Prior to your first lesson you will take a language assesment test covering grammar as well as vocabulary. This will ensure that you are assigned to a class with students of the same level. The grid outlines the length of time it could take you to reach your goal. This table is based on an intensive course of 30 lessons per week. The time needed to achieve your aims will also vary according to individual skills, age and prior language exposure, amongst other factors. Although it is normal to spend 12 weeks at a level, it is sometimes possible to advance to the next level after 8 weeks of study. Policies regarding this vary from school to school. Starting Out: You would like to be able to talk about yourself, ask and answer simple questions, be familiar with basic phrases and interact with others in simple language with limited grammar and vocabulary. Taking Off: You would like to be able to understand and shape language more elaborately, while recognising different grades of meaning. You might wantto use language more effectively for presentation or debate. You may want to use it for academic purposes. Moving Up: You would like to express yourself effortlessly without having to think in your own language. You would like to understand native speakers conversing with each other or the media and begin expressing yourself in a similar fashion. Reaching Out: You would like to be able to interact with native speakers with ease and a heightened degree of fluency. You would like to communicate spontaneously and effectively about complex and/or abstract topics. Moving On: You would like to be able to deal with most situations in a country where the target language is spoken. You would like to be able to express your thoughts and opinions on many topics with greater accuracy using a wider range of vocabulary and grammar. Making Progress: You would like to learn commonly used expressions, talk about life experiences, your job, your family or any other everyday topics. Present level Your goals Prof. Dr. Jürgen Beneke University of Hildesheim Germany Sprachcaffe Languages PLUS Learning with all your senses! Many people who would like to learn a language believe – because of their experiences at school – that learning and having fun are mutually exclusive. Some believe, in a sense, that you have to suffer, otherwise you will not get the results that you would like to achieve. They are reminded of what learning grammar and vocabulary was likein the past. Even those experiences reinforce that learning a language inevitably involves a degree of pain and effort. Have your own experiences of learning made you afraid of failure, afraid of the teacher, worried about making mistakes or making a fool of yourself? At Sprachcaffe Languages PLUS you will experience a different way of learning. You will have fun and achieve success without losing sight of your serious goals. You will study in a relaxed way, one which is to learning and communicating without fear of making mistakes, literally like having a discussion in a “caffé linguistico”. And this is where the name of the Sprachcaffe institute, which is a play on words, comes in. ’Sprach’ implies language and communication and ’caffé’ refers to the atmosphere we aim to create in the classroom. Sprachcaffe Languages PLUS only teaches a language in a country in which it is spoken. That makes the country, city, and its people an important part of the concept. Learning with all the senses makes all the difference! As a result of all my visits to Sprachcaffe Languages PLUS schools, I have come to the conclusion that all the above mentioned features and qualities are in evidence. Prof. Dr. Jürgen Beneke Professor Jürgen Beneke, PhD, teaches Applied Linguistics at the University of Hildesheim (Germany). His research interests are languages for professional purposes, foreign language didactics and inter-cultural communication. He has been an adviser to many European companies and the Federal Government in Germany. 2 weeks 4 weeks 2 weeks 4 weeks 6 weeks 2 weeks 4 weeks 6 weeks ∞ weeks 48 weeks 24 weeks 12 weeks 2 weeks 4 weeks 6 weeks 48 weeks 24 weeks 12 weeks 2 weeks 4 weeks 6 weeks 24 weeks 12 weeks 2 weeks 4 weeks 6 weeks 12 weeks A0 - Beginner You have had little exposure to the target language either in your education or at work.
