Why learn German?

If you can speak German, you can

• read works by the great authors of the last centuries such as Goethe, Schiller and Brecht in the original;

• include something on your CV that will catch the eye of prospective employers (20% of Italian companies are looking for applicants with a knowledge of German);

• study free of charge at a university in Germany, Austria or Switzerland;

• visit the Berlinale, go to Munich for the Oktoberfest or join in Karneval in Cologne;

• read the latest academic publications (German is the second most popular language in academic publications, and 28% of all books published worldwide are written in German);
