We'll learn and practise important text types for the C1 level, which are needed for work, studies, C1 exams (e.g., telc Deutsch C1 Hochschule, TestDaF), and German in general: formal letters and emails, arguments, descriptions of graphs, offers and reminders, creative texts, and more. In the course, we'll look at examples and learn important structures and vocabulary. There is a writing homework assignment for each session. We'll correct the texts, discuss typical errors, and practise the grammatical structures required for the C1 level. We'll also explore writing style: How can you write well and appropriately at the C1 level? What distinguishes formal and informal texts? Which vocabulary is suitable for which situation?
