Lina Kühn - Head of Education
As a trained education professional who holds the German title Studienrätin, Lina Kühn ensures that instructors use age-appropriate teaching methods, address students in ways that suit their developmental stage and take their actual capabilities into account. The respective subject instructors also carry responsibility for subject decisions and the concrete design of their lessons.
Warm, human guidance is central to the way students learn new content. They should feel that their questions and uncertainties are taken seriously and that they can learn within a dependable setting that combines academic expectations with personal care.
Steffen Kühn - Commercial Director
Steffen Kühn is responsible for the commercial and organisational foundation of Die Schulalternative. A reliable framework allows teachers and students to focus on their shared learning process.
This includes a clear weekly rhythm, dedicated contacts and an online school model accessible to families in Germany and around the world.
Subject teachers with professional industry experience
The subject teachers at Die Schulalternative come from professional industry backgrounds. They bring subject-specific expertise from their respective fields and strong AI expertise into their classes.
This professional experience helps them connect academic foundations with understandable practical applications. AI is not used as a substitute for knowledge, but as a tool whose output is examined critically and placed in its proper subject context.
What Die Schulalternative stands for
Die Schulalternative is designed for students aged 10 to 18. Its learning stages broadly correspond to German Gymnasium grades 5 to 12. Twelve live lessons per week, small groups and dedicated subject teachers combine orientation with room for independent learning paths.
Artificial intelligence is neither ignored nor used as a shortcut to finished answers. Students learn to use AI purposefully, verify claims, compare sources and justify decisions of their own.
