We are proud to offer courses in partnership with the Goethe-Institut USA. These advanced training courses are designed for interested and practicing teachers of German.
The current didactic theory aims to improve teaching competence and allow teachers to gain a formal GFL qualification. Ideas and approaches from the training courses can be applied directly in a practical scenario.
All Goethe-Institut USA courses are offered online as 8-week sessions with 4 live virtual instructor sessions and may be taken for Professional Development or Graduate-level credit.
Pre-requisite: The entry requirement is German at level B2 in accordance with the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) or Advanced Low ACTFL Proficiency Level. Please take this assessment and email a screenshot of the results to [email protected].
