German Beginners level 2

German Beginners level 2

Your Course
This 10 week course will suit beginners who have already studied German for approximately one term. The course is based on a communicative approach and aims to develop the skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing in the foreign language. It aims to enable students to understand and use German effectively for purposes of practical communication, to develop some understanding of grammar and to offer insights into the culture of German speaking countries.
This course feeds into Beginners level 3 in the summer term 2010.
During this course students will take short internal assessments in speaking and writing German at beginners' level. These will help to prepare them for the OCR Asset Language test that will be taken at the end of the first year of study.
The course book is 'Deutsch Plus 1' (BBC)

By the end of the 10 week course you will have been given the opportunity to:
· Listen to and read a variety of texts and materials.
· Improve your spoken language.
· Learn new points of grammar, including the present tense, use of adjectives, negative sentences, prepositions, articles and the comparative.
