How Does an Online German Course Work? Everything You Should Know Before Your Course Begins

Why Are More and More People Choosing an Online German Course?

Over the past few years, online learning has become a well-established alternative to traditional classroom instruction.

Many people want to learn German without being tied to a specific location. Others need a flexible solution that fits around work, family, or university.

A modern online German course offers the same learning objectives as a classroom course—but with much greater flexibility.

What really matters is not where you learn, but how you learn.


How Does an Online German Course Work?

Many people imagine online learning as watching videos alone or completing exercises independently.

However, professional online German courses work very differently.

Classes are conducted live.

All participants meet at scheduled times in a virtual classroom and learn together with a qualified German teacher.

During the lesson, you can:

  • Ask questions at any time

  • Complete exercises together

  • Participate in discussions

  • Work in pairs or small groups

  • Receive immediate feedback

  • Have your pronunciation corrected

This creates a learning experience that is very similar to a face-to-face classroom.


What Does a Typical Online Lesson Look Like?

An online German course follows a clear and structured learning plan.

Depending on your language level, a lesson may include:

  • Review of previous lessons

  • Introduction to new grammar topics

  • Vocabulary practice

  • Listening comprehension

  • Reading comprehension

  • Pair or group activities

  • Speaking practice

  • Questions and feedback

The variety of activities keeps every lesson interactive and engaging.


What Equipment Do I Need?

Joining an online German course is simple.

You only need:

  • A stable internet connection

  • A computer, laptop, or tablet

  • A webcam and microphone

  • A quiet place to study

Before your course begins, you will receive all the necessary information as well as access to the virtual classroom.


How Are AKAZA's Online German Courses Structured?

Our Online German Courses follow the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) and are available from A1 to C1.

Like our classroom courses, each language level is divided into two sections, for example:

  • A1.1 and A1.2

  • A2.1 and A2.2

  • B1.1 and B1.2

  • B2.1 and B2.2

Depending on the course type, each course includes 30 to 70 teaching units and usually lasts between two and six weeks.

Lessons are conducted live, in small groups, and are taught by qualified German as a Foreign Language (DaF) instructors.


Who Is an Online German Course Suitable For?

Online German courses are ideal for anyone who wants to learn flexibly.

They are especially suitable for:

  • International learners living outside Leipzig or Hannover

  • Working professionals with changing work schedules

  • Parents balancing family life and further education

  • People who are still living abroad

  • Learners who want to study German regardless of their location

One of the biggest advantages is that you can attend classes from anywhere in the world.


Personal Support – Even Online

Many people wonder whether online learning can be as personal as classroom teaching.

The answer is yes.

Even in our online courses, we deliberately work with small groups.

This allows plenty of time for:

  • Individual questions

  • Personal feedback

  • Active conversations

  • Targeted support

At AKAZA, online learning does not mean learning alone—it means learning together with professional guidance and real interaction.


Our Teachers

All our online courses are taught exclusively by qualified instructors with an academic background in German as a Foreign Language (DaF) or an equivalent qualification.

In addition to professional expertise, we place great importance on:

  • Well-structured lessons

  • Interactive teaching methods

  • Clear explanations

  • Practical communication skills

This ensures that every participant enjoys a professional and supportive learning environment—even online.


How Quickly Will I Make Progress?

Learning speed varies from person to person.

Your progress depends on several factors, including:

  • Your current language level

  • Regular attendance

  • Your personal learning intensity

  • Practice outside the classroom

At the end of each course section, your progress is assessed.

If you have not yet reached the required level, you can repeat the course to strengthen your language skills.
