In today’s increasingly globalised world, anyone hoping to participate in professional life needs to be able to speak, read, and write English. Today there is hardly a job advertised where knowledge of the English language is not required, hardly a company able to conduct international business without the world’s no. 1 language, and hardly an internet website for which an understanding of English would not be helpful.
The German school system still does not provide adequate preparation for these challenges – you have to take things into your own hands. Effective learning is made possible when students have fun while learning, when they are taught by highly qualified teachers, and when the training programme is specially designed to meet the student’s particular needs.
Maybe you are a beginner, or perhaps you already possess advanced language skills – whatever the case, in the relaxed and comfortable atmosphere of the HAMBURG SCHOOL OF ENGLISH you will find all you need to start learning, to improve, or to perfect your English.
For every course, teaching materials are carefully selected from the most up-to-date educational resources and complemented by a wealth of tailor-made and practically relevant learning tools.
The basic requirement for an effective lesson is the careful assessment of the English language skills you already have now. First of all, you complete an oral placement test at our institute, which gives us the information we need to know your level. Only then are we able to find the most suitable group for you.
To find out what level of English you currently possess, you can take our online test. After you have completed the test and emailed it to us, we will inform you of your results. Please be aware though that the online-test is no substitute for the oral placement test. A written test does not give us a clear idea of important factors such as your listening comprehension or your speaking skills.
