Start your course any time. You just make an appointment for enrolment (Introduction) and off you go!

If you need to take a break in your course to go on a business trip, vacation or you are ill: no problem. Just inform us of the length of your absence and we will extend your course time accordingly. So you will not miss any part of your programme. This is only possible in the Dolphin® learning system: without exception, every course participant completes 100% of their course program.

As a child, we learn our mother tongue by constantly repeating what we have said. This is also possible in our Dolphin learning system, you can repeat the multimedia lessons as often as you like!

On average there are only 2 students per teacher lesson, maximum 5 students.

The average study length is 5-6 weeks per level. It is possible to study more intensively, if you have the time. You need to spend between 22 and 25 hours studying per level.
