My name is Florian. I'm from Bavaria and I study Rescue Engineering at TH Köln.
I'm Rebekka, I'm 23 years old and I'm from Geldern. / I graduated in Multilingual Communication.
I’m Ahmad Aljesri. I came from Syria to Germany 5 years ago.
At school I had no interest in learning languages.
I always wanted to improve my English skills, also for professional reasons.
I started at level B1 and have now reached level C2.
As I began to enjoy learning languages, I decided to learn Spanish as well.
At the Language Learning Center I studied English and I took three Italian courses starting from A1.
I wanted to start a new life in Germany and language was the key that I needed.
In order to be able to study Social Work, I needed German language skills on level C1.
My motivation in learning a new language was to be able to express anything I want to say.
It was great to reach this point after only three language courses.
I realized that languages are at least as important as professional expertise.
Language provides access to cultures and people. It offers opportunities
both in life and in your studies.
For my research I had to review a lot of literature in English.
Travelling is a lot easier when people speak the same language as you.
On my trips to Latin America I was able to talk to local people
and to get to know their culture.
At the Language Learning Center the groups are small and everyone gets a feedback.
Especially on the higher levels you talk a lot, so the courses are never boring.
It’s not only about grammar or vocabulary. You also play games or watch movies, which is fun.
The lecturers had the clear goal of teaching us the German language
and this motivated me to give my very best as well.
All lecturers are native speakers which means that they have a better feeling for the language
and they can give you feedback on whether it’s okay to use a certain expression or not.
My tip to freshman students would be to start learning languages as early as possible.
The courses build on each other so that you can make great progress when starting early.
Learning a language opens doors for you - in everyday life, in your studies or in a new job.
The Language Learning Center offers the right keys.
Our lecturers tailor the lessons to your knowledge and address your individual needs.
You learn to act with self-confidence in authentic communicative situations
and you will see that learning a language is fun.
Learning languages means immersing yourself in new cultures.
My team and I are happy to welcome you.
