Language & Culture

¿Te apetece pasar una tarde agradable jugando a juegos de mesa y conociendo gente nueva en un ambiente relajado y cercano? Este encuentro está pensado precisamente para eso: socializar, conectar y pasarlo bien, sin importar si ya conoces los juegos o si es tu primera vez en el grupo. ¿Qué tipo de juegos jugamos? Elegimos juegos accesibles, dinámicos y sociales, no solo juegos largos o complicados. Por ejemplo: Juegos rápidos y ligeros como 6 nimmt!, Love Letter o Sushi Go Juegos de interacción y risas como Codenames, Dixit o Exploding Kittens Juegos de deducción social como The Resistance, Salem o Werewolves Y, si apetece, algún juego un poco más estratégico, siempre explicado con calma No importa si es tu primera vez en el grupo: explicamos las reglas y elegimos juegos accesibles para que todo el mundo se sienta cómodo desde el principio. El juego es solo la excusa para socializar y conectar de forma natural. Un espacio seguro y diverso Solemos ser un grupo diverso, abierto y con muy buen rollo, donde se respeta a todo el mundo. Queremos crear un entorno amable, sin juicios, en el que cualquiera pueda sentirse a gusto. ️ En español (o para practicarlo) Si hablas español o te apetece practicarlo en un entorno amable y natural, estarás más que bienvenida/o. El grupo suele estar formado por personas de distintos orígenes y niveles, y la comunicación fluye de manera relajada. Si te apetece conocer gente de forma tranquila, sin presión y con los juegos como punto de encuentro, este plan es para ti. ¡Te esperamos! Nota: se solicitará a los participantes una donación de 2€ para gastos de organización y compra de juegos.

In diesem Kurs beschäftigen wir uns mit verschiedenen Texten aus unterschiedlichen Bereichen. Das können u.a. kurze Geschichten, Gedichte, Zeitungsartikel, Kolumnen oder Videos sein. Immer sind es Themen, die uns gefallen, die wir besonders interessant, wichtig oder manchmal auch richtig schlecht finden. Gemeinsam versuchen wir die Position der Autor*in, den Stil und die Argumentationsstruktur zu verstehen. Dazu diskutieren wir über das, was wir verstehen, welche Meinung wir zu dem Thema haben oder welche Fragen offen bleiben.
Gerne könnt ihr uns auch Themenvorschläge mitbringen oder zuschicken.
Der Kurs richtet sich an interessierte Menschen mit einem B2-Niveau (oder so ähnlich), die Lust haben sich weiter mit der deutschen Sprache zu beschäftigen und ihren Wortschatz zu erweitern.
Die Termine sind sporadisch.

The Language Café is primarily aimed at people who are struggling with their mental health which can make it hard to go to regular courses. We want to create a safe space for everyone to learn and practise without pressure. Everyone is welcome! Please try to be on time so we can all get started together :) We mainly practise on a beginner/lower intermediate level and adapt to everyone's prior level of German. The Language Café will focus on teaching you the most important words and phrases and basic grammar in German. The content of the course is adapted to real life. (everyday life in Germany, dealing with authorities, etc.) We will cover different topics every week and you can join us anytime, since the topics do not necessarily build on each other. The Sprachcafé is for free. \*If you cannot make it please cancel your participation so someone else from the waiting list can join, thank you!\* \| \| \| \|
