We will read and translate Warten bis der Frieden kommt, a paperback by Judith Kerr. We will probably be part way through chap 1, and I will email everyone with the exact starting place. We will read it slowly, analysing one or two sentences each week to explain the grammar, and I will correct pronunciation where necessary. We will sometimes use Alles Klar by Paul Rogers and Jeremy Long - it is out of print, but available online, if you can source a cheap copy.
The story is based on Judith Kerr's life and is episodic, so lends itself to being read slowly in class without losing the plot. The course is aimed at people with approximately German O Level standard, and would be good for anyone wanting to brush up rusty German. Newcomers are welcome.
Note: We will continue to wear masks in my classes, and keep windows open, to protect vulnerable people from Covid.
