Synopsis

Designed for those with no previous knowledge of the language, this intensive course in German is lively, fast-paced, and provides students with a wide range of activities, taking them from beginner to intermediate level in one year. Varied and rewarding, it is ideally suited to those students following a German language programme either as a specialist route, or as part of an institution-wide language programme designed for non-specialists. Carefully structured and easy to follow, each chapter contains: initial details of the themes and grammatical structures to be covered; a 'Language Focus' section, with explanation of grammatical structures; and a 'Language in Use' section, with exercises to test knowledge of the work covered in 'Language Focus'. Providing an original and distinctive approach to language learning, the course also incorporates a basic grounding in German politics, society and current issues, allowing students to develop a sound understanding of German culture. To perfect listening and pronunciation skills, audio materials are presented on accompanying CDs, and guidance for tutors, as well as links to related sites.
