It is our aim to provide our students with a friendly ambience and to make learning as easy and enjoyable as it can get:

• We adapt our lessons to what the participants need to learn for their working lives and free time
• We sign up skilled tutors who teach classes that are not too big
• Our members pay reasonable monthly fees
• We spell "fun" with a capital F: joy and fun are crucial factors of the learning process which are still often underrated
• Learners who feel they did not understand the contents of the course can attend the course again - as often as they wish and without any extra payments
• Special events in English, which are free for our members, e.g. wine tasting and a seminar about the Navajo
• Once a year we book the entire English Theatre for our members for three evenings; our learners can see the current play for only ten euros.
• If a book has been finished, the participants will get the new book for free
• Our monthly membership fees implies a language course flatrate: Our members can attend as many classes as they wish for just € 38.- a month!
• Our lounge (in City Nord): a comfy room where our learners can always read, discuss or just relax over a cup of coffee.
