Title: Goethe-Institut Workshop
Post by: clarke54321 on November 22, 2016, 09:47:55 pm
Hiya!

Has anyone tried the Goethe-Institut VCE preparation workshop, which runs over January?

If so, can you please provide feedback on experiences?

Thanks!

Might be late, but I only found the Grammar one worthwhile. For the other ones, they are a waste of time. They literally print out VCAA papers and take publicly available audio clips form their own website, that is irrelevant to VCE.

I agree with Rosalie, I didn't take much at all from these workshops. That said, Ritter is much better than Goethe. Only went to see if I was missing out on anything since I didn't have anything else to do

Fantastic, thanks for the advice. Do you know when Ritter runs these workshops?

Usually during the holidays so many yr12s don't go since they're studying for other exams. Classes still fill out though.
