This course brushes up and deepens fundamentals of grammar and vocabulary and is the follow-up course to “Deutsch als Fremdsprache: A1.2”. It covers chapters 1–6 in <i>Netzwerk neu A2.1</i>. Participants will train for various linguistic situations from daily, academic, and professional life.
In the course, you will expand your vocabulary and grammar through texts, videos, and audio clips on topics like personal background, school, education, online communication and media, feelings, urban life, work, and career. You will learn how to express yourself simply and appropriately in various concrete daily and conversational situations and to write short and simple messages and texts.
