세계 여행자를 위한 중급 독일어!

Class structure will build on students' prior knowledge of the learning the German language. If the student has learned some German during family interactions/travel or in my Beginning German for World Travelers class, they should be able to complete intermediate class assignments. (Please review my Beginning German class description to decide whether or not to enroll the student in intermediate or beginning German). Students will interact with each other by asking questions in German. I will teach using slides, screen shares for grammar/vocab practice and some games. My teaching style differs based on what student's learn best from (visual, auditory or kinetic). Topics such as current events and typical cultural differences may also be covered via video/newspaper clips. 
Topics covered will include:
Session 1: Review of beginning German basics: greetings, numbers, colors, weather, geography, pronouns, verbs and adjectives.
Session 2: Clothes, modal auxiliaries, pronunciation with emphasis on parts of the word.
Session 3: Simple past tense, types of homes/apartments in German-speaking countries, prepositions.
Session 4: Verbs for cleaning the house, freetime activities, common medical ailments.
Session 5: The German healthcare system, conjunctions, body parts.
Session 6: Verbs related to health and well-being, review of common occupations, labor laws in German-speaking countries.
