Who Use This Tourism GCSE German Listening Lesson And What’s Included?My GCSE German listening lesson comes with an authentic MP3 audio file voiced by a native German speaker. It also includes a verbatim transcript and five to six GCSE German activities across a two-page word document. The theme is holidaying in Germany and has been created, specifically to practise listening comprehension and develop topic-related vocabulary.

As well as listening comprehension questions, there is also a speaking and writing task. Both can be adapted with bullet points (if required) to fit with German GCSE level exam specifications. The intermediate level German listening lesson is perfect for individual work, as well as for pair work and small group work.
