Intermediate Level 4

„Leben mit Tieren & Stadtportrait: Frankfurt am Main"

(Life with Animals & City Portrait: Frankfurt am Main)

Whether you have a pet, enjoy going to the zoo, or just like being in nature, animals are all around! Through this course, we will use animals as a vehicle to learn and practice German. In the second half of the course, we will take a closer look at Frankfurt am Main. This modern German metropolis will be a jumping off point to discuss global and regional cultures. 

You'll learn to:

• Describe things using superlatives, and adjectives with the dative case

• Ask indirect questions about people, places, and things

• Talk about a city or region you have visited

• Report the regional dishes and specialties of a city

• Expand sentences using relative clauses effectively

Note - For this course the following is required:
