German: Beginner 1, Part 1a - Evening
Join me for an introduction to the German Language. German and English are closely related. English speakers will quickly pick up a practical vocabulary base since the English language shares 26% of its vocabulary with German. The class will focus on speaking skills, pronunciation and basic grammar. Participants will learn and practice the language needed for greetings, introductions, travel, business, and family. The class is designed to be fun, interactive, and informative. Please obtain the text Learn German the Fast and Fun Way (Barrons, 4th Ed.). Instructor Sabine Dolo is a native of Germany and has taught German in the U.S. for over 10 years. She also teaches at the German School of CT.
