People who bring language to life
Our highly qualified instructors teach standard German according to the Council of Europe’sCommon European Framework of Reference for Languages at all levels – from beginner to advanced.
The intensive courses are aimed at adults aged 17 and over.
Placement test for the right course start
A placement test before the start of the course guarantees that our course participants study in a group that corresponds to their previous knowledge.
Small groups for great learning success
One of the most important prerequisites for optimal progress is the size of the group. Smaller groups allow for a more intensive examination of the language and provide space to clarify questions and problems more quickly. That’s why we at [dig] make a conscious effort to keep the group size reasonable – for a pleasant learning environment and rapid success.

The German courses at [dig] prepare you specifically for the linguistic realities of everyday life in Austria. The focus is on oral and written communication skills.
Our participants consolidate and perfect their productive (speaking and writing) and receptive (reading and listening comprehension) skills with the help of authentic materials and modern methodology.

Questions & answers about our German courses
How does the placement into the correct language level work?
At our language school, Deutsch in Graz, we place great importance on ensuring that everyone is taught in a group that matches their individual language level. For this reason, we conduct a placement test for all German courses in order to determine each participant’s language level and recommend a suitable course level. The decision regarding which level you will be placed in is made by the course management.
To ensure that you receive the best possible support, we ask you to take the placement test conscientiously and to rely on the recommendations of the course instructor. You can take the placement test at our institute in advance so that you know which level you will be taught at before the course starts. The test is possible without prior registration and is free of charge.
Our opening hours for the placement test are Monday to Friday between 12:00 and 15:00 and Saturdays between 10:00 and 14:00.
