In our German classes, all aspects of language will be covered: reading, writing, speaking and listening.

Classes are taught in German. Students will be integrated in the ongoing language courses for international students.

Class times: Monday to Friday, 9 am until 12:50 pm.

Please note, that the required German Language proficiency is A2 (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages)

In this course students will have the chance to practice and enhance their previously acquired German skills. The course will focus on the topic of Germany Today and work with current German literature, newspapers, movies, music, and other media to give students an opportunity to practice:

  • Their speaking skills by discussing topics in class and do presentations.
