German language Educational Travel

Germany

 

A unique educational experience. Living with a German host family is the best way for your students to acquire a profound understanding of German culture and traditions, as well as to help them become completely immersed in the German lifestyle.

Home Stays can be arranged from 3 nights to 2 months. Also farm stays are available. The location depending on the time of the year (as most families are absent from home during their holiday periods.) are small towns near Cologne/Bonn/Frankfurt/Nuremberg, in the East Bavaria, the Passau area or in the Black Forest and others.

The families are carefully selected by local representatives. They see to it that only hospitable families are chosen who will take good care of their guests. While staying with German families the students will be able to gather firsthand information about the way of life and customs in another country. (If they speak German already, they can practice the language every day. If not, one member of the family will speak English.) Home Stay Programs will be combined with Language Courses or normal attendance of a school together with your host’s child.

The group will have one excursion per week to get to know the surroundings of the town.  The special arrangements for language practice will include sports, meetings with young Germans, discussions, visits to public institutions, factories &museums.

The students will have two hours a day tuition by German teachers in small groups of 15 participants. The German teachers are specially trained for these  courses. Our language courses facilitate the learning of the foreign language - colloquial German - thus helping to overcome the common fear of grammatical difficulties. Our local organizer will provide a program for the students in which they have ample opportunities to use and extend their knowledge of German  they will have gained during  their lessons.

For Adults we can organize stays in private homes or small guesthouses where they will also encounter a personal atmosphere. However these stays are organized on a commercial basis
