inlingua Köln

inlingua Köln occupies premises at Herzogstraße 32, 50667 Köln, approximately ten minutes' walk from Cologne Hauptbahnhof and five minutes from Neumarkt or Appellhofplatz. The school is part of the global inlingua network, whose pedagogical centre is based in Bern, Switzerland, and which operates more than 200 locations worldwide.

Courses

The school's core methodology is the inlingua direct method, delivered exclusively by native-speaker trainers who use the target language from the first lesson without recourse to the student's mother tongue. German courses run from A1 to C2 in small groups of 3–6 participants, expanding to a maximum of 10 for intensive German formats. Additional languages taught include English, Business English, Spanish, French and Italian. The school also prepares students for telc, TOEIC, TOEFL, IELTS, DELE and CELI certification examinations. A DUAL Classroom option allows fee-paying students to attend in-person group courses remotely, providing hybrid flexibility.

Location

Exams in French, Spanish and Italian (A1–B2) are conducted on request. The central Altstadt-Nord address makes the school easily accessible and positions it among the most established private-sector language providers in Cologne.

The school’s direct teaching approach gives spoken interaction a central role. A group course provides a regular set of classmates for this work. Private tuition makes it easier to bring particular topics into the lesson, including situations a learner encounters professionally. Learners can also choose a fuller timetable for sustained German study.
