Our Language Courses at the Language Centre
At the Saarland University Language Centre, you can acquire or improve your skills in more than 15 languages. As a central institution, we do not belong to any single faculty but are available to all members of the Saarland University community equally. This means that staff, students, and guest students can all participate in our language courses. For university employees, we offer special staff courses. Students at schools in the Saarland in grade 9 and above can take part in our youth courses.

What our language course participants are saying…
- “I love the Portuguese course. The teachers are very dedicated, and the lessons are highly interactive. As well as learning the language, I'm also learning a great deal about the cultures of Brazil and Portugal. I'm already looking forward to next semester.” Roberto (course participant)
- "I really enjoyed the English course, and even though it involved a lot of work, I was able to learn an incredible amount. The close collaboration with the other students also led to strong friendships, which made the course even more enriching." Kira (course participant)
