Beginner Level 2

„Was trinken Sie?“

(What are you drinking?)

Imagine you’re in Germany, and you stop to have lunch at a café. When the waiter comes, you order what you’ve chosen from the menu. When you’ve finished your meal, you ask for the check, pay and give a tip. You do all of this in German. That’s what will be possible after taking this course! If you have travel plans to Europe, or will be joining your German-speaking partner to visit family, this course is for you.

You'll learn:

• How to order and pay in a café (including German tipping norms)

• To arrange to meet

• To talk about food

• To express your likes and dislikes

This course continues the introduction to the language and everyday culture of German-speaking countries. Join us to continue learning German in a supportive atmosphere to gain confidence speaking. You will expand your vocabulary and learn new grammar as well. The course is held via Zoom and a virtual classroom. Note: For this course a little bit of German knowledge is required — if you’re not sure if you’re at the right level, feel free to get in touch!

Office Hours:

Every Tuesday between 10:45am and 11:30am, we hold open office hours — this is a special time we’ve set aside just for students in the group courses! It’s a chance for you to drop in and get personalized support. Whether you have questions about course materials, need help with a homework exercise, are facing any challenges in the course, or simply want to say "Hallo," you’re welcome to stop by. Office hours are open for all students in the group courses, and it's a great opportunity to receive additional guidance in a relaxed, informal setting. Feel free to join at any time during these hours — no appointment necessary!
