DID Cologne Junior

One of the world-class schools for German as a foreign language is DID Deutsch-Institut. The school was established in 1970, and such extensive experience helps to comply with the high standards of tuition. In 2020 the company will celebrate its 50th anniversary. DID has gained a worldwide reputation for its quality and professionalism. The school has received numerous awards and prizes. DID was the first German-language school to be awarded Super Star Award five times, granted by Study Travel Magazine. Recently, DID won the Award (Association of International Education Counselors in Turkey) for the best German summer school. The awards and recognition motivate and help to become even better.
The schools in all cities are systematically inspected by EAQUALS – the European Association for Quality Language Service. It is an indisputable fact that our schools come up to the highest European standards of education. Our schools are licensed Telc exam centres and TestDaF exam centres. DID Deutsch –Institute is a full member of FDSV, the Association of German Language School.
DID means Deutsch in Deutschland (German in Germany), and it is the motto since the establishment of the company. We believe that the best way for learning foreign languages is to live and study in a country where this language is native. You have a chance to be taught by native speakers. You can practice your language skills in everyday life and discover German culture. Learn German! Experience Germany!
