German Advanced

A settled class of seven or eight members that has been running for over ten years, reading and discussing German with as much of the session as possible conducted in the language. Members have worked through short stories, selections from Anne Frank's diary and newspaper articles, and are currently reading a series of modern detective stories written for intermediate and more advanced students, appreciated for their up to date and sometimes colloquial German. English is used where comprehension problems occur or to explain a point of grammar. The class is not suitable for beginners in the language. It meets weekly on Thursday afternoons at the Dolman Theatre in Newport, from 1.30pm until 3pm.
