Language courses
Are you a student at a university (worldwide), a TU alumni or an employee of one of Berlin's universities and higher education institutions? Then you can attend our courses. During term (lecture period), most courses take place once or twice a week in the evening. During the semester breaks, there are shorter intensive or semi-intensive courses.
Do you want to learn a new language? In our courses you can learn over 20 different languages - from Arabic to Turkish.
Meinungen über unsere Kurse
I like the pace of the course. Different types of activities are combined. Themes around the culture and everyday life surrounding the language are also explained.
The teacher was extremely committed, and their friendly manner and enthusiasm created a very pleasant atmosphere in the course.
The teacher is very committed, always extremely friendly and cordial and goes to great lengths to prepare and organise the lessons in an interesting and varied way.
I particularly enjoyed the mix of cultural and linguistic elements.
There is a great atmosphere in the course! The themes are also very interesting and a lot of information is covered. I learnt a lot and it was never boring!
Was mir am meisten gefallen hat, sind der Humor und der Austausch.
Courses online and in person
Our language courses take place in person or online. For the online courses, you will need a laptop with a camera and microphone and a stable internet connection. We use TU Berlin's Zoom and other digital tools to make the online courses interactive and varied. The face-to-face courses take place on the TU campus.
Learning a language at the SKB
All our language courses are led by native speakers. In small groups of four to a maximum of 14 participants, you will not only learn a new language, but also learn exciting things about the relative people, countries and cultures.
We believe that learning should be fun! That's why we take care to create a pleasant, relaxed atmosphere in our courses. At the SKB, learning takes place at eye level. As a participant in our courses, you can and should actively participate, express your wishes and interests and give us feedback.
The language courses are based on the levels of the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR). Take a placement test with us to find the right course level for you. Do you have a particular interest within your language learning path? We also offer special courses such as conversation courses, scientific language courses, cooking courses, film courses and much more.
After having successfully completed a course with us you will receive a certificate of attendance. Unfortunately, the SKB cannot award any ECTS credit points. If you would like to have your participation recognized as a course credit, please contact your university in advance to find out whether our certificate of attendance will be recognized by them. Unfortunately, we have no influence on this.
