The City

This is Hamburg:Hamburg is Germany’s second largest city with a history reaching back into the ninth century. Its port is Germany’s largest harbour and is a tourist attraction itself, neighbouring the old town centre and being the starting point for the popular harbour round trips by boat. It’s also a city of music, with two major concert halls for (mainly) classical music, an opera house and two halls for musicals, as well as an abundance of clubs. Hamburg is also the home of Miniatur Wunderland, the largest model train set in the world and Germany’s most popular touristic site as well as a range of beautiful parks and a lovely lake in the very heart of the city, which invites you to trips on historical steam and motor boats and also paddling and rowing activities. Several canals are directly connected to the central Alster lake and are destinations of the boat trips and starting points for rowing and paddling tours.

This is our school:We are the biggest privately founded institute for language and computer classes for adult learners in Hamburg. Our head office is situated by the Stadtpark in Winterhude. It features well-equipped classrooms and a lounge with a terrace as well as a sun porch. Additionally, we hold language classes in five other parts of Hamburg. Our dedicated office staff are always willing to help you with administrative matters and other problems concerning your courses. Furthermore, we support the further development of the competences of our teachers by offering them various possibilities to extend their knowledge and skills. Our friendly teaching staff meets regularly to exchange ideas and experiences and would be very happy to welcome you at their next meeting.
