German Clubs

Explore German language teaching with our German Club Starter Kits! Previous knowledge of German is not a necessity to set up a club. Club materials are designed for all club leaders, who wish to introduce students to German as a foreign language. German Club Starter Kits will include a German Club Handbook (digital or hardcopy) for club leaders, gamified learning challenges, badges, and awards for students, with different learning routes according to students' ages. We further offer comprehensive professional training and incentive trips for teachers and heads who start up a club.

Teachers, Get set ... with our German Club Starter Kit

Give your students a glimpse of German, with our German Club Starter Kits! Not a specialist German teacher? Not a problem! Our Club Leader Handbooks contain fully planned sessions, with interactive media and challenges appropriate to students‘ ages.

Comprehensive club materials, interactive media, worksheets with teacher solutions, and fun activites will ...

  • gamify German language learning for students with badges, awards, and in a fun club-house mentality
  • give teachers the opportunity to strengthen their German language teaching with ready-made template lessons that get students engaged with the German language
  • connect pupils and students who share an interest in language learning across schools and nationwide through community building
  • allow non-specialized teachers to explore German language teaching at their own speed in a pedagogically supervisory role
  • encourage and promote talent in students and teachers under the generous GIMAGINE umbrella, with current initiatives and events, incentive trips for teachers, and exchange programmes for students.

Get started!

We are currently working on making available a handbook (hardcopy and digital) containing fully planned sessions with club-activities, lesson plans, interactive and fun learning materials with solutions for teachers to German Club leaders.

If you would like some support in setting up a club, we are happy to come and help out at your school: Our free GEM support is available to schools across England.
