You have already made first experiences in teaching foreign languages online? Lesson planning, an action-oriented approach and collaborative work are not just empty phrases for you? You are familiar with several apps and tools that can be used in online teaching, but sometimes you wonder if less is more?

You would like to expand your competencies as an online language trainer and have them documented? Then mint and our Six Steps to Online Teaching series are suitable for you.

In 6 consecutive modules, you will work in a small group to develop profound basic competencies for designing your language teaching in online, blended or hybrid scenarios in a meaningful, lively, interactive and action-oriented way, while responding to the needs of the learners in the best possible manner. The individual sessions are designed to be interactive. Regular attendance, active involvement and thorough follow-up are prerequisites for successful participation in the seminar series and receipt of the certificate of completion.

Your two instructors are experienced online trainers who have been teaching (not only) virtually for several years and regularly qualify teachers worldwide. You can watch a first topic-related introduction by Olga Godoy here.

If you are interested in signing up and would first like to get a more detailed assessment of your current digital competence, we recommend using the DigCompEdu Check-In offer: This way, you can easily test your personal level of knowledge free of charge. Our seminar series is suitable for everyone who reaches at least level B1 in this self-test.
We also provide a small quiz including an answer section for further self-assessment.

The seminar series is aimed at teachers of foreign languages in general - not exclusively in the field of German as a foreign language. The language of instruction is German. Thus, German language skills on the minimum level B2 according to the CEFR are required.

The detailed seminar schedule of your preferred run can be opened by clicking on the link in the upper part of this webpage. All times refer to German time (Central European Time). Technical requirements for participation are stable internet, a PC, laptop or tablet, a camera and a microphone (we recommend using a headset).
