Advising

If you do not know exactly what you wish to learn, just contact us for an informal chat. Together, we will determine your language needs and discuss the various options. If desired, you can also take a placement test.

Courses and workshops

We offer regular courses and workshops, for example, on the following topics:

• academic writing
• presenting and moderating

Upon request, we also design courses for the faculties and institutes.
