About the Course
The A-level exam is an academic qualification that allows you to study certain subjects at universities. It is a demanding exam and not only requires very good knowledge of German, but also knowledge of and a keen interest 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 2-3 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! Teaching will be in English.
Included in the course are individual speaking sessions (2 students per session) each week (40 min.)!
Students need to have done a German GCSE exam (any grade) to join this course.
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.
