💼 What the programme involves
Project: the annual German Summer School is an intensive German course which provides opportunities for spiritual growth, challenging work and fun. Its primary objectives are to enable students to immerse themselves in an German speaking community in order to become fluent German speakers.
Work: teaching German. Special Orientation program (lasts 2 days 18-19 of July) will be provided in L'viv, the teachers will be lodged at UCU Residential College. We encourage the volunteer teachers to stay for a day or two after the camp (we take care of the lodging if it”™s up to 2 days) to say a proper "good-bye" to the students and do some more sightseeing in city. During the orientation program the teachers get to know each other, there”™s team-building and basic instruction in the methodology of teaching.
The Academic Program is centered on three daily classes, two before lunch and one after.
Besides regular classes we also have evening tutoring and evening activities. So, this is not just teaching, but also creating a German-speaking environment and a community of people who enjoy studying and spending time together. Detailed schedule can be send upon request.
