An amazing volunteer experience
At Englischhausen we create an English-speaking village in Germany where German professionals are able to live alongside diverse native English-speakers ("Anglos") to improve their English listening, understanding and conversational proficiency.

In each of our six-day courses we sponsor a group of native English-speakers (from Australia, Canada, England, Ireland, Scotland, USA, etc) to "populate" our hotel resort and provide conversation in English, through a diverse schedule of daily activities.  The "Anglo" participants gain a fascinating insight into modern German life and culture, whilst enjoying great food, excellent accommodation and a wonderful setting in the German countryside.  If you've already been to Pueblo Ingles in Spain then this could be an exciting opportunity to see a different part of the world.  And the great thing is that even though you will be participating in something fresh and new, you can also be 100% confident in our program; after hosting over 1000 courses, with over 40,000 volunteers in Spain,  we can really guarantee you the experience of a lifetime!


Our promises to you
 - the provision of high quality accommodation for the duration of the course.
 - a unique and fascinating insight into the lives and culture of modern German people.
 - the provision of all meals including buffet breakfasts, and 3-course lunches and dinners.
 - drinks with your meals.
 - a chance to share knowledge with others on a topic that is dear to you.  It could be anything 
   from a presentation about sailing, branding or Tai Chi, or an account of a cool personal experience.
 - a unique travel experience that represents an exciting alternative to typical formulaic holidays.
 - the opportunity to meet a diverse group of individuals from around the world, from different 
   professionalbackgrounds and interesting walks of life, and to form real friendships.
 - the satisfaction of knowing that your contribution on the program will have had a positive impact on the lives of many of the participants.
 - what many people have described as a "life-changing experience".
 

Your commitments to the program
 - to never utter a word of German.
 - to be prepared to forget classroom teaching and talk, talk, talk in your own "raw", natural and authentic 
   style of English.
 - to be patient and supportive to all the German students.
 - to be sensible and responsible in your free time to maximise course effectiveness and group enjoyment.   
 - to arrange and finance your trip to either Berlin, Frankfurt or Munich (depending on programme-venue), and your accommodation before and after the program.
 - to be punctual from the bus-departure right through to the final day of the course.
 - to be as flexible and try and contribute to the group well-being as much as possible during the week.
 - Again, to never utter a word of German!!!
