German for Improvers
German for Improvers
This German for Improvers group meets weekly on Mondays 2 – 3.30pm in Studio 3 at Chequer Mead Theatre. The emphasis is on speaking and listening skills practised through role play, pair work and audio clips. Grammar points are explored and practised in a fun way and new vocabulary will be constantly reviewed. Seasonal activities relating to, for example, Christmas, carnival time etc. will help raise cultural awareness and members will also be invited to share their experiences of German related interests and visits. Topics include home and neighbourhood, travel and transport and places in town.
The group has set up an email connection with an adult learners' English class in East Grinstead's German twin town Mindelheim. So far we have exchanged class profiles and seasonal information. This project raises cultural awareness and enables learners to read and translate simple texts in their target languages.
The convener is a qualified tutor of German with a long experience of teaching in Adult and Further Education and U3A settings.
Room hire costs are shared between group members in accordance with the U3A policy and there is a small charge to cover weekly handouts as there is no prescribed text book.
