Host: I currently teach French in a school in Shropshire and am learning Spanish. I lived in Germany for two years, and spent 13 years teaching German in a grammar school where I still work as a boarding tutor.
This grammar based session will help you learn modal verbs in a simplified manner! In this lesson, students will be introduced to modal verbs and learn how important they are in every day German. Sollen has a variety of meanings, including ‘shall or should / ought) and is used in a range of situations and topics. Students will form some sentences using a sentence builder before practising using the verb sollen in useful sentences. This class is great for students in Years 9 - 11 looking to improve their grammar.
