Language learning comes naturally to children – and at Berlitz, it becomes a fun and rewarding experience!

Our language courses for kids and teens are playful yet focused on developing strong communication skills. Lessons are conducted 100% in the target language, so learners begin speaking English, German, or another chosen language from the very first session. All language classes are tailored to each age group and proficiency level, making language learning enjoyable and effective.

The Berlitz Method

Let us highlight for you some of the key features of our methodology, which has served students around the world effectively for 145 years.

Monolingual

Since we use only the target language in class, the children actually learn to speak the target language instead of learning to translate.

Natural

The children learn the foreign language as they acquired their mother tongue: through practical situations, through conversation and with lots of repetition. They also acquire the grammar as a natural part of the language.

Efficient

Every lesson follows the same scheme: the teacher introduces some new material, the students practice it during the class, and towards the end of the class they demonstrate how well they can use the newly acquired knowledge.

International

Our instructors come from different parts of the world, so the children can experience a truly international environment that will make them more open and receptive toward other cultures.

Learning at Berlitz will be a totally different experience for your child than learning in the usual school setting.

There is no pressure on the children here. They do not get bored having to repeat grammar rules. They learn while having fun, getting plenty of positive feedback in the process, so they become more self-confident as they improve their cognitive abilities and social skills.

Our diverse teaching staff provides your child with the support and guidance they need to discover similarities and differences between customs and attitudes in different cultures.
