    About The Course

    Our online course guides you through the Handbook of Reading Theological German so that at the end you are proficient in reading and translating theological German texts. In 20 modules we introduce you to German theology and teach you how to use the Mainz Method checklist. Each step on the checklist is explained with a short video lectures focusing on the key points of the grammatical concepts being introduced. 

    In addition you practice the new grammar with online exercises and can evaluate your progress with short quizzes at the end of each module. In the second part of the course, important German theologians and their texts are introduced with short video lectures about their work in general and in more detail about the text provided in the book. The lectures prepare you for your own translation. As part of the course you are asked to hand in the translation of the first paragraph of each text and we will give you individual feedback on your translations. The feedback tells you how to improve your translation skills. Along with lectures, exercises, and quizzes, we give you the opportunity to get in contact with other students via our online discussion board. Questions concerning the course material can be discussed and our German theology experts will answer all questions.
