Standard 15
In a normal language school situation, students often have no motivation to continue speaking German after their classes are over. This is different from HLI’s home tuition programme, as the student is given 15 hours of private lessons every week, and is also able to continue conversing with the host family in German in their free time.
All home tuition teachers have the necessary qualifications and work closely with the school’s Local Organisers, who are agents located nearby who ensure that quality standards are being met. Whether you’re just starting your German language journey or if you’re a returning veteran who wants to deepen your skills even further, this programme is suitable for you.
Learning everything you need to know about life in Vienna will also be much easier with a friendly homestay family since they will be able to tell you exactly the best places to go for your particular interests, the fastest public transport routes, and maybe even fill you in on how to apply for student discounts.

Course: Intensive Course - 1 week
Student age: 42 years
I had two different teachers for a grammar part and a conversation part. However, as they should have had a meeting in advance, both of them gave us the informative classes. They were friendly and motivated the students very well. So, I could ask the questions without any hesitation. The school staff were helpful and made a ticket reservation of a concert for me.
The school is accessible. The teachers are nice. The school offers the various activities and you can make friends with the students of other classes.
