23rd International Summer Academy Sans Souci 2021 | ISAS
About
The International Summer Academy Sans Souci is a combination of an intensive language course and subject-specific courses. One part of the programme focuses on learning German as a foreign language, including practical phonetics. The other part of the weekly programme includes a seminar and a project of your individual choice.
Within four weeks, you have the opportunity to not only deepen your German language and pronunciation skills but also to augment your knowledge of German history and culture, whilst at the same time broadening your vocabulary.
After one month in the “Sans Souci†programme, you will return home with "a suitcase full of memories" of experiences, impressions, and new people. Above all, you will know about your own personal developments.
