Communicating in German — Workplace and Daily-Life Conversations (level A2/B1)

Do you already have a basic knowledge of German and would now like to improve your communication skills? Are you interested in socialising and exchanging ideas with colleagues from Leibniz Universität Hannover?

In this event you can improve your German for different situations at work and in your free time. You will talk to each other in German about everyday topics, clarify the necessary vocabulary and, if necessary, repeat grammatical structures.

Main topics:

• communicating in everyday situations (e.g. at work, at the doctor's, when looking for a flat, if something is broken in the flat, etc.)
• making phone calls (e.g. making/cancelling appointments, making reservations in a restaurant/hotel, complaining/reacting to complaints, making small talk on the phone, etc.)
• discuss various topics (e.g. current news, regional studies, intercultural issues)
• other topics as required by the participants

The course is a year-round event. New participants are welcome to join at any time upon request.
