3 + 10 + 26 June, 1.30 - 2.30 pm. -Mini sessions: Language meets Culture - Communicating confidently in German
Does this sound familiar? German isn’t your first language, you understand almost everything – and yet you sometimes feel unsure in everyday university life.
When is it appropriate to use “du” and when “Sie”? Why do some people seem so direct? And what’s simply a cultural difference – and what feels personal?
Our mini-workshops give you the space to explore these questions and many more. Together, we look at typical situations from university and daily life, clarify uncertainties, and strengthen your feel for both language and culture.
This is a place to ask questions, try things out, and keep learning – in a relaxed and supportive atmosphere.
You can join at any time.
Requirement: German language skills at B2/C1 level.
Further dates: 6 May, 27 May, 3 June, 10 June, 24 June

7 July, 3 - 5 pm. - Guided walk through Hamburg’s historic Grindelviertel
Join us for a guided walk through Hamburg’s historic Grindelviertel, where we will explore the former sites of synagogues and other Jewish institutions that once shaped the neighborhood.
Along the way, we will hear about the stories and fates of Jewish residents who lived here, shedding light on their lives before and during the Nazi era. The tour will also reflect on different forms of remembrance, including the “Stolpersteine” (stumbling stones) — small memorial plaques placed in front of the last voluntarily chosen homes of those who were persecuted and murdered.
The tour will be in English.
