The course will develop receptive and productive language skills through weekly classes which will focus respectively on written language, aural language and oral language. In addition students will complete a structured programme of self learning. The course consists of lectures on aspects of German grammar as well as two tutorials per week in which students practice their oral skils and tutorials in which students complete written German language work, which is supplemented by homework exercises.
