Welcome to Time for German – where children learn German with energy and confidence.
Our group classes are specially designed for children aged 7 to 12. They are fast-paced, interactive, and full of fun, with every child actively speaking German from the very first lesson.
Through engaging activities, quizzes, games, and interactive practice, children quickly remember key vocabulary, build sentences naturally, and gain the confidence to communicate in a new language.
My First Year of German course includes over 50 lessons, taking learners from complete beginner to pre-intermediate level. More importantly, they have lots of fun along the way and develop a genuine love of language learning. Lesson documents and activities will be provided in advance of every lesson and students will even have access to Lingopie and my Time for German Duolingo classroom. The Second Year of German course then builds on this foundation, bringing the total to over 100 lessons and guiding children steadily toward B1 level.
As a former class teacher of 6-, 7- and 8-year-olds, and a co-operative learning specialist and school lead, I have spent years selecting and refining the very best strategies and techniques for teaching beginners German. The result is a truly unique scheme of work that makes lessons engaging, enjoyable, and highly effective. Along the way, children interact with familiar and exciting characters such as Hansel and Gretel, cheeky Frechel, Rapunzel, the Frog Prince, Sleeping Beauty, Rumpelstiltskin, and even a few friendly aliens. This isn’t just about teaching words – it’s about sparking curiosity, capturing imagination, and helping children grow into confident young German speakers.
Please feel free to explore the free resources on my website. Many of these were created over ten years ago and have since been refined, updated, and transformed into the lessons that form my current Time for German courses.
Hear from Our Students...
Sean is the absolute best! Incredible instructor with his own amazing German curriculum. My son began with zero knowledge of the German language, and has advanced from 101 to 102, and now to 103. He loves Sean's classes and loves using his German words and sentences around the house! Thank you Sean! 
We enjoy Sean Sullivan's enthusiasm and his energetic and fun teaching style. His class is a great way to become comfortable with speaking German as well as learning new vocabulary. Thank you! Upcoming 'First Year of German' Courses:
