Course format

Individual instruction via SKYPE – don’t limit your learning!

when you learn online, you will receive individual language training from your own private teacher. The term 'online learning' can either mean that you learn with your teacher on the telephone or that you speak to each other using Skype. Skype is a language program that enables you to telephone
whilst sitting at your computer and to write to your teachers and receive messages from them at the same time.
On Skype you will speak to your teacher whilst sitting at your computer, just as though you were on the phone. The only difference
is that your teacher can send you texts and exercises whilst continuing to speak with you. In this way you practice
- speaking,
- listening,
- reading
- and writing

You will also always have a written record of what was covered in the lesson. In addition, you can record the entire conversation using 'Pamela Recorder'. This allows you to listen to each lesson as often as you need to.

Course content

In individual instruction, it is you that determines the course content. You can work with a course book or use free material from a range of different sources. If you opt for free material, we can orientate the lessons entirely around your area of interest or field of work and will seek out relevant and appropriate texts and materials.
The exercises are constructed according to the subjects that interest you, the mistakes that you make and any areas that you would specifically like to improve. You will learn:

to react spontaneously
to speak more fluently
new vocabulary
to use your new vocabulary correctly
grammar – that must also be a part of it!
to improve your pronunciation
to improve your written expression

You will see how useful, practical and efficient it is to learn German using Skype.

General language course
The overriding aim of this course is to offer you certainty in your spoken German– pronunciation and listening comprehension will form a part of this, depending on your
particular linguistic goals. At the same time you will broaden and consolidate your vocabulary.

With this course it can be practical to work with a course book. You then have the option of continuing to learn with this book during an intensive course at the language institute if you wish to.
