Overview

With this interactive online course you will quickly build on your basic knowledge of German and begin to speak in complete sentences. Through a combination of memory games and video, it will increase your confidence in using the language in a variety of situations.

Description

This course will engage both the logical and creative sides of your brain by combining words in visual and audio form to make context, improving your memory and helping you to remember key words and phrases.

The goals are achievable, broken down into a series of rewarding challenges. As you play interactive games, you're fed new words and pictures to reinforce your memory, and then test your knowledge with quizzes. You'll hear your new language constantly and, using the recording games, you can start speaking right away, and compare your voice to a native speaker.

This “beginner plus” language course helps you to:

  • Improve your pronunciation with the recording quiz, which allows you to compare your accent against that of a native speaker.
  • Learn useful conversational phrases you might need abroad, including ‘I’d like to pay by credit card’ and ‘My camera has been stolen’.
  • Use structures that can be adapted to fit different situations and put together complete sentences.
  • Build your confidence in speaking.

Features

  • Quizzes within each section test you on the vocabulary you have just learnt.
  • You’ll feel motivated to learn by earning points that will win you bronze, silver and gold awards.
  • Printable vocabulary sheets with each topic for you to take away with you and keep learning on the move.
  • Video footage allows you to see body language and lip movements of native speakers.
  • Alphabet section teaches you the individual sounds.
  • Covers nine different everyday situations: meeting and greeting, shops and restaurants, getting around, hotels, phone calls, emergencies, leisure and business.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
