Goethe-Institut Irland is Germany’s official cultural institute, promoting the German language and culture in Ireland. It offers language courses, exams, and cultural events for learners of all levels. German is a valuable skill on the job market, especially in business, science, and technology, where Germany plays a leading role in Europe.
Register your students for a visit to Goethe-Institut Irland this #ThinkLanguages Week, where they will learn about German, Germany, and what the Institut offers to students and teachers.
