Sprachkultur Magdeburg

Flexible format

Innovation and flexibility are important to us. We have created formats that give our customers plenty of room for their own design options in order to be able to conduct a language course that is tailor-made in every respect. This applies to both the content concept and the organizational framework. This allows us to offer high-quality and individually tailored courses in both face-to-face and online formats.


Locally ambitious

Sprachkultur Magdeburg is a local company with an international flair. Our team consists of employees from all over the English-speaking world who have found a new home in the city on the Elbe. We all believe that Magdeburg is a great city and we are excited about its growth opportunities. The more successful local companies there are, the better off Magdeburg will be as a business location. We have dedicated ourselves to this goal.


Culturally oriented

Language is culture. Since many of our teachers come from different countries, we are able to convey a wide range of cultural characteristics, which not only serves the later practical application in the country, but also creates a pleasant and entertaining learning atmosphere. Our edutainment approach includes learning formats such as the "Pubtalk", the "Reading Club" or the "Magdeburg Festival of English", but also language trips to English-speaking countries.
