​

We will not be having German School this year! 

Please check back in the summer for more information on 2024/2025 school year dates.

​

Typically our Deutsche Schule (German Language School) for Adults runs Saturday mornings starting mid-October and will go until mid-March the following year (perhaps longer depending on missed classes due to weather or other reasons). The school term consists of 20 classes, each class is one-and-a-half hours in length. The coming year we will only be offering an A1-1 beginner's class. The course costs $400 for the entire school year. Your school fees include registration, lessons and textbooks/materials (that's less than $20 a lesson!). Students will only be required to bring notepads, pens and pencils.

​

 

Classes will be held in-person at our club house. Please see the contact tab for location details.

​

Course descriptions:

• A1-1 course is for beginners with little to no knowledge of the German language. This course is ideal for those individuals who are looking to learn more about Germany as a whole as well as begin to speak and understand the German language. We will focus on the basics of German grammar and building conversation skills. A variety of topics covered include: alphabet and numbers, German culture and traditions, introductions and basic conversations, speaking about food and parts of the house.

 

Course materials:

A1-1 will continue to use the Schritte International Neu textbooks for the adult classes.

​

Class times are tentatively set for the following times. These will be confirmed closer to the beginning of the new school year. 

​

A1-1: TBD

​

 

We would hope and encourage that students and families of students will join our German Club, but it is not mandatory.

 

A few school rules to consider and remember:

- Preregistered students only

- Respect the teachers and other students at all times

- Be on time for classes

- No smoking or smoke break during class

- No cell phones or other electronic devices are to be used during class time (unless it is for note-taking purposes.

- Students are required to catch up on missed classes prior to the next class so as not to impede the other students.

​

 

Please note that we require a minimum of 4 students to run the class. If the minimum number is not met, the course will be canceled and the school fees will be returned within a timely fashion. Thank you for your understanding.
