business.
The use of our multimedia library and
computer facilities is a good way of
adding to and reinforcing the skills
acquired in class.
