MODERN WORLD LANGUAGES

Sixth Form Languages trip to Goldsmiths University

#

On

Friday, 14th February 2020, six year 12 and 13 languages students attended an intense Modern

World Languages A Level afternoon session at Goldsmiths University. Here is an account of one

student’s experience of the event:

‘Goldsmiths University was an amazing experience as both the year 12 and year 13 students were allowed

to travel by themselves and got to meet other students who had chosen languages as their A Level subjects.

As I was studying German A Level, I met students from different schools who also studied German for their

A Levels. Some had chosen it as an additional A Level whereas others had chosen it as their third A Level.

The trip was very educational. We were divided into two groups where we performed a drama act in German but watched

videos which helped us to communicate in German and express our opinions effectively. It was helpful because we

exchanged the techniques we had learnt in school and applied our knowledge to the given scenarios. To keep the

students engaged, the staff had brought a surprise of chocolates that would have been given to the winning team.

It was useful to compare what other students were learning at their schools and see the things we had in common

which made this experience exceptional. Studying a foreign language is vital for our global community. As

Nelson Mandela once said:

“If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him

in his language, that goes to his heart”.
