Deutsch lernen in Zürich: Ein freundlicher Leitfaden für Neuankömmlinge
Moving to a new city can be both exciting and daunting, especially when you're trying to learn a new language. Zurich, with its rich culture and vibrant community, offers numerous opportunities to practice German in a fun and social setting. One of the best ways to immerse yourself in the language is by joining a Sprach-Café, where you can meet new people and improve your German skills over a cup of coffee. Let me share my journey and some of the wonderful Sprach-Cafés you can find around Zurich!
A year ago, my husband and I moved to Zurich. One day, while strolling through the beautiful Rieterpark, we were captivated by the park's forest-like ambiance. Curious about its history, we discovered that the same architect who designed Rieterpark also designed the Church of Enge. Intrigued, we decided to explore the church, and that's when I stumbled upon the Sprach-Café offered by Zytlos, a café run by the Church of Enge.
I decided to give it a try, and to my surprise, I was the only participant that day, which meant I had a one-on-one session with the teacher! This incredible experience inspired me to explore more Sprach-Cafés in Zurich and share them with you. Here's a list of some fantastic, free Sprach-Cafés where you can practice German without the need for prior registration.
