German camps in Germany

 Picture your summer mornings in a bright classroom, practising German with classmates from twelve different countries. By afternoon, you're exploring Frankfurt's skyline or discovering Munich's Bavarian charm with your new crew. At SPRACHCAFFE, your German summer camp is more than a language course.

Oour German Language Camp for Teenagers

Imagine spending your summer holidays at a language camp in Germany, surrounded by new friends from every corner of the globe. That's exactly what SPRACHCAFFE delivers in two of the country's most exciting cities. In Frankfurt, we welcome teens aged 12 to 21. In Munich, the programme is open to young people aged 16 to 21. Both locations offer the same high standard of teaching, supervision and fun.

Every week includes 20 lessons of German on our Standard Course, covering conversation, grammar, reading and listening. Each lesson lasts 45 minutes, and classes run Monday to Friday from 9:00 to 12:30. If you want faster progress, you can upgrade to our Intensive Course with 30 lessons per week, adding focused conversation practice in the afternoon.

On your first day, you'll take a placement test so we can match you with the right group. Levels range from complete beginner (A0) to advanced (C1), and our qualified teachers adapt their approach to your needs. Classes are small, interactive and focused on getting you to actually use German, not just study it. At the end of your stay, you'll receive a SPRACHCAFFE certificate documenting your progress.

Courses for Teens in Frankfurt and Munich

Our German language camp in Frankfurt puts you right in the heart of continental Europe's most multicultural city. Look beyond the famous skyscrapers and you'll find a vibrant metropolis full of charm, with beautifully restored historic buildings and the River Main winding through the centre. Our SPRACHCAFFE school sits in the leafy neighbourhood of Sachsenhausen, a ten minute walk from the old town. Teens stay in our centrally located residence with other international students, full board included. Your afternoons might take you to the top of the Main Tower, through the dinosaur halls of the Senckenberg Museum or into the tropical gardens of the Palmengarten.

Our German language camp in Munich brings you to the heart of Bavarian culture, a city famous for its markets, cafés and mountain views. Our school is in the lively district of Schwabing West, within walking distance of the English Garden and the city centre. In Munich, teens live with carefully selected host families who provide full board and daily cultural immersion beyond the classroom. Imagine visiting the Allianz Arena Football Museum, watching surfers ride the Eisbach wave or spending a whole day exploring the fairy tale towers of Neuschwanstein Castle.

Both cities offer weekly excursions, city tours and evening activities like karaoke, bowling and barbecues. We also organise a Welcome Party at the start of your stay so you can get to know your classmates from day one.

Communication is key

When you send your child to a German summer camp, you want to know they'll come back with real skills, not just a certificate. At SPRACHCAFFE, that progress starts in the classroom. Your teenager builds solid grammar foundations, expands their vocabulary step by step and practises all four skills: speaking, listening, reading and writing.

But the real breakthrough happens outside of class. Ordering lunch in German, chatting with their host family in Munich, exploring Frankfurt with classmates from ten different countries. 

Our teachers are qualified, experienced and trained to make lessons interactive and age appropriate. Small class sizes mean your teenager gets the attention they need, whether they arrive as a complete beginner or already speak some German. The Study Club, included at no extra cost, offers additional weekly sessions for homework support and revision.

 

Full German Immersion for Every Level

A German language holiday for young people goes far beyond the classroom. At SPRACHCAFFE, our immersion programme for teens wraps the language around everything you do - from breakfast conversations with your host family in Munich to treasure hunts through Frankfurt's old town.

Each week is packed with activities: in Frankfurt, expect visits to the Film Museum, minigolf, bowling and a full-day trip to the university town of Marburg; in Munich, you could find yourself at BMW World, exploring the Botanical Garden or watching the sunset over the Alps on an excursion day. At the heart of the experience are our Teamers - young adults aged 20 to 30, specially trained to guide and inspire teenagers.

They travel with you, run the activities and communicate exclusively in German, each looking after around 15 students so you always have someone close by who knows your name and your story. Teamers stay in the same accommodation, and students aged 17 and under follow a curfew and the full activity schedule, giving parents peace of mind from arrival to departure.

On your first Monday, a placement test puts you in the right group - every level from A0 to C1 is welcome, so no one is bored and no one is overwhelmed. Lessons cover speaking, listening, reading and writing through interactive role plays, group projects and real-world tasks, while the included Study Club adds four extra weekly sessions for homework help, revision or creative projects. For teens with bigger ambitions, exam preparation for the TELC certificate provides an officially recognised record of their German level.

Beyond the classroom, the international mix does the rest: when your dinner table includes someone from Brazil, Japan and Italy, German becomes the language everyone shares - and that is the SPRACHCAFFE difference.

Our trained Teamers are young adults aged 20 to 30, specially trained to guide and inspire teenagers. They travel with your child, run the activities and communicate exclusively in the language being taught. Each Teamer looks after around 15 students, so your teenager always has someone close by who knows their name and their story. Teamers stay in the same accommodation, and students aged 17 and under follow a curfew and the full activity schedule. Teen language travel to Germany with SPRACHCAFFE means professional supervision from arrival to departure.

You'll notice the difference when your teenager returns. They'll be more open, more independent and more comfortable in a language that once felt foreign.

Our German language camp for teenagers runs in two cities with different age ranges. In Frankfurt, we welcome participants from age 12. In Munich, the minimum age is 16. Both programmes accept students up to 21 and run during the summer holidays. Your child will be grouped with peers of a similar age and language level, so every participant feels comfortable and appropriately challenged.

Absolutely. Our junior German courses start at level A0, which means no previous knowledge of German is needed. On the first day, a placement test determines your child's level, and our teachers take it from there. Many of our students arrive without a single word of German and leave with the confidence to hold real conversations.

In Frankfurt, teens stay in our centrally located residence with shared ensuite bathrooms and full board, including a hot lunch. In Munich, students live with carefully selected host families who provide full board. Both options include breakfast, lunch and dinner every day. Special dietary requirements can be arranged at the time of booking. Just let us know when you register and we'll take care of the rest.

Every programme includes a mix of afternoon activities, evening events and excursions. In Frankfurt, highlights include the Main Tower, Senckenberg Museum and a full day trip to Marburg. In Munich, your teenager can look forward to BMW World, the Allianz Arena Museum and a day at Neuschwanstein Castle. The exact number of included excursions depends on the length of the stay. An intensive leisure programme is also available for even more adventure.
