  • 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.

Accommodation

  • - School-owned Shared Apartment

    In our student apartment you will share a flat with other students of our school. You have the option to book a twin room which you will share with another student of a different nationality or to book a single room just for yourself. In both cases, you will be sharing the kitchen and bathroom with the students living in the residence. The apartment is equipped with a washing machine, dishwasher and of course a WiFi/WLAN internet connection. Please note that the minimum age for this type of accommodation is 20.




    - School-owned Studio Apartment
    If you like to be more independent, our self-catering apartments with a small kitchen and own bathroom for one person will be the right accommodation for you. You can bring a second person at extra charge. Please note that the minimum age for this type of accommodation is 18.





    -Living in a Host Family
    This option offers the possibility to indulge into German daily life, culture and food and the opportunity to speak German also after school hours. There is no such thing as a classical “host family”, so your accommodation could be with a big family of father, mother, two kids and a dog as well as a single mother and her child, a single person or a couple. In any case, we always do our utmost to match your needs, requirements and interests with the host family’s profile.

学校はベルリンの中心部にあって、とても便利でした。

周辺にはカフェや映画館等揃っており、放課後は周辺で友達とランチしたり、遊んだりしました。
学校で週3回アクティビティーを開催しているので、それによく参加していました。
そのおかげで、留学生同士の友人もたくさんできて、留学生活を存分に楽しめました。
観光したり、映画を見たり、BBQしたり、、とっても楽しかったです！
授業は6人の少人数で、先生も親切でよかったです。質問をしやすい雰囲気で、和気あいあいとした雰囲気で勉強することができました。
半年の短い間でしたが、かけがえのない経験になりました。

向家瑩

其實每天上德文課的時間大約五小時, 回家大概至少還需要花2~3小時寫功課, 複習德文

因為學校也還是會有考試, 每個月底都會有一次考試, 還是要好好準備一下

 

建議大家, 如果真的是初學者, 去德國之前還是多少學一點會比較好

因為即使是初級的課程, 一開始上課進度就會慢慢加快

所以先學一些, 可以比較容易進入當地的德文課程

上課前也會先考試, 進行能力分班

 

除此之外, 其實可以好好體驗一下在德國的生活呀

像我自己, 很喜歡到德國的超市亂逛都是常去的超市

買買當地的食物, 回家吃吃看或是自己下廚來煮煮看

台灣的男生同學不少人喜歡一直不停買不同的啤酒回來喝

體驗德國生活的部分

自己還會喜歡和同學在下課之後, 拜訪城市內的景點

像我自己最常去的就是在萊茵河附近散步或慢跑

三月的波昂還會有盛開的櫻花很漂亮

 

或是跟國外同學去波昂大學校園野餐, 認識一下外國朋友

或和德國住宿家庭爸媽吃個飯, 或是煮個台灣美食分享給他們

有時候和台灣同學一起餐廳吃吃德國食物, 德國豬腳
