Necessary Intensive Courses per Language Level

According to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages

The number of lessons that are generally required to reach a certain level and take the relevant exam for the Goethe certificate is based on experience. Individual factors such as language learning experience and the other languages you speak or have learnt already play an important role in this. To achieve an optimum learning success, we will assess your level prior to the course.
