Annotation

The course is intended for students (especially bachelor’s degree students) who want to learn the basics of German, are thinking about future studies or internships in German-speaking countries and would like to navigate themselves better in everyday situations, or want to prepare for higher-level follow-up courses at a faster pace. Its concept assumes that the student already knows one foreign language.

It follows the course in the winter semester. The course is taught on the basis of Czech.

Knowledge of this language is, therefore, a prerequisite for meaningful participation in the course.
