Course Summary

The main aim of the German courses at SFC is for students to acquire the skills necessary to talk about themselves in German. Video sketches that introduce the German language to students through everyday situations at SFC form the core of the class content. After the one year of intensive 1 and 2 courses (basic 1 and 2 courses are equivalent to the intensive 1 course), students will be able to express their opinions and talk about their daily lives in German. Furthermore, at the intensive course 3 level, the setting of the sketches will move on to the German-speaking region. Topics of regionality and local culture are covered in the videos, allowing students to learn expressions and strategies that are important for communication in German. After completing intensive course 3, students can further improve their German skills through the skill and contents courses. Students are also encouraged to participate in the overseas language program. Further opportunities for overseas study include a one-year exchange program organized by the university as well as scholarship opportunities for short-term fieldwork. Steadily continuing to study German based on an enjoyable and fulfilling program will enable students to acquire practical German skills that can be used in the real world.
