Description

The language course “German A2” is suitable for students with basic prior knowledge who have successfully completed the A1 course with a certificate of achievement or have scored at least 49 points in the placement test.

Course Content

Complete level A2 in four weeks and continue with B1.1 in the Spring Semester 2027.

In this course, the basic knowledge of German grammar and vocabulary acquired in the A1 beginner's course will be expanded through everyday conversation topics and situations.

You will learn, for example, how to discuss advantages and disadvantages, talk about films, write a comment, discuss a song, make telephone calls, or describe statistics.

A language course thrives on interaction between people. It is therefore particularly important that you participate actively and regularly and come to class well prepared. The language of instruction is German.

This is a full-time course. You should plan to dedicate approximately 35 hours per week to the German course during these four weeks.
