German Language CoursesThinking of learning German? Well, there is no better place to learn a language than where it is spoken. What is more, you can combine a relaxing holiday with your learning experience with the surroundings of the Black Forest, Lake Constance, spas, and sojourns in night-lit cafés. These aren’t really some of the first things you think of when you consider enrolling for a language course in Germany. But in Baden-Württemberg these are just some of the surprises that await students and teachers of the German language. Some of Germany’s finest universities offer a range of summer courses with accompanying activities such as workshops and lectures. Whether you are a beginner, at intermediate or advanced level, or whether you are in the business world and wish to brush up your commercial language skills, why not combine studying with pleasure in the picturesque landscape of south-west Germany.Small groups are taught in classroom situations in the morning and students are offered a host of activities in the afternoon and evening, combining all aspects of German life: cultural insights such as modules on the German self-image and approach to life are coupled with cultural highlights such as boating on the river Rhine or walking trips in the Black Forest. What is more, the region’s vantage point in the centre of Europe is ideal for day-trips to France, Switzerland and Austria. Learning can be facilitated and intensified in CALL (Computer Assisted Language Learning) and language labs as well as through social contact and discussions with native speakers. Intermediate and advanced courses concentrate on topics as diverse as the Euro and its implications on the German economy, the future of information technology and cultural aspects such as theatre, film and entertainment in the country. Accommodation can be organised by the university in student rooms, often with shared kitchens, at reasonable prices and in central locations. |
