A equipe

Nossa equipe competente e motivada tem grande competência e anos de experiência em transferir conhecimento. Para nós é fundamental que o aprendizado seja acima de tudo divertido. Em um ambiente motivador, fica mais fácil de obter o progresso desejado na aprendizagem do idioma. Isto também é considerado importante pelos nossos professores que foram cuidadosamente escolhidos. Em nossas aulas ninguém fica sentado e somente ouvindo, ao contrário, estimulamos a participação ativa dos participantes. Além disso, o nosso método visa animar o aluno para poder também aprender de forma independente. Tudo isto foi cuidadosamente pensado para acelerar e qualificar a aprendizagem do idioma.

The perfect lesson

Unfortunately, there is no such thing as the perfect lesson because everyone is different. Here are some key features of how we as Team Speakeasy envision the perfect classroom.

• Inspiring learning environment – our rooms are bright, friendly and colorful, just like the people in them.
• Lively lessons – there is room for laughter and fun.
• Motivating teachers – convey their enthusiasm for the German language and respond to learners’ questions and challenges.
• Simple explanations – our teachers explain things clearly, patiently and in a friendly manner so that all learners can follow along well.
• Modern methodology – games or practical examples make it fun and make you curious about what is to come.
• Interactive elements – discussions or group work encourage speaking and community.
• Real-life examples – give course participants the opportunity to apply what they have learned in real-life situations.
• Clear textbooks – a common thread in the lessons helps learners to better understand and retain vocabulary and grammar.
• Regular feedback – helps learners to see their progress and stay motivated.
• Our additional program – for example a visit to a pub together or a guided tour of the city provide variety and a relaxed atmosphere.

Learning to learn

Learning a new language, such as German, is like an adventure.

It starts with the brain absorbing new words and sentences through seeing, hearing and reading. These impressions are then processed in the brain and compared with the knowledge already acquired in the mother tongue.

In order to learn German successfully, it is crucial to practise regularly and repeat the acquired knowledge so that new connections in the brain become stronger and stronger. A small lane should become a multi-lane highway – this is how you have to imagine the links or neuronal connections.

If you learn actively and continuously, your brain will strengthen the neuronal connections. Focusing on correct pronunciation and grammar can help with this.

Motivation also plays a major role in learning German. A personal interest in German culture or communicating with German speakers increases the ability to learn.

In addition, techniques such as reading books, watching movies or practicing with native speakers are effective ways to reinforce what you have learned. Avoid distractions and create an environment in which you enjoy learning. Maybe it helps to put flowers on the table or drink from your favorite cup.

Learning German as a foreign language is a journey that requires patience and perseverance. The brain works in a unique way to learn this new language. Use the methods and strategies mentioned above to maximize your learning progress.
