  • Description:

    This class is suitable for a variety of levels of ability, but you need a reasonable working level of German. We read a sentence each (with help with pronunciation if necessary) and translate into English. It is a fun way to brush up rusty language, get to grips with varying sentence structures and expand vocabulary. We will be continuing to read 'Gray' by Leonie Swann (ISBN 9783 4424 88315 - make sure you get it in the original German). It is a modern, quirky, light-hearted Krimi set in Cambridge and college life. We will be nearly half way through, but I will provide a short synopsis for newcomers.

  • Format: Taught course or activity
  • Level: Level: Roughly A level, rusty would be fine.

  • Tutor: Jill Tatham
