Finding time for learning a language has never been easier. Our qualified German tutors hold intensive evening classes, teaching you the skills needed to learn German in your own time.
From basic sessions for beginners to more advanced training, we’ve designed our intensive German courses to get progressively more challenging. Each level consists of three parts with various classes – it’s your choice whether you take them separately or enrol on the full year for the best value.
With start dates in October, January and April/May, you can study German part time with our qualified German tutors. Whether learning a language is a New Year’s resolution or you want a confidence boost before travelling over summer, our courses are a great way to pick up new skills.
