German Conversation and Reading

The Group’s focus is to share members’ interests in the culture of German-speaking countries, alongside discussing and enjoying the finer details of the language whilst advancing our speaking skills.

This is a conversation and reading group rather than a teaching group and members should have a good knowledge of German, with experience of actually speaking the language, as well as enthusiasm to participate in discussions, and so unfortunately is would not be appropriate for beginners.

We divide our meeting into two parts:

Part One: The reading and discussion, in German, of our chosen book.

Part Two: German Conversation – a lively mix of sharing our news or interests, a presentation of a topic about the arts, history or a biography, and sometimes a quick quiz about grammar or vocabulary.

There is currently room for 3 more members.
