          German intensive course REGULAR (A1-C1)

You are looking for a course with motivated participants, dedicated teachers, an efficient course program, a competent language school team? Then the intensive course REGULAR is your course. Your advantages: it is not an Integrationskurs!

That means: all participants are highly motivated, the groups are not oversized, the course is much faster and we have the highest flexibility in the selection and implementation of curricula, teaching materials and teaching methods and above all no over-bureaucratic administration. You can enroll at any time, you can start at any time.
The course has been planned as an alternative to the traditional integration course and guarantees efficiency and, above all, success in the acquisition of the German language through strict quality control. If you already have previous knowledge of the German language, you can immediately enter the appropriate course after a quick placement test.

Course hours

Our REGULAR intensive German courses take place daily from Monday to Friday from 9:00 to 12:15*.

*The time may vary in exceptional cases.

Course duration

You can join an ongoing course anytime You want!

Recommendation: Book our *B1super course (week 9 of the B1 course) to cover the most important topics and unanswered questions in a special revision module and thus prepare optimally for the telc B1 exam and the transition to the B2 course. 
If you would like to take the telc Deutsch B2 exam, we recommend the **telc B2 exam training: In two weeks (following a B2 course or bookable separately) you will discuss all the important strategies and procedures for the B2 exam. The course is conducted by telc examiners and thus guarantees the best understanding and optimal chances for your exam.

Quality control

The biggest problem of traditional language courses is that the groups usually consist of differently motivated participants. This happens mainly for 2 reasons: on the one hand, many language schools unfortunately tend to overcrowd the groups, on the other hand, the participants are not always well classified. Some participants of government funded programs (integration courses, Deuföv) are unfortunately sometimes not motivated enough to learn German. This can significantly disrupt the learning atmosphere and ultimately seriously affect the success of the course.

Over the years, we have focused on developing methods to address this problem. We have thus introduced the Quality Control System. What is it?
It is a set of measures that guarantee that the level in the course remains constantly good. At the beginning, special attention is given to the placement. For this purpose, internal intermediate tests are carried out at the end of each CEFR level. In order to attend the next course, you must pass the test with at least 50%. The intermediate test can be taken 2 times in total. 

Another important element is goal orientation. Our interest, and ultimately our greatest pleasure, is that each student makes the most of his or her potential in the acquisition of the German language and is satisfied with the results, whether the goal is to pass an exam or to be able to communicate in the best possible way at work and in everyday life.

In addition, the school management requires a detailed documentation of the course procedure on the part of the teachers and regularly checks the completed learning program, the results, the participation and the regularity of the homework.
Since all employees of the ITS make every effort to offer an effective and competent service, all course participants have another guarantee that they invest their time and money in the right way.

German Superintensiv (A1-C1) 24 units

The German course Superintensiv is an upgrade from the German course REGULAR and includes 4 additional hours of conversation per week in a small group. The course is especially suitable for participants who want a way to actively and directly practice the language learned in the intensive course. 
The course is also suitable if you want to apply for a visa, because most embassies currently insist that the language course include 18 hours (60 minutes each) per week. Therefore, more and more often 20-unit courses (REGULAR) are rejected, while 24-unit courses (super-intensive) are accepted. For this reason we strongly recommend to book this course if you are interested in a visa. 

Course hours

Our superintensiv upgrade to the REGULAR German course takes place from Monday-Thursday from 12:30-13:15*.

*The course time may vary in exceptional cases.
