Course Information:
Introduction to the German language and culture.
You are about to learn to understand, speak, read, and write a foreign
language that will open many new personal and professional doors to
you. This course is designed for success, but you must do your part. Plan on two hours of
homework for every hour of class time since "cramming" is not an effective
method for learning a foreign language.
Since the focus will be on communication skills, attendance and
participation is of the utmost importance. You cannot expect
to master an unfamiliar language without hearing it spoken.

Treffpunkt Deutsch, 3rd ed.
Treffpunkt Deutsch Workbook, 3rd.ed
