FOR FAMILIES IN GERMANY

Online education for families choosing a different way to learn

Not every young person learns well at the same pace, in large groups or under constant time pressure. Die Schulalternative also welcomes families in Germany who are looking for personal, future-ready education with responsible AI literacy.

A reliable online learning environment

Location-independent learning requires more than a screen. It needs people, structure and a recurring rhythm. Our classes therefore take place live and are guided by dedicated subject teachers.

Twelve weekly lessons of 45 minutes, beginning after 1 p.m. Central European Time, create a clear framework while leaving room for movement, projects and experiences away from the screen.

Less uniformity, more independence

We focus on essential foundations and the ability to apply knowledge. Students learn to recognise connections, ask questions and explain their own route to a solution.

Digital tools and AI are used where they support learning. Their answers are examined, compared and discussed rather than accepted automatically.

Industry expertise with educational guidance

Our subject teachers come from professional industry backgrounds and bring subject-specific expertise as well as strong AI expertise into their classes. This connects academic foundations with practical knowledge and a thoughtful use of modern tools.

Educational leadership is provided by Lina Kühn. As a trained education professional who holds the German title Studienrätin, she ensures that teaching methods, communication and expectations reflect each student's developmental stage and actual capabilities.

For different lives and learning needs

Some families want smaller groups, others seek location independence, greater linguistic internationality or a more thoughtful relationship with technology.

The goal is not one template for everyone, but a reliable learning space where each young person is seen as an individual.
