  • It was in 1984 when BWS Germanlingua started teaching German as a foreign language. Since then thousands of students from all over the world joined our classes and many of them returned a second and sometimes a third time.Both of the schools are in the very centre of the two most attractive German cities: Munich and Berlin. Thanks to the highly qualified teachers, the welcoming atmosphere and the modern teaching facilities the school has earned a very good international reputation. In the classrooms, students from all over the world meet to learn German. BWS Germanlingua's teachers as well as the other members of the school office team are always available for advice. A student library and free internet access (even wireless) is at the students‘ disposal. The fully equipped kitchen is a popular hang-out during the breaks and enables an intensive exchange between students and teachers beyond lesson time. At BWS Germanlingua, extra-curricular activities for the evenings and weekends are planned and these often form the beginning of lasting friendships.
