About the Course
The A-level exam is an academic qualification that allows you to study certain subjects at universities. This exam is usually taken in year 13. Our bilingual students usually take the A-Level German exam in Year 12 so that it does not overlap with the regular A-Levels in Year 13. This exam is demanding and not only requires very good knowledge of German, but also knowledge of and pleasure in the literature and history of the German-speaking countries. We only recommend the exam if the students are suitably motivated. Our students usually take three years to complete the full A-level curriculum.
Students will have an additional A-level which is recognised as a language subject at English universities, as well as in universities in German speaking countries. The A-level is also recognised as proof of German language on B2-level.
This course will guide our students through the whole A-level curriculum and help them succeed with their A-level exam! For bilingual students only, all teaching will be in German.If your school doesn't offer A-level, this course is the perfect option for you to still successfully do a German A-level outside of school. We will even organise an exam centre for you!
This group is limited to 8 participants.
