This compulsory language module for all students aiming for a qualification in German is designed for students with A-level in German or equivalent, or who have successfully completed GRMN105. The module is also open to students as an additional subject. Students will develop their competence in reading, writing, listening, speaking and grammar at a high B1 level in the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR), to prepare them for B2 level in the second year. Students will read a book in German and discuss it in the oral exam. Students will also improve their basic knowledge of German grammar further and have access to the languages lab for listening comprehension. They will continue practicing their mediating skills, such as summarising, translating and interpreting.
Students may benefit from extracurricular activities organised by a native speaker intern, the German Society and a conversation exchange organised through our Modern languages resource centre.
