VDSS Events
We organise a general annual training workshop for Saturday School teachers which provides our teachers with the opportunity to share their experiences, get new ideas and learn new ways of engaging our children to learn German.
In addition, we organise topical workshops for our teachers upon need.
Teacher Training
How do you run a Saturday School? We regularly exchange experiences and ideas for founding and running a Saturday School, e.g. about teacher recruitment, premises, organisational format, child safety, insurance, German exams etc.
