Content
German is learnt in context using teaching materials and/or authentic texts. Basic vocabulary and structures are practised, consolidated and expanded through written and oral exercises (drills, role-plays, interviews, conversations, etc.).
Teaching methods
- Classes in groups of up to 25 students.
- 30 hours (Q1) + 30 hours (Q2) of face-to-face teaching
- daily work is essential
Evaluation methods
The content of the exams and continuous assessment covers the chapters of the DaF A1 textbook studied during the course.
For each session (January and June), different marks contribute to the assessment:
1. Continuous assessment: the tests set for students during the year count towards the final mark (20% of the final mark)
2. Written exam (60%: grammar 30%, reading and listening 20%, written expression 10%) and oral exam (20%)
For the September session, continuous assessment is no longer taken into account. The assessment covers the entire material covered during the year. The final mark is weighted as follows: written examination 70 % (grammar 40%, reading and listening 20%, written expression 10%) and oral examination 30%.

Generative artificial intelligence (AI) must be used responsibly and in accordance with the principles of academic and scientific integrity. As scientific integrity requires that sources be cited, the use of AI must always be acknowledged. The use of artificial intelligence for tasks or examinations where it is explicitly prohibited will be regarded as cheating.
Carrying a connected device on one’s person or within easy reach (even if switched off or in aeroplane mode) during any form of assessment is prohibited and will be considered an instance of cheating. This includes, for example, mobile phones, smartwatches, earphones, translation pens, etc. This list is not exhaustive!
Any attempt to cheat will be reported to the relevant examination board and the student will face the consequences.
