German Facts

German is able to heap words upon one another to create long compound words: whereas in English compounds are formed 'openly' (with spaces)

Germany is spoken primarily in Germany, Austria, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg and Switzerland, as well as in some border villages of Denmark - though German-speaking communities have survived in places such as Hungary, Russia and Kazakhstan

Until circa 1800, standard German was pretty much only a written language, due to the variety of regional dialects

German 1 to 1 Business

German courses of this type are aimed towards those that need to learn German to aid them with their employment. For those just starting out, it is integral to learn basic greetings and business etiquette; and reading and writing can be adopted once the simple precepts are out of the way. Success has come from students who are involved in import/export, international negotiations and acquisitions, those seeking jobs in multinational companies, and those working with foreign colleagues, academia and bureaucracy. Just our most basic beginners course will have the student finishing the course with basic telephone/e-mail skills in German, as well as survival German should a short stay in the country be needed.

German 1 to 1 General

These German lessons fit a broader spectrum, and can be useful for those who need different things from the language. Most beginner students will have a handle of survival German by the end of their course, which will provide them without enough German to communicate at least at a basic level during short trips to the country, but those who require more would benefit greatly from these sessions. Typical students have been those eager to travel all over the world, those buying overseas property, those with foreign spouses, aficionados of German culture and those who just wish to pass a particular German exam.

Northampton

A large market town in central England, Northampton has a population in the region of 190,000, and is the UK's third largest town without official city status. Traditionally a centre for shoemaking, Northampton benefitted greatly economically from the railway age. The town is now known for its numerous parks, as well as its historical churches and abbeys. Much of its history was destroyed by fires in the 16th and 17th centuries, but this has instead led to it being rebuilt as a spacious and well-planned settlement.
