Lindenberg

- Programmes available for young people aged 13 to 17
German, residential campus and immersion in southern Germany
In Lindenberg, the Humboldt-Institut runs a junior language course that allows students to learn German in a well-structured residential environment. Located near Lake Constance, Austria and the Alps, the destination gives the programme a setting that is at once calm, international and very conducive to concentrating on the language.
Students take intensive German classes and live on site under a complete package with accommodation and board. This arrangement strengthens the immersion, because the language is used every day in the activities, the meals and group life, and not only during class hours.
Lindenberg is particularly suited to families looking for a serious stay, at a centre recognised for its junior programmes. The setting is easy to grasp, the supervision is clear and the whole programme is designed to help young people progress in good conditions.
For teenagers, it is a useful and formative experience, mixing learning, new friendships and growing independence. For parents, it is a solid, coherent and reassuring option for a German course in Germany.

The stay in detail
The Humboldt school and its facilities
Just a 10-minute walk from the town of Lindenberg, the Humboldt school has modern facilities such as equipped classrooms, an indoor swimming pool with sauna, a gym, a climbing wall, a mini-golf course and sports pitches for football, volleyball or basketball. Students can take 30 lessons per week in groups of 10 maximum, but can also opt for one-to-one classes of 25, 30 or 40 lessons per week in order to improve their German more quickly. The programme also includes ski or snowboard lessons in winter, as well as many artistic, sporting and cultural activities.
The activities and the accommodation
The surrounding region offers many leisure activities such as ski slopes, snowshoe trails, mountain bike rides, as well as an indoor tennis court and a mini-golf course. Excursions are also organised to discover neighbouring towns such as Munich, Stuttgart, Lindau or Constance. Students are accommodated directly on the school campus, in single, triple and quadruple rooms, mostly in double rooms with an en-suite bathroom. For those who prefer total immersion, host family accommodation is also possible, with three meals a day included. The school makes sure that students are placed in rooms according to their age, their mother tongue and their level of German, in order to encourage them to practise the language outside class.
