German at Georgianum

Reading, writing, speaking plainly

German lessons are about much more than just grammar and spelling. They provide the basis for expressing yourself clearly – in everyday life, in other subjects and in your future career.

We learn how to:

  • Understand and analyse texts: from novels and poems to newspaper articles.
  • Write creatively: invent our own stories and write poems.
  • Argue clearly: form our own opinions and present them in a reasoned manner.
  • Communicate confidently: whether in a group, in front of the class or in a conversation.

In short: German lessons help us to strengthen our language skills and discover the world of literature.
