German Language Courses

Important Information

If you do not have any German language knowledge / have never participated in a German language class, please choose the course Schnupperkurs A0 - Taster course A0.

The course A1.1 is meant for students who already have a little knowledge of German language.

 

In order to best place you in a VIP German course (A1.1 to B2) that is appropriate to your level, we ask you to hand in a German language certificate. If you do not have a certificate, please complete the following placement test: https://einstufungstests.klett-sprachen.de/eks/DaF-A1-C1/ .The test can test up to C1 level (approx. 60 minutes), so it´s perfectly fine if you skip a task and just keep going. After you completed the test, you´ll receive the result via e-mail. Please, send them to daf-aaaprotect me ?!admin.uni-giessenprotect me ?!.de
