What is the course about?
This course is a continuation of the beginners Danish course (Danish 1: module 2) building upon and expanding basic Danish conversational skills as well as increasing knowledge of Danish culture.
What will we cover?
You will learn to communicate in a broader range of everyday situations with topcis such as going to the doctors, life stages and traditions (birthdays, marriage, baptism), facts about Danish society, and expressing your opinions, dreams, wishes and desires.
What will I achieve?
By the end of this course you should be able to...
- talk about your health
- talk about the main stages in your life
- talk about Danish traditions and society
- express and justify opinions, dreams, wishes and desires
- talk about past, present and future events.
What level is the course and do I need any particular skills?
This course is for near beginners – students should have completed Danish beginners: module 2 or have equivalent experience (i.e. have studied actively for at least 33 classroom hours). For further details of the specific foreign language skills required for this level, please see the languages self assessment chart at the start of the languages section of our course guide or at http://www.citylit.ac.uk/self-assess-your-level
You will also need to be able to respond to simple instructions and explanations, as well as read course documents, in English. You will need to be at ease with the use of numbers for daily activities (e.g. using money, telling the time, using the 24 hour clock, reading timetables). It would also be helpful if you had some knowledge of basic grammar terminology such as: a verb, a noun and conjugation.
How will I be taught, and will there be any work outside the class?
Our courses are characterised by spoken interaction and communication. Typical activities include pair work, group work, role plays and games. A range of resources will be used to support your learning including presentations, hand-outs, and audio-visual material.
Homework is highly recommended to consolidate learning.
Are there any other costs? Is there anything I need to bring?
Based on tutor's own material and supplementary material from
Colloquial Danish: The Complete Course for Beginners (0415301823).
When I've finished, what course can I do next?
Continue learning Danish after Christmas by enrolling on a Danish 2 lower: module 1 class.
