German Lessons in Perth

As the most widely spoken language in Europe, German is a must-know whether you are traveling for work or play. With over 100 million speakers, German can be found in many countries across the globe. Due to its unique similarities to the English language, German has long been a top choice for native English speakers looking to expand their language skills. Germany is also home to one of the strongest economies on the globe as well as some of the most famous festivals in the world, making this a target language for business people and avid travelers alike.

In 2016, Population Australia showed that over a quarter of Australians were born overseas. And in Perth, the fourth-largest city in the country, 30% of its 2-million-strong population are immigrants. Foreign-born concentrations, especially Indians and Malaysians, are growing in the suburbs, while more Asians, including the Chinese, are moving into the city. In fact, Perth now rivals Melbourne and other multicultural Australian cities for its ethnic diversity. Just take a stroll around the city and you will go through Chinatown, Greektown, Little Portugal and a huge Punjabi market.  And while English is the de facto language spoken by over 70% of the city’s population, 20 different languages are spoken natively throughout the city (the most common ones being Mandarin, Arabic, Cantonese, Vietnamese, Italian, Korean and Japanese). Many of these people are privileged to be able to make the most of both their native culture and their adopted Australian one. Expand your own knowledge, experiences and opportunities, too, and start learning a foreign language today to connect with one (or more) of these communities.
