With Wortland you can learn the five most important languages - English, German, French, Italian and Spanish – quickly, effectively and cost-efficiently – with BLENDED-LEARNING!
BLENDED-LEARNING means combining online learning activities (vocabulary training, grammar exercises and listening comprehension) with classroom and/or virtual classroom training provided by experienced trainers. These activities will respond to your individual needs, give you valuable tips and, above all, help you to improve your oral language skills. In exchange with the teacher – and in the group course with your classmates – you stay motivated and focused.
With BLENDED-LEARNING you benefit from the advantages of both forms of learning in an ideal way. One benefit is you determine what you want to practice online on your PC, tablet or smartphone, regardless of place and time. Another benefit is having the assistance from a professional, personal coach who will provide individual support so that you can speak the new language safely and correctly from the beginning and reach your specific goals (eg. specific technical language skills or exams).

Your brain „likes it“ when you frequently work on small 15-20 minute learning sessions instead of spending one or two hours learning a language only once a week or even once a month. With the online tools you are able to improve your foreign language skills on a business trip or while traveling on public transport. Thus, you can learn efficiently even with limited time or budget and still be able to reach your goal!
With BLENDED-LEARNING you can also refresh and improve your current language skills.
