English? Everybody speaks English … somehow … somehow?! That´s the point! We, as English teachers at the Max-Delbrück-Gymnasium, naturally work on turning somehow into very well!
Of course, we teach speaking, listening, reading, writing and mediating to make our students improve. As it is the first foreign language at our school, we offer English class from 7th grade on until the very end, meaning: Abitur. Our 7th and 8th graders have half-class lessons (Teilungsunterricht) for more intense work and support.
In principle, it is also important to us that our students gain confidence in their own language abilities. Therefore, we continuously work on making (extra-)curricular offers. Being the investigative type? So why not discover the fascinating world of Crime in the course of time with us (Profilierungskurs)?! Interested in world politics? Let´s join the MDG world news class to do some more research (in order to also share it with your schoolmates later on). Love speaking English and meeting people? So why not participate in our student exchange program with Sweden which focusses on My sustainability – Your sustainability?! Wanting to do something for your future education? Well, the AG Cambridge Certificate might be an option?!
After all, we want to show English as it is in today´s world: one of the most important languages that everybody speaks!
ABOUT US
We are 15 English teachers. We enjoy being as diverse as a rainbow. Yet, we all have two things in common: we all love the English language and we are devoted teachers.
From schoolyear 24/25 on, starting in grade 7, we will work with Green Line (Klett). In grade 10, we work with Camden Town (Westermann).
