Why DeutschCafé?
Small. Personal.
Not like the big ones.
At big language schools you are often just a course number. Here you are you. Six reasons why people from all over the world learn German with us:
Small groups, not mass courses
On average you learn with 2 to 4 others (max. 8). That means you speak all the time and you are heard.
We know your name
And your goals. We also help with things outside class, like letters from authorities, flat hunting or settling in.
Speaking, not cramming
Grammar matters, sure. But here you speak from day one, in a group that feels like a small family.
Join, pause, switch
Intensive course, evening course every 4 weeks, language café or private lessons: switch whenever your life needs it.
Fair prices
Deliberately cheaper than the big schools. With Learning Paths every further course costs less.
The app is included
Everything from class plus extra exercises on your phone. At no extra cost.
Learn.
Connect.
Live.
Learning German is more than grammar, vocabulary and lessons.
Here you learn in small groups with people from all over the world and with a team that really knows you. Right in Freiburg’s old town, with coffee in the kitchen and lots of time to talk.
And between classes? Just keep practising in our app: with everything from class and plenty of extra exercises.

German course with a visa
Come to Freiburg with a visa
Do you need a visa for your German course? Our intensive course has 20 lessons per week, enough to apply for a language course visa (§ 16f AufenthG). After registration and payment we send you all course documents.
Good to know
Whether a visa is granted is decided solely by the responsible German mission abroad or immigration office. A course booking or course confirmation does not guarantee a visa. Which other documents you need depends on your personal situation.

We could tell you a lot about ourselves. Let’s rather hear from those who have been here.
„I arrived there in February just with A2 and Gerel helped me really with heart reaching C1 level in summer!“
„The school offers a flexible course offer which was readily tailored to our diverse language levels, and communication with Deutschcafé has always been simple, friendly and efficient.“
„A super professional school!!! I attended intensive courses here and I can admit that here someone can learn in a few months what others can learn in a few years.“
