FOR WHOM IS OUR GERMAN FOR KIDS COURSE?
Children between 6 and 12 years
In our course of German for kids between 6 and 12, we use the method Planetino. This book is designed for teaching German to kids. It has a lot of images and interactive games, and so your child will love to learn German.
For the youngest children, between 6 and 9, we work with videos and songs designed specifically for use with children songs. The teacher will ask easy questions about the video to check the comprehension, and the child will learn new words in a visual way.
The grammar cannot be left aside, we introduce it in daily life examples and situations. The child won’t feel bored nor exhausted. We also play games like the Hangman or Memory, with German words, of course!
Young adults between 13 and 18
For the children up to 18 years old, we use the book Das neue Deutschmobil. Depending on the level of the student we select which chapters of the book we will work through (A1 to B1 are covered there).
The German teachers will adapt to the student, his level and his necessities. At every lesson, there will be a conversation with him based on everyday life situations to evaluate his progress and help him increase his speaking skills.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a lesson by Skype and a normal lesson?
The main difference between the classes of German for kids by Skype and the face to face ones is that they are cheaper. As for the rest, it’s almost the same. The teacher will focus on the child’s weaknesses in German and will try to improve them.
Is it useful to take this course if my child wants to prepare for an exam or test?
Yes, of course. We can help prepare your child for any examination. For example, we can prepare him to pass the GOETHE test which is a certification for one’s level of German recognized all over the world.
At what age should my child start to learn a new language?
The brain of a child has a tremendous capacity to learn and assimilate any kind of knowledge. Since before birth to approximately the age of 8 years, the human brain creates and interconnects billions of neurones. Experts say that this process culminates at the age of 5 when it reaches 80%, until the age of 6 when the brain is fully formed.
Our course of German for kids starts at the age of 6 precisely so that they can start learning German at the ideal age.
