For those who are tired of monotonous grammar classes and reviews. The following classes will focus on the one aspect missing from most courses elsewhere - and that's conversation! We will practice your conversational skills in a round-table discussion. Each week, we will cover a different topic ranging from politics, art, pop culture, etc. The class is not restricted to just the weekly articles and U.S. topics as long as we talk in English. We will practice conversational English with common questions and topics used in daily life.

In this class with human geographer Jessica Strain from New York we will deal with current topics from National Geographic and look at their global impact as well as their impact on our lives in Germany. To mix this class up a little bit, we will not only be working with texts and articles, but also with audio files and video clips.

Public diplomacy has been around for a long time, but modern American public diplomacy originates in Washington’s efforts to culturally penetrate the Soviet Union. Governments today realize that communicating with foreign publics is an imperative of international life. Scholars study culture to understand individual countries, yet another level of analysis seeks to explore the production, transmission, and influence of culture across national borders.

While International Relations typically focuses on political and economic forces, public diplomacy is concerned with the roles of mass opinion, propaganda, or strategic persuasion. As a field of scholarship, it exists on the periphery of several disciplines, where culture is defined in a broad anthropological sense. If traditional diplomacy is centered on state-to-state relations, especially among elites, public diplomacy employs technological advances in global communications which allows states to transcend narrow diplomatic channels or governments (especially closed authoritarian states) and reach the masses of people.

This course will focus on American public diplomacy from the perspective of international history, with particular reference to Germany since it was both the original target audience of America’s postwar reeducation plan and launching pad for cultural activity and transmission into the Eastern Bloc.

"When it comes to wine, I tell people to throw away the vintage charts and
invest in a corkscrew.The best way to learn about wine is the drinking."
- Alexis Lichine

D.a.i. teacher and wine enthusiast Anthony Churchill shares Alexis Lichine's
opinion.The focus of the course will be on affordable wines, but the discussions that results should know no bounds. Let's meet and put the world to
rights over a glass of wine and some cheese - every week with a different
wine, selected and presented by a different member of the group.
