This course is for students who have taken my German 101 Semester course or have equivalent language skills. I am happy to arrange for an assessment if you believe your learner may qualify for this class but has not taken my previous course. In this class, students will will build on the concepts learned in my German 101. This is a self-paced Flex class, so there are no live meetings and students can view the videos on their own schedule! This course offers highly interactive learner-to-learner and educator-to-learner engagement and at the end of the course the students always enjoy having made new friends. I use “I have, who has?” (Ich habe, wer hat?)  and "I love, who loves?" (Ich liebe/Wer liebt?) games to foster interaction and fun in the classroom and practice vocabulary and pronunciation skills. 

Like all my courses, this class we will lean heavily on the natural language immersion model. Students will have a lot of fun learning a wide range of basic German vocabulary and phrases.  They will also study important cultural, geographical and historical concepts related to Germany and the German language. I will use college level materials scaled down to my Outschool students' age and have seen this to be highly successful to prepare students for the future. 

Auf Wiedersehen!

GERMAN 1- COURSE OUTLINE 

🌟 Willkommen zum Unterricht! (Welcome to our class)

🤓 This German language class series is taught by a native German speaker and college professor who has taught all ages from 0-70 

💻 Each week, a new lesson will be released which will include:
-A prerecorded video lesson by the teacher.
-A project assignment which may include a short video, a drawing, or a photo collage (all due on different weeks)
-A list with 10 new vocabulary words, worksheets and an interactive online vocabulary assignment.   
-On top of the class video there may be 1-2 short (10 second) videos of me saying basic phrases such as the day of the week. Each student will be asked to record and post videos to the class page of themselves duplicating these short videos showing their ability to say the words and phrases. In this way students can interact with each other and learn together through their videos clips. I will extensively respond to each students videos and work with much encouragement and when needed correction. My feedback is always positive and uplifting. Students are also encouraged (just like in college later on) to comment on their fellow students' work with positive affirmations and emojis to cheer each other on! 
Once students have watched the video of the week, they will be expected to fill out a provided worksheet each week and upload a picture to the classroom, as well as post a video of themselves speaking. 

Note: Since this is an interactive flex course, students will have the opportunity to send in videos for some of the assignments. It is not required to record their faces, only their voices.
