The course combines the study of foreign language with business skills, including Web publishing through the design and maintenance of a course web page. The course is based on common themes, and uses audio and visual materials. I also require several student presentations and group work. I teach almost exclusively in German with very specific writing and oral proficiency goals for each semester. I teach conversation courses exclusively in German.
Emphasis is on the more complicated grammar structures.
