We are located in the centre of Zürich, close to the Main Train Station Zürich HB. You will find us at Stampfenbachstrasse 32 on the 2nd floor in a protected historical building with no advertising allowed on the facade—that is why exact details of the classrooms are displayed on the ground floor monitor by the lift.

Each book includes interactive exercises, audio materials, and activities reflecting real-life communication in German-speaking environments.
In addition to textbooks, our supplementary resources (samples below) offer extra practice to reinforce lessons.

My personal experience at Eruditus has been really great. I believe the significant progress I have shown in German language in such a short time is due to the amazing teaching, all credit goes to my teacher Felicia.

In 4.5 months at Eruditus my German has improved exponentially—particularly my speaking skills! The small group setting ensures that we actually learn the material and get enough practice with meaningful feedback.
Marcelle Soares-Santos, Brazil
Felicia makes learning easy with a very interactive, practical, and fun approach. She puts her heart and soul into her work. I highly recommend this school and Felicia to anyone interested in mastering German. Great teacher, great price, great course, and an overall great learning experience!
Priyana, India
For me, German language is quite difficult, but with the lessons here, I am starting to understand the grammar. I like the class size, as it’s not too crowded, giving enough time for everyone. The location is also very convenient, near Zurich HB. The lessons are flexible—you can join online if you’re sick or unable to attend in person. I highly recommend this school.
Olga, Ukraine
Love this school. So happy that I went here—it was the best choice. I took several courses in the school from A1 to A2. I was lucky to make new friends there. My teacher is the best—she is caring, she pays attention to every student and all needs that students have. Her explanations of grammar are very easy and understandable!

This is the best language school ever. The classes are super dynamic and a two-hours-intensive class goes by fast while you learn in a productive way. But you not only learn a language, you also get to know people that are more or less in the same situation as you. The mood during the classes is excellent, thanks to a caring teacher that understands that you are not only a language student, but a foreigner.
Mayca de Castro, Argentina
Amazing teacher and school, and it also has a great cost/benefit. Already in the first month of the intensive course a new world revealed itself for me, I started to understand a bit more the spoken German and also feeling more confident to speak.
❤ I highly recommend.
Celina Jong, Brazil
I’m halfway through A2 German Course and loving every single class. My friends are amazed at how much I’ve come to enjoy the language recently. It’s all about having the right, motivated teacher. A million thanks to Felicia, who is an outstanding teacher. She knows exactly how to get you hooked!
Renata, Poland
It is a great school with friendly and helpful teachers, they are well trained and possess an amazing teaching spirit! They have small groups that allow all students to really get involved, focus and participate. The classes are very dynamic and well thought out. The homework really helps you reaffirm what you learned and prepare you for the next lesson.
Jess Sanson, United States
I've been taking private German classes with Felicia for 6 months now and she is one of the most dedicated, patient and supportive teachers I've ever seen. I never thought I'd say that I enjoy German classes, and that is mostly because of the Felicia and her way of teaching :)
Bianca, Romania
Eruditus Language School has made learning German for me less stressful and more fun with their approach. Very attentive to each student, making sure the whole group is on the same level and no one is left behind. Also a perfect location, few minutes away from Zurich Hauptbahnhof!
Laura Suliauskaite, Lithuania
I have now reached B1 level with Felicia, who is a great and enthusiastic teacher. The lessons are varied and interesting. I plan to stay with the school until I am fluent in German! I would highly recommend the school to all German-learners.
