Language proficiency and other requirements
The Ordinance for Entrance into the Teaching Profession NRW (Lehramtszugangsverordnung NRW) stipulates that all teacher education graduates must be proficient in two foreign languages, irrespective of whether they are studying a foreign language or not (an exception applies to teacher education degree programmes for vocational colleges). Foreign language proficiency is not a requirement for the teacher education degree programmes but rather for access to the teaching practice placement. If you do not have sufficient language proficiency at the beginning of the course, you can acquire it while studying for your degree. For more detailed information, go to the ZfL Navigation Tool.
Course description
The degree aims to provide you with solid and structured knowledge of German, which you can then competently and independently utilise and teach not only in a school setting but also in various other professions. You will learn to properly analyse linguistic, literary and media concepts and processes using a linguistic and textological approach and learn how to reflect on them in their historical and cultural contexts, while understanding their social relevance and their further development. The degree programme thus combines learning an equally broad and differentiated level of specialist and methodological knowledge with learning the first didactic teaching skills tailored to your future profession.
