Course description

This course is aimed at the spouses and children of expatriates in Switzerland. Apart from teaching vocabulary and grammar, the role of this course in integration is very important. For a Japanese family, where do I find the best fish in the region? Where do I find the right doctor for an American spouse? These topics play a defining role in moulding the course.

A social and cultural exchange which trains the hands-on, everyday German needed in the greater Basel area.
