Hands-on lectures

Join us on a short language trip around the world!

We start in Denmark, where we get to know the Danish language and culture, and hop from Alpha to Omega across the Greek islands. After a detour to the far north, we will return to the south, where we learn Turkish through play. We will visit Rembrandt, Breugel and Co and wander through the Romance languages of Europe. After that we will fly to the language variations of South America and back. Then we will whizz off to Japan, where we get to know Japan in a playful way on the Shinkansen and try out hilarious tongue twisters. After a visit to the Arab world, we will finally return to America, where we will refine our English skills.
