LEARN GERMAN
ACT GLOBAL | FEEL LOCAL
SPEAK & SUCCEED
Sprechen Sie Deutsch?
Are you new in Germany and feeling a bit “out of it”? Would you like to be able to integrate, even if you are maybe only here for a limited time?
We will help you to learn the German you need to be able to actively participate in daily life – be that asking for something in a shop, arranging appointments at the doctor or hairdresser, chatting with a parent at the playground, interacting with your child’s teacher, or ordering in a restaurant.
A little goes a long way towards feeling at home – being able to interact with the locals in their language will open many doors and make communication easier, even if you do end up reverting to English when it gets complicated.
Speak & Succeed German classes are held during the day and focus mostly on spoken “survival German” and on being able to recognise key words in shops etc. We do not focus on written German or on mastering grammar to perfection.

FAQ
Who is this course for?
This course is for parents who would like to start learning German, who would like to understand and speak enough to be able to master everyday situations.
Making appointments, arranging a play date, making small talk or “refereeing” at the playground, surviving a play date with a German child in your home, talking to a doctor’s receptionist, buying meat, cheese and fish over the counter, and other typical “family life” situations.
Will the course prepare me for an exam?
No! Our courses prepare you for real life situations, so we focus on spoken German.
We do of course also read relevant texts, and homework (yes, there will be some – practice makes perfect!) will sometimes be written exercises, but we feel that life is tough enough without worrying about exam grades.
The real test is whether you feel that you are improving. Whether you feel confident speaking to Germans.
As your confidence grows, and you build your knowledge of the language, you will be able to grade yourself, and award yourself top marks every time you survive a new situation!
Is the course only for beginners?
The courses we currently run are aimed at complete beginners, but do get in touch if you already know some German but like the sound of learning exactly what you need.
We may be able to arrange a course to suit you.
Do you also offer 1-2-1 teaching?
While we feel that group courses offer the additional benefit of being able to learn from the other students, and of expanding your network in your new home country, we can also arrange one-to-one lessons.
Please contact us for more information.
GERMAN BOOSTER
Sprechen Sie Deutsch?
Are you learning German? Are you taking a German course at a local Volkshochschule (VHS)? Do you feel that you would benefit from some extra practice and the opportunity to ask questions in a smaller group, focussing specifically on what you are struggling with?

We designed this course with you in mind! We want to help you master German by boosting the progess you are making at your German class.
