GERMAN FOR TEENAGERS

This online German course is designed for young learners who need to improve their German skills with an individual teacher in one-to-one lessons. These sessions are aimed at young people aged 10 to 17. Lessons are live with a native German teacher and can be booked at any level from beginner to advanced. All skills can be trained, from reading and listening through to writing and speaking. German online lessons can help your child by:

• supporting them with the German they are learning at school
• maintaining or extending existing German knowledge
• providing guidance in written German for those who have grown up in a non-German speaking country with a German speaking parent. While their spoken German may be good, they may need support in writing
• showing them that German can be fun if they are currently reluctant to speak
• preparing them for a German exam

Let us know what your child needs. We will be happy to support and motivate them!

Procedure

So that both you and your child can get to know the online teacher, we would recommend booking our starter package of 1*45 minutes as a first step. Once you have registered online for this trial lessons, we will send you the teacher’s details and a placement test for older children. The test is voluntary, but it helps the teacher gain a first impression of your child’s knowledge of German. If your child is happy with the teacher and the first lesson, you can go on to book packages of 10, 20  or more lessons. Call us if you have any questions or go directly to the registration form to book the test lesson .

Course format

Live German lessons with your own private teacher

If your child learns German online, they will have live lessons face to face with a private teacher on days and at times that suit you/your child. Your child can see the teacher, the teacher will share the screen, they can write together, watch videos, listen to dialogues and read texts together. This form of training does not only guarantee flexibility in terms of location and time, but also gives your child the opportunity to focus on just the skills they need, e.g. speaking, reading, listening or writing.

Course content

The course content is individually adapted according to age and school year level. We can work with your child’s school textbooks, with standard DaF textbooks and our own material. Usually we opt for a combination. The selection of material is made after the first two lessons. For exam preparation courses, we use the usual textbooks with sample tests to familiarize your child with the exam format. In every lesson, we promote the development of oral and written language skills, so that your child learns to understand and use language in a way that is comprehensible and appropriate to the subject matter, the situation and their age group. read more / mehr lesen

These trainers know how to deal with young leaners. They will support them in learning German at school, preparing them for an exam, teaching them how to write in German or helping them become confident German speakers. Our younger language learners are animated and inspired by their professional instruction. Live instruction means they receive immediate  supportive feedback, driving them on and prompting them to look forward to their next German online session.
