Our Teaching Approach

Our lively and interactive teaching approach is adapted to the age, level, and specific needs of the students. We employ the ‘spiral learning’ method, where students have the chance to re-use and reinforce language they have previously learnt. Classes focus on developing students’ competence and boosting their confidence in the language.

Preparing for an exam should be more than just a cramming session. At HKIL we believe that efficient exam revision is an ongoing process that involves learning effectively and developing a solid foundation on which to build exam success.

Our exam revision courses are designed with this in mind. Their main focus is on developing students' overall competence and improving their study skills while refining their exam techniques and strategies.

Syllabuses are constantly revised, using the latest teaching materials and resources, so as to meet your child's needs and objectives.

We offer a variety of Exams Revision courses in German to suit all levels, needs, and objectives:
