I’m a former teacher of German who has forgotten more than I ever knew! I set up this group in January 2023, in the hope that there might be others out there who would enjoy trying to speak the language, and the response so far has been great.

KAFFEETRINKEN is all about encouraging the speaking of German over a cup of coffee (or tea) and cake! If you speak German, from a smattering you learned at school to native speaker level, come and join us! The aim is to have fun trying to communicate in the language and although there are no formal grammar lessons, we all help  each other to get across what we are trying to say. The class begins with some informal catch-up chat, then breaks into smaller groups to discuss some questions on a theme which I send out in advance each month. Each group has a member who is a teacher of German, which is a great help to less experienced speakers of the language. We are also very lucky to have some native speakers who don’t mind getting their brains picked when we are stuck for a word - this happens a lot!)

The first meeting of the new session will take place on Thursday 28th September  2023 at 3pm.   

If you would like some more information, please contact me on the email address above. I’ll look forward to hearing from you!
