From German Sign Language to Korean and Spanish – a total of ten different languages can be learned in one to two-week intensive language courses. All classes are taught by experienced language teachers and mainly take place in person. Individual courses, such as Dutch and some English courses, are offered digitally. A Thai course is brand new in the program.
The beginners' courses for Italian, Polish, Russian, and Portuguese, as well as the English courses with target level B1, are recognized as paid educational leave under the Bremen Educational Leave Act (Bremisches Bildungszeitgesetz). The courses are aimed at students, student applicants, and all interested parties from Bremen and the surrounding area. In the English B2 to C1 range, the focus is on teaching academic language skills. Student applicants can also use the intensive courses, which usually last two weeks, to obtain proof of proficiency for admission to university.
