What Advanced (C1+) German means

At C1+ German, learners can express complex ideas precisely, understand nuance and adapt their language to different contexts.

  • Qualify an argument

    So überzeugend die Argumentation im Großen und Ganzen auch ist, lässt sie mehrere unbeabsichtigte Folgen außer Acht.

    While the argument is broadly convincing, it overlooks several unintended consequences.

  • Convey nuance

    Ich lehne den Vorschlag an sich nicht ab, sondern stelle seine übereilte Umsetzung infrage.

    I do not oppose the proposal itself; what I question is the rushed way it is being implemented.

  • Adapt your register

    Ich wäre Ihnen dankbar, wenn Sie die Entscheidung angesichts der beigefügten zusätzlichen Informationen überdenken würden.

    I would be grateful if you would reconsider the decision in light of the additional information attached.

These are general examples of language use at this level, not a description of any individual course syllabus.

About this course

Teaching centres on spoken communication, with pair and group work, role plays, games, presentations and other tutor-selected activities. Topics may be adapted to the group, and homework is recommended to consolidate classroom learning.
