ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½

A visit from a local secondary school proved a perfect opportunity to showcase German and other language offerings at the CLCC.

On Friday 7^th Oct, twenty pupils from the  (GCH) secondary school visited the Centre for Languages, Culture and Communication to find out about language opportunities at ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ and in particular, the study of German.

The visit was organised by Mr Luke Cheveralls, Head of German at GCH, and Dr Fliss Starr Egger, CLCC Director of Languages.

After a brief campus tour, the pupils had a presentation on Languages, Horizons, Language for Science (LfS) and Year Abroad  as well as the department overall. A number of Imperial ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ joined the session to talk about their reasons for learning German and their experience of residence abroad: Matthew Gilman, Jose Guzman and Joshua Parks (University of Heidelberg, Germany) and Zofia Pukalo (University of Vienna, Austria). 

The idea for the visit had come about at a chance meeting of Luke Cheveralls and Fliss Starr-Egger at the German Embassy in June, when Luke was presented with a 'German Teacher of the Year Award'.
