German Language School of Marin!

Founded in 1967, The German Language School of Marin in Novato, California, is a Saturday morning German language school committed to furthering the study and use of the German language. We provide students with better access to the customs, history, and culture of German-speaking countries. Our German classes are available not only for families with children, but also for adults interested in learning German. We invite you to browse our website and contact us with any questions about our school and programs!
