This course is a special offer for students who want to prepare for the TestDaF exam. However, all other students who wish to improve their language skills are also most welcome. Following this course, an enrolment for the examination is possible.

Description/content

The specialised course "Preparation for the TestDaF Exam" can only be chosen in combination with and in addition to the language course "Language and Society in Modern Germany". The specialised course in the afternoon takes up eight hours per week and the language course in the morning takes up 20 hours per week. Our weekly programme will be rounded off by additional offers like seminars on German culture, an international choir, a theatre workshop, film nights, sports and a literature café. These additional offers amount to at least 12 hours per week.

International students must acquire sufficient knowledge of the German language. Students who cannot provide certification must take the DSH or TestDaF exam in order to study at a German university.

This course will prepare you for all four parts of the exam (reading comprehension and scientific structures, listening comprehension, text composition, speaking). The instructor and the participants will develop effective structures to cope with each part. Mock exams will test your knowledge and familiarise you with the exam.
