German Classes for Children

German Building with Ferry
YOUNGER CHILDREN’S CLASS

The German classes for younger children are one hour long programs filled with fun and playful activities. Children from age 3-9 will learn basic German vocabulary and conversation skills.

Exposure to German culture through songs, games and stories is an important part of the class as well.

Our maximum class size is 10, so please register early. Children must be potty trained.

OLDER CHILDREN’S CLASS

NO OLDER CHILDREN’S CLASS OFFERED SPRING 2026

Our Children’s class for students ages 9-15 provides a more structured approach to learning German. The structured lessons are augmented by additional fun and playful activities.

The age overlap between the classes recognizes that some younger children may be ready for the more structured approach provided by the class for the older children.

Our maximum class size is 10, so please register early.
