Sprachinstitut Treffpunkt's history

1995 Sprachinstitut Treffpunkt – German courses in Bamberg

In 1995 Sprachinstitut Treffpunkt was founded in Bamberg as an independently operating private language school and is now a leading supplier for „German as a foreign language“ courses in Germany. A language institute for enthusiastic learners from Bamberg and all over the world, we offer a professional language programme complemented by cultural leisure activities and a 'get-in contact' programme, including the ever-popular weekly „Stammtisch“ and a language tandem scheme.

2005 Sprachinstitut Treffpunkt – English courses in Bamberg

Sprachinstitut Treffpunkt has offered English courses in Bamberg since 2005. Both companies and private individuals have taken advantage of the language courses on offer, either at classes in the historic school building in the town centre or through in-house training at their workplace. The professional teaching by qualified native speakers has already convinced many Bambergers: Small groups with a maximum of four students really allow everybody the chance to speak. Studying on a one-to-one basis with a private teacher in intensive sessions has also proved particularly popular.

2008 Learn languages via internet – Treffpunkt online

13 years after the institute was founded, a new form of learning was established: Treffpunkt Online-learning - at that time quite revolutionary for Germany! An international automotive supplier joined us in the initial experiment and we now teach German from Alaska to Japan and English in all German speaking countries in Europe. Adults, teenagers and children learn with us to help prepare themselves for different reasons – their work, daily life, school or an official exam. Others do it simply to have fun and improve their command of the language at the same time.

2010 Treffpunkt Home Tuition

Another addition to the school’s portfolio is the Home Tuition programme: living with the teacher and learning with them on a one-to-one basis, not only in lessons but also during activities and meals together. German from sunup to sundown.

2016 Sprachinstitut Treffpunkt becomes Sprachinstitut Treffpunkt Bamberg and Sprachinstitut Treffpunkt Online

Sprachinstitut Treffpunkt has expanded, resulting in a reorganisation in 2016. Kristina has taken over the school in Bamberg and founded „Sprachinstitut Treffpunkt Bamberg“, which offers both German and English courses. The original founder, Alexandra, has established „Language Institute Treffpunkt Online“ and continues to develop the online and home tuition programmes. This new organisation of manpower has created a customer-friendly range of courses including classroom teaching, online and home tuition.

2025 Sprachinstitut Treffpunkt opens its own examination center

A dedicated examination center for the language institute Treffpunkt: the advantages are obvious. An examination center offers more space and, above all, more peace and quiet. In 2025, the language institute Treffpunkt opened a second location at Obere Königstraße 40. It is within walking distance of the main location and completely barrier-free.
