How to improve your Swiss German speaking skills?

5/23/2022

 
Every Monday at 9 Pm, we have a lesson with our tutor Nadia.

So before you start...
  • Listen to my short audio recording (you can listen to it as much as you want)
  • Read over the transcript
  • Read it again but aloud to practice pronunciation
  • Make some notes if you want to
During the lesson, we meet on Zoom in small groups where we discuss the topic. You can feel free to talk about anything, there is no pressure or judgement. We are here to listen to your ideas and support you.

If your Swiss German is at the advanced level, and you enjoy participating in discussions in small groups, just contact me to discuss the details.

Below, you have an example of the introduction to our lesson. Members also see the transcript of my audio recording.
