Students speak and read using a full range of verb tenses and a wide variety of structures and vocabulary.
Oral skills remain the focus.
Students address subjects that are important to them, articulate opinions, and engage in discussions of texts, both orally and in writing, and create original compositions at their level, geared to their own interests. They are exposed to first-language speakers and cultural events. The aim of this course is communication in German. You will further improve your skills at understanding spoken German and speaking it, as well as reading and writing. When you have successfully completed the course, you will be able to greet strangers and friends, describe people and yourself, talk about your plans, work, likes and dislikes, feelings and opinions, past, present and future events, ask searching questions, and function in many other complex interactive situations.
