I’d be glad to assist recent arrivals with some very first steps in German. I have two years of professional experience teaching rapid immersion classes in the startup scene, and would be happy to offer the same or similar format either on campus or in the Neukölln/Kreuzberg area: German A1.1 within four days, course topics typically center on grocery shopping, finding an apartment, asking for assistance, dealing with German bureaucracy (Anmeldung etc.). Ideally, we’ll put together a small group of max. 10 strong learners (prior academic experience and basic English will be helpful). If you’re interested or know of someone who might be, please reach out to me at eva.kiesele@fu-berlin.de
