Class Experience

Certify your language proficiency by taking a Goethe-Institut German exam.
The A1 Goethe-Zertifikat and test is meant for students who have completed two semesters of the A1 level (German 1a and German 1b) and feel comfortable with the following:

A1
Can understand and use familiar, everyday expressions and very simple sentences, which relate to the satisfying of concrete needs. Can introduce him/herself and others as well as ask others about themselves – e.g. where they live, who they know and what they own – and can respond to questions of this nature. Can communicate in a simple manner if the person they are speaking to speaks slowly and clearly and is willing to help.

This might be out of your hands, but I wish the test could have been spoken in person instead of on a CD. The digital voices were very difficult for a new language learner to understand.

Meet your Instructors

Henrike B.

My name is Henrike Belz, I’m a native German speaker, mother of three adult „kids”, and living here in Austin since 2004. I’m teaching mainly adults at all levels (A1-C1) and all ages (16 - 86!), in person and, since the pandemic hit, online as well. Beyond that, I’m a certified Prüferin for the Goethe Exams, which is a very humbling experience. When I’m not teaching, I most often will be found in my wildlife habitat at home, gardening ‘til sunset, saving the environment one plant at a time.

Rita G.

I am a native speaker, born in a tiny town in Saxony, and moved to Austin in 2006. In fall of 2018 I began working for GTHS as an Assistant Teacher at Samstagsschule. These days I teach mostly adults in beginning levels. I like to point out the many similarities between English and German, show that not everything is hard and new, which my students find reassuring.
