What is a German language course?

  • A German language course is a series of lessons in which you are taught the basics of the German language in a short period of time.
  • Course levels range from level A1 for beginners to C2 for the highest level.
  • TestDaF (Test Deutsch als Fremdsprache) is an advanced-level language exam. It covers the levels B2 to C1 and is internationally recognized as proof of language proficiency to gain admission to higher education
  • A German language course lasts an average of 50 to 100 hours spread over several weeks or months.
  • A German language course normally costs an amount that is comparable to other courses.

Why should you learn German and take a German language course abroad?

  • Networking: German is an important language for people who want to work internationally, especially within Europe, in tourism, trade and technology, for example.
  • Helpfulness: as soon as you speak a local language to some extent, you are immediately better able to communicate with the person you would like to help, and you can also get help yourself better
  • Involvement: as soon as you speak the language of someone else, you become closer to that person. It strengthens your feeling of being involved and being part of the local culture. Experience: going abroad to learn a language is one of the opportunities to step out of your comfort zone
  • Creativity: learning a language is a way to learn to use your creativity better. For example, when searching for descriptions or using hands and feet
  • Empathy: you train yourself to immerse yourself in a different way of speaking and often a different way of thinking
Back to top

What do you need or can you do to learn a language and take a language course abroad?

  • Being aware of your surroundings: wherever you are taught, you will always have to take your surroundings into account. Every country has its own rules and customs that you will have to adhere to to a certain extent
  • Being aware of your organization: every school or educational institution also has its own teaching method or vision on education. Also consider the limitations/challenges some schools face due to lack of funding or facilities.
  • Communication skills: some prior knowledge of the local language is not a must, but it is a great advantage
Back to top

What is the best place to learn German abroad?

  • Germany: You will find a wide range of language schools, especially in cities with a university, such as Berlin, Munich, Heidelberg or Hamburg.
  • Luxembourg: Nice and centrally located in Europe. Luxembourg city is a pleasant city to learn German and apply it directly in your work or studies.
  • Switzerland: A fairly expensive destination for your language lessons, but you get a fantastic environment in return. The most popular is Zurich, but also look at Bern or Engelberg for your German language school.
  • Austria: Combine learning or improving your German with a view of the Alps or even a ski slope. Large language schools are often located in Vienna, but you can also find good language lessons closer to the slopes.
Back to top

What are the risks of a language course or a language year abroad?

  • The coverage of your health insurance may be cancelled if, for example, you go and work abroad.
  • You may suffer from homesickness and want to go home earlier (but there is a lot you can do about it, and prepare for it!).
  • You may have problems with the organization with which you are going abroad (read more about solving problems abroad).
  • What are the consequences if, for example, you end up in hospital? If you end up in hospital, you may have to pay the costs yourself if you have not taken out insurance that covers your activities.

Insurance for working abroad

Back to top

What is insurance for working abroad?

  • Insuring yourself for working abroad means taking out insurance that continues to provide coverage during your paid work abroad.
Back to top

Why take out insurance, and when is normal travel insurance no longer sufficient?

  • There may be several reasons why you need separate insurance for paid work abroad.
  • During your work, local employers generally offer no or limited insurance that does not provide sufficient coverage.
  • The risk of accidents is sometimes greater during your work, for example because you are doing work with which you have little experience or because of the nature of the work.
  • During specific work abroad, additional requirements may apply as soon as you start performing work that involves additional risks. Only special insurance policies offer coverage during this type of work.
  • During work, internships, or volunteer work abroad where you receive a salary or compensation (for example, food or housing), your local health insurance coverage will normally lapse. You will then need special insurance to remain insured for illness and accidents.
  • Standard travel insurance policies generally do not provide sufficient coverage to apply for a work visa or working holiday visa.
  • Standard travel insurance policies generally only cover stays abroad for a limited number of days. If your trip or stay abroad exceeds the maximum number of days, this generally means that there will be no coverage for the entire travel period.
  • Standard travel insurance policies generally only provide coverage for recreational travel without study, internship, or work. If you engage in activities other than recreational activities, this generally means that you will no longer be covered for the entire travel period.
Back to top

  • Make sure you are adequately insured for the sports and activities you will be participating in.

  • that you are well insured in case of accidents.
  • that you insure yourself for legal assistance if there is an immediate reason to do so, unless the coverage is already automatically included in the insurance.

    Back to top

    What sports activities to do abroad?

    • Have you ever thought of mountain biking, rafting (going down a wild river on a raft or rubber dinghy, climbing or canoeing), survival (which involves building rafts, climbing or canoeing), abseiling (descending a rock face while secured to ropes), zip-lining (whizzing down a cable), canyoning (starting at the top of a river and then climbing, swimming, diving down the bed) or caving (scrambling, wriggling and crawling through caves and crevices)?
    • Maybe you feel more comfortable on a bodyboard (on a half-wave surfboard, you surf the high waves lying down-with flippers), on a hang glider or while paragliding (with a parachute you float down a mountain or dune), hydrospeeding (on a bodyboard with flippers and a wetsuit on you go down a wild river via rapids) or Tiefschneeskiing (racing down through powder snow)?
