Our Approach to Learning
We believe all children have different learning styles and develop at their own pace. To learn a language, students need to be actively involved in the learning process, experiencing a variety of developmentally appropriate activities and materials.
We recognize that young children learn through play, movement, music and hands-on activities, and our curriculum incorporates traditional children’s games, puppet-theater and play-acting, and songs, arts and crafts from Austria, Germany and Switzerland. Each semester concludes with a festive celebration where the classes perform for friends, family and the school community.
Germany is an important country in Europe with a top economic ranking, and is number four worldwide. It is home to many international companies and skill in the German language opens many career opportunities.
Participants work with their classmates and the instructor during class towards developing their beginning listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills in an immersion setting; all class activities are conducted primarily in German.
German classes are offered by San Jose Learning Center. German classes are designed for students who have very little to no experience with the German language.
If you still feel like learning German is daunting, don’t worry! Keep on reading our guide to learning German and you’ll find everything you need to know to get started.
