Business German - Deutsch für Geschäftsleute


Guenther Krumpak of ITBeurope is one of your language trainers. He has a long history of speeches, presentations and lectures. Photo El Kordy.

German is a difficult language. Quite comparable to Czech. A lot of business communication therefore runs in English. But for a lot of reasons, business communication in the German speaking countries – ROUGHLY A HUNDRED MILLION SPEAKERS – is much more successful in German.

And if you work in or for a German, Austrian, or Swiss company, German is a must – for the business itself, but also for your successful socialisation within the company. And if you live and work in a German speaking country, life is much easier if you master that language. And – IT’S MUCH MORE FUN.

ITBeurope offers a lot more than conventional language classes. In our courses, we visit companies, read and discuss newspaper articles, watch TV, organise excursions to German speaking institutions and schools, and we talk to individuals, at cafés, in offices, wherever.

There’s not just one book. There’s a full range of them. Newspapers. And videos. And we will fine tune your language, so that you don’t have that “funny accent” reputation.

First you talk, then you read, and then you get some grammar background. And then you write. And as a particular goodie, you will do presentations:

In the “Specials” section, you will find “Presentation skills”. This is one of the most important skills for sales people and entrepreneurs. It is YOU on a stage, and you want to SELL your goodies to those people in the audience. Will they applaud? Will they sign? Will they BUY? It is not just your product – it is YOU.

Evaluation

Before we start working on your language skills, we need to know how good you are. We have therefore made a rough ranking:

* beginners. Don’t be afraid!
** Advanced. You have basic skills, you can go shopping or read a train schedule.
*** Well advanced. You can communicate a bit with locals, you can read simple texts.
**** You speak, read and write, but you need perfection.

These levels will be evaluated in a meeting scheduled ahead of regular training by means of standardised tests.
