GERMAN FOR SCHOOL AGE CHILDREN & TEENS

We have classes for children and young people of all ages. Our school age children and teen classes are divided into 10 levels. We strive to group children according to their ability, and balance this with the importance of keeping them with their age and grade level peers.

At certain levels of their studies, students will have the opportunity to evaluate their proficiency by taking part in the American Association of Teachers of German (AATG) tests, which provide a national equivalency score to 2, 3 and 4 years of high school.

Students wishing to prepare for the SAT II and/or AP exams are offered special instruction and coaching.  In addition, official exams are offered through the German Government (Sprachdiplom I and II), which could lead to study at a German university without additional language classes.  Please view our Tests section for more information about exams.
