See what our students say about our German lessons

I would highly recommend the German academic modules [...] to anyone, to either start learning German or for those who just want to continue improving their German skills. As someone who wants to do a year abroad, I’m finding the weekly seminar sessions involving speaking, grammar, and translation very useful for helping me to practise for when I want to live in Germany.

Oliver, Maths, Advanced German

…I’ve experienced learning German and progressing through the modules with different professors and they’ve all been really helpful and understanding.
