  • Description:

    You need a reasonable working level of German for this class - roughly A level. We read a sentence each (with help with pronunciation if appropriate) and translate into English. It is a fun way to brush up rusty language, get to grips with varying sentence structures and expand vocabulary. We will start 'Glennkill' by Leonie Swann, a modern, well-written, quirky 'Schafskrimi' - the band of sheep have characters all their own, and the cleverest is Miss Maple. We will also watch 5-10 min of a film from time to time - Prima Plus.

  • Format: Taught course or activity
  • Level: Level: Roughly A Level, rusty would be fine.

  • Tutor: Jill Tatham
  • I have taught German for many years and especially love reading and translation.
