German uses the same 26 letters as English, with the addition of three vowels with 'Umlaut's (ä, ö and ü) and ß, ('Eszett' or 'sharp s').

German 1 to 1 Business

These courses in German are meant for those that feel that learning German would make a change in their work. For starters, it is expedient to learn how to say hello/goodbye, as well as basic business protocol; once the basics have been mastered, reading and writing come to the fore. Students who have greatly benefitted have been involved in import/export, international negotiations and acquisitions, jobseekers in multinational companies where another language is required, and those working in the international academia and government circuits. Even on our most fundamental beginner's course, students can anticipate ending the course with basic telephone German and e-mail German skills for communicating, as well as survival German if a short visit to the country is needed.

German 1 to 1 General

These German lessons fit a broader spectrum, and can be useful for those who need different things from the language. Most beginner students will have a handle of survival German by the end of their course, which will provide them without enough German to communicate at least at a basic level during short trips to the country, but those who require more would benefit greatly from these sessions. Typical students have been those eager to travel all over the world, those buying overseas property, those with foreign spouses, aficionados of German culture and those who just wish to pass a particular German exam.

German Testimonials

"When I started my German classes I just couldn't get used to speaking it because of the different accent. But my tutor was really patient with me and after a month or so I started to get a taste for it. I'm really happy with my improvement and can't wait to learn more!"
