Free German courses at SLA Basel
Are you new to Basel and have realised that good German skills are essential in your private and professional life? Then you should not miss out on the opportunity to attend free German courses so that you can find a home in Basel where you can easily find your way around linguistically.
Because those who can get by linguistically can also get by mentally and make the whole world their home. Therefore, it is a great opportunity for newcomers that the Canton of Basel-City promotes free German courses for newly arrived residents. It is a unique opportunity, and those eligible are adult migrants who are in their first year of residence in Switzerland and hold a B residence permit.
At SLA Basel , your individual language school in Basel, we offer free German courses as part of this funding for migrants who meet these criteria. For this, all we need from you is the free voucher that you received from the Canton of Basel-Stadt. This opens up opportunities for you that will leave a lasting impression on your entire life in Basel.
As part of these free German courses with a voucher, professional teachers who specialise in the field of German as a foreign language are available to you. These are therefore German teachers who are trained for people whose native language is not German.
Anyone who presents this German course voucher to us has the right to take part in a free German course consisting of 80 lessons, and the best part is that you can attend German courses at four different language levels, namely A1, A2, B1 and B2. So anyone who is new to Basel and has prior knowledge of German can, after a Placement test attend the German course at the correct learning level.
Free German courses at various learning paces
On the other hand, you have free German courses with us at various learning paces. The German evening class at the normal learning pace takes place four days a week from 18:30 to 20:00 and lasts 20 weeks.
Whoever gets a Semi-intensive German course wishes, can attend a German course three days a week and at various times. This German course lasts 13 weeks.
The Intensive German course at SLA Basel takes place, on the other hand, five days a week at different times and the course duration is eight weeks this time. Finally, you can also sign up for a Super-intensive German course with voucher decide, which also takes place five days a week. This German course begins at 9:00 am and lasts until 12:15 pm. The total duration of the course is four weeks.
Learning German in small groups
This is group tuition and we start the group courses with as few as 2 participants. Each group can have a maximum of 6 course participants. These language courses normally cost 1185 Swiss francs and are free of charge with the voucher from the Canton of Basel-Stadt.
Since we as SLA Basel working in small groups, you must keep two things in mind: this gives our German teachers the opportunity to offer individual attention and means that any questions can be cleared up more quickly. On the other hand, you have to hurry and secure a place, as a group can fill up very quickly.
