Completing the Beginner Series

This 4-week course is for students who have completed the previous Beginner Levels and are ready to finish the A1 journey before moving into A2 in the fall.

We'll explore topics that bring German-speaking countries to life: travel, dream destinations, trip planning, and the festivals and celebrations that make summer in the German-speaking world special. One highlight is writing your own postcard in German to share with a fellow student.

Grammar and vocabulary are introduced with clear explanations and plenty of practice. Interactive activities and real-life scenarios help you build confidence in speaking and understanding German.

In our last session we'll practice the A1 speaking test together, so you can see how far you've come and feel prepared if you choose to take an official exam.

 

This course completes the Beginner Level course series to the language and everyday culture of German-speaking countries. The course is held via Zoom and a virtual classroom. If you have questions please get in touch or sign up for a free get-to-know-you-meeting. You can always join the first meeting for free to see if it's a good fit for you. Just write me an email.
