Description

This Samstagsschule program is for kids ages 7 to 11 with little or no prior exposure to German will acquire basic communication skills and vocabulary related to everyday life. The emphasis of our Samstagsschule programs for kids is the natural acquisition of language in an interactive, fun, and age-appropriate environment. German learners will build on their skills and deepen their understanding of the German language and Germanic cultures.

Language Requirement(s):

We offer two "level" tracks:

On the first day of Samstagsschule, students will be evaluated (short German discussion with teacher/peers) to get an idea of their German ability. From there (if there are enough participants), we will split the class into the following sections/levels:

 

1. Learners of German: Little to no exposure to German. Complete beginners and intermediate German learners are welcome!

2. Current Speakers of German: Extensive exposure through an extended stay in a German-speaking country, a German-speaking parent, or attendance of a German immersion school. This is a full immersion program for children who can already understand and communicate in German.
