Hallo liebe Menschen!
Welcome to the newsletter of QUEER_gesprochen?! In this newsletter, I want to give you an overview about new (and ongoing) offerings and some general informations in case you don’t know much about what this little project is about. Next to the titles you find information about the language the offer is using.
The newsletter and email-list is handmade, so if you don’t want to receive it anymore or not even sure why you get it in the first place, please let me know by answering this email so I can sort you out. 🙂 In case your email provider and the layout is not working together and it’s hard to read, I posted the content also on my website: …
And since I personally find newsletter with only events and courses a bit boring, I want to give you a little exercise as a bonus! You find it in the General Information section.
News in October
New Courses
Preparation course for B1 Examination
In a small group we want to practise exercises of the B1 examination. On the first appointment we will take a look on different test formats and how they differ from each other. In the other appointments we will focus on one part of the examination and how to tackle that, e.g. listening comprehension. The course will be on-site at E13, a cozy workshopspace in Berlin-Wedding and happen bi-weekly. Start is on October 26th and we meet four times from 1-4pm. Please sign here.
A little less peinlich
Polar Embassy, a cute little publisher for games, zines and other nice things made by queers, published a card set for sex education. I did the translations for the German version and I’m very happy that it’s now in the shops! Check it out here.

What is QUEER_gesprochen?! and who is it for?
QUEER_gesprochen?! is a project which offers German language courses for LGBTQIA*, trainings for teachers and companies about diversity sensitivity and gender neutral language.
It is for people of all sizes and shapes, regardless of ethnic or social origin, class, religion, gender, sexuality, sexual preference, disability, age, profession or anything else that makes us who we are. I create the courses as a safe space for all who want to learn the German language but feel uncomfortable in other classes or want to connect with other queer folk.
If not statet differently, all courses are online.
