Learn German in Vienna

Courses in Vienna

In Vienna, we offer intensive group courses of 20 lessons per week, which take place in small groups of no more than 12 students. This is the ideal course if you would like to sharpen up on your general German skills with fellow language-lovers from all over the world.

If there are specific areas of German that you would like to focus on, you may wish to take a course of private lessons. You can even combine your group learning with individual tuition on an intensive + private lessons course.

Take an intensive + mini-group course, where you will join the intensive group course for 20 lessons each week and receive an additional 10 lessons in mini-groups.

We also offer a business course, which is available on specific dates throughout the year, and is a perfect option for students who are looking to improve their German for work. Improve your general German skills for 20 lessons each week and spend the additional 10 lessons learning business-focused skills, such as presentations, interview techniques and meetings.

Accommodation

You don’t have to worry about finding accommodation for your stay in Vienna – let our school arrange it for you! They work with lots of Austrian host families, who’ll provide you with plenty of German practice and, if you like, one or two meals per day. You can also opt for ‘room only’ for a more independent experience.

If you’d rather live with your fellow students from the school, choose a single or twin room in our school’s high-quality student residence, located just 10-15 minutes from the school and the city centre by public transport. All rooms have satellite TV, radio and free Wi-Fi Internet access, as well as shared use of bathroom and kitchen facilities. Choose the student residence plus option for a room in the same residence with a private bathroom and kitchen.

We also offer shared apartment accommodation, where you will have your own bedroom and share kitchen and bathroom facilities with other students from the school. Most apartments are equipped with their own washing machine and TV.

If you are travelling in July or August, you also have the option to stay in the school’s summer residence. This residence is located around 20-30 minutes to the school and city centre by public transport and consists of single and shared rooms with shared bathroom and kitchen facilities. Please note that kitchen utensils are not provided.

Activities

To help you learn as much about the German language and Vienna as possible during your course, our school organises a cultural program including tours of Vienna, cultural discussions, Waltz courses, sports, and visits to cities such as Salzburg, Budapest and Prague. Weekend skiing trips are also arranged during ski-season, giving you the opportunity to experience Semmering and the Hohe Wand-Wiese!

I really loved the German course. I did new things and learned new things. The people in my class were nice and we also had lots of fun. I think I was in the correct level. The teachers were really excellent.

The course was very good, also because the students are not many and in some lessons i was alone. The activities for the afternoon and the evening were good also. The accommodation was clean and nice.

Course
The challenge of lessons given solely in German has really improved my understanding of the spoken language. However there could have been more practice in conversation, beyond just answering the teacher's questions.

Accommodation
Was impressed by the quality of the apartment, but it could have been better maintained.

The course was good. I felt I was put into the right level class. Overall my teachers were excellent, patient and well organised. The classes were good. Accommodation was good, in a good location not too far from the school. It was clean and tidy. The school was modern and had a nice atmosphere. I had a great time. I shall definitely think about doing another longer course. Both Apple Languages and the school have been very helpful. Thank you!
