Since the Middle Ages, Frankfurt-am-Main, which is located on the banks of the River Main, has been a crossroads for European trade and commerce, and the official venue for imperial coronations. At first sight, the city seems a bustling international metropolis. Thousands of travelers pass through its airport daily, one of Europe's busiest, yet Frankfurt is steeped in history, tradition, and the arts.

The city is home to beautiful cathedrals, art galleries and museums, many of which dot the river's banks. Frankfurt-am-Main also displays its own distinct style of contemporary and historical art and culture, ranging from antique sculptures to the Museum of Modern Art's semi-annual "Change of Scenery" exhibitions.

The center of Frankfurt can be reached by underground in about 10 minutes, or you can take a stroll across the bridge and walk to the center in less than 20 minutes. For our less active students, a taxi will take five minutes and cost you about 5-7 Euro.

The location of our German school is in Sachsenhausen - one of the most beautiful and elegant areas of Frankfurt located on the South bank of the Main river. The area offers many charming cafes, boutiques and a vibrancy found nowhere else in the city.

Our school is housed within a large, modern 13-storey building, on the 5th floor, with excellent facilities. The classrooms are all bright and have a view of either Sachsenhausen or towards the centre of the city and Europe's most famous skyline. The school's reception is on the ground floor (picture above) with a small terrace outside. The reception area also acts as a student social corner with snacks & coffee machines. The other school floors are reached by elevator.

19 Bright classrooms with great views

STUDENT FEEDBACK

"Everything was great.

There was no english spoken in the classes which was excellent for learning a new language. The staff were extremely accommodating and the teachers knew how to set an environment for people of all ages and learning styles.

Future Advice: Do it!"
