Our Projects

Raum in der Villa Verte in Oujda
Didactica is more than a language school. Because courses and days go by, but memories and experiences remain, we want to build bridges, connect worlds, make inter-culture tangible. That is why we keep getting big and small projects off the ground with artistic, educational, social or linguistic demands.
In 2011 we also founded an association for this purpose and since then, with the “Villa Verte”, we also have a house with a beautiful ambience, ideal for exquisite events, open to all interested parties. Many of our projects have attracted attention in our region, far outside, and far beyond, and have been a topic in the press and television. A small selection:
