The largest German waves of immigration into Australia took place in the middle to the late 19th century and again before the middle of the 1900s. Many came because of religious persecution back home or because of a desire to improve their economic circumstances. Today, Canberra, Australia's capital and one of the country's largest cities, is home to a population of 410,000 people, with the 2011 census revealing that 8,988 of them are German nationals, out of the 898,700 currently living in Australia. The German influence in the city, then, is quite prevalent and remarkable. If you would like to explore the many themed festivals organised in Canberra, connect with the German-speaking community on a more intimate level or even find an international job, then learning German with us at Language Trainers will certainly be of help. Let’s get started today!

Why Study German in Canberra

For Work and Travel: Taking German lessons in Canberra can help you get a new bilingual job in the city, and there are plenty of job opportunities available at German companies, especially with the bilateral trade agreements between Australia and Germany valued at approximately A$20.6 billion dollars each year. Also, Australia imports many German products, such as cars, digital equipment, food and, of course, German beer, so local jobs are available in all of these industries. If you are interested in networking with German and Austrian entrepreneurs, you can contact the German-Australian Chamber of Industry and Commerce (Canberra Delegation). It organises a programme every October which focuses on energy and trade policy. Impress the German attendees with the language skills you learn with us! And if you are interested in travelling, you will be happy to know that there are daily direct flights to Frankfurt. Take advantage of this chance to further improve your language skills in Germany or other German-speaking countries!

For Culture & Tourism: Enrolling in German classes in Canberra is also a great way to get familiar with the cultural aspects this community has shared with the city. If you would like to enjoy German music, for example, you can visit the Harmonie German Club of Canberra on Jerrabomberra Avenue, a social club founded in the 1960s. It showcases many local, interstate and international artists regularly. Sing along to the songs using the pronunciation you acquire with us at Language Trainers. But if your true motivation to learn German is for tourism, then you are in luck! You have plenty of options to travel from Canberra to Germany as a tourist and start using your new language skills to communicate with native and non-native speakers alike!

For Social: if you are looking to make new friends with a similar passion for the German language and culture as yourself, then why don’t you join the Canberra German Language Meetup group? You will be able to meet some locals in a social group where you can practise your German while getting to know new people and have some fun. Don't worry if your grammar and pronunciation are perfect; just go and have a casual, relaxing chat! They usually meet at German restaurants in the city, such as Zierholz on Kembla Street, where you can order schnitzels, reibekuchen and delicious apple strudel. Imagine ordering those dishes in German!
