Whether you’re curious about learning German or looking for the right course to strengthen your skills, this session will give you a feel for our teaching approach. The trial session also includes helpful information about our course formats, so you’ll know what to expect if you decide to continue learning with us.

We offer different online course format options:

• group or individual,
• relaxed to super-intensive,
• book-based or with a 50% online self-study component.

The trial session is an example session taught on a low proficiency-level open to all interested students, with lots of information about our diverse course formats. No matter your personal skill level, in our trial session you will discover how we teach and what course is best for you.

When you are ready to join a course, if you are a beginner you will start with the A1.1 level and if you already have some experience with German, a placement test will help find the right course level.

The teaching method used by the Goethe-Institut is based on monolingual instruction, meaning that German is used as much as possible in the course from the very beginning.
Since the online courses offered in Canada are conducted in collaboration with the Goethe-Institut USA, English will be used as a support language when necessary.
