Our C1 German course is based on the “Common European Framework of Reference for Languages” and is taught by our experienced instructors in small groups (max. 18 participants) using innovative methods.
C1 level means that you can understand longer and more demanding texts. You can express yourself spontaneously and fluently in business and private life. You don’t have to search for words and you can use different phrases and express your opinion on complex matters in a structured and detailed manner.
The C1 Course in Germany we offer is a comprehensive course specifically designed to meet the needs of students who wish to prepare for the Telc C1 Hochschule exam. The course offers intensive exercises and practical guidance to improve language skills in the areas of reading, writing, listening and speaking. Through focused training, participants are prepared for the demands of the exam and learn to understand complex texts, express themselves in a clear and structured way and communicate appropriately in different situations. In addition, participants receive valuable tips and strategies to help them overcome their exam anxiety and boost their self-confidence.
C1 course in Germany from IISC
The С1 course is divided into C1.1 and C1.2 levels. The first level (C1.1) consists of 80 lessons and the second level (C1.2) consists of 100 lessons. The C1.2 level includes preparation for the final test, after which you will receive our internal certificate. Our internal test is also an ideal way to prepare for the telc exam. In total, the Course Intensive consists of 180 lessons and therefore lasts nine calendar weeks.
You can either register for the complete C1 course or for the C1.2 course (in this case you need to show us proof that you have completed C1.1 or take our placement test). If you register for the full course, you have the option of paying the course fees in two instalments.
This course takes place as a hybrid course. A hybrid course can be attended both online and in presence. You have the possibility to learn German together with other participants who attend the course face to face.
