Communicate effectively with parents, children, and colleagues

Communicateion in pedagogy

E-learning vocational language course with tutorial support: For educational professionals


This measure is aimed at people who want to specifically strengthen their linguistic and communicative skills for everyday teaching practice – especially after a period of interruption, due to migration, family time or career reorientation.

Many participants experience linguistic uncertainties in their everyday work as educators – for example, when communicating with parents, in teamwork, or when interacting with children. This course offers targeted support: through practical content, everyday vocabulary, and concrete conversation examples, it creates a secure framework for consciously using language as a professional tool.

The goal is to reflect on one's own communication behavior, expand expression options and gain more confidence in dealing with challenging situations – both verbal and nonverbal.


Through learning videos, tutorial support, interactive exercises and an accompanying book, participants consolidate their expressive abilities and thus strengthen their professional competence.


This measure creates a solid foundation for safe, respectful communication in the educational environment – and supports both integration into everyday professional life and personal development.
