Volunteer to Teach English & Study German (1-12 Weeks)

Volunteers taking part in short-term volunteer projects in Germany will be responsible for teaching one-to-one conversational English courses to students at the Center, as well as instructing small groups (anywhere from 2 – 5 students). Students come from a plethora of backgrounds, with ages ranging anywhere from 12 – 70 years old. However, most students will be migrants or the children of migrants, hailing from various Arab countries. Volunteers will not only serve as teachers, but also as cultural diplomats who represent their home country to the community in Halle (Saale). They play an important role in helping with communal activities meant to increase cross-cultural exchanges. In addition to teaching, volunteers will enroll in German language courses (3 hours a week). The advent of additional language courses is meant to further immerse them in local Arabic/German culture, allowing them to better communicate with their students, as well as locals in Halle. The Volunteer to Teach English and Learn German language program spans anywhere from 1 – 12 weeks, with volunteers staying with local host families during their time in Halle (Saale).

German Summer Immersion for Teenagers in Berlin, Germany

Learn German in this bustling international metropolis, steeped in history, tradition and the arts. Berlin is a city of history and energy, full of excitement and forever evolving. For the past few decades, Berlin has been undergoing major rebuilding and planning efforts, which are visible in the new cityscape around Potsdamer Platz and the eastern city center. But there is also a rebuilding process taking place less visibly - in the hearts and minds of Berliners. The city is made up of 23 different districts, each with its own unique character. Mitte, Berlin's most central district which literally means the center, contains some of the city's oldest buildings, as well as many of Berlin's grandest buildings, strung out like pearls along the magnificent boulevard Unter den Linden. The school is located in the western part of Berlin (near Kurfuerstendammis) on a long boulevard close to the Fehrbelliner Platz Metro stop.

A Guide to German Language Programs Abroad

Best Locations

Despite popular belief, Germany is not the only place to learn German abroad! There are hundreds of unique locations that host German language programs.

Germany offers endless opportunities to study German abroad. From its hopping big cities, like Berlin and Munich, to its quieter educational hubs, such as Freiburg and Heidelberg, Germany offers university-based opportunities to study German abroad as well as private German language schools for every type of language learner. International students in Germany will enjoy becoming immersed in a deeply-rooted and beautiful language.

Austria is the place to be for students looking to challenge themselves a bit more and step outside the traditional route. Home to several mid-size cities, dotted with universities and German language schools, and surrounded by the natural beauty of the quiet countryside, Austria offers students a different type of German language learning experience, with smaller cities, less of an international population, and more access to cultural integration.

Switzerland is home to many languages and cultures, and the German-speaking parts make up over 65 percent of the country. German is the only official language of 17 different Swiss cantons, so language students have their choice of bigger cities, such as Zurich, or more natural locations, like Winterthur.
