Resources-for-german.com

At resources-for-german.com you find various materials to teach and study German. It is primarily aimed at teachers and students in third-level education, but post-primary teachers and pupils can also find useful materials here starting at CEFR level A2. Besides annotated link lists on various topics, there are also “ready-to-go” materials for the classroom. Furthermore, students will find additional exercises and tests in the self-study area. All materials are organised by topic and level according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages and are freely available. 

The website was created as part of the DAAD-funded project of the Centre for Irish-German Studies Exploring the past, enhancing the current position, and working towards 250 years of German Studies in Ireland, 2022-2024, which is led by Professor Gisela Holfter (CIGS, University of Limerick), recent and current presidents of the GSAI (Dr Joseph Twist, UCD; Associate Professor Marieke Krajenbrink, UL; Dr Linda Shortt, MU and Associate Professor Michaela Schrage-Früh, UG), and the project’s Research Assistant Natascha Guggi (UL).

The website is now further expanded thanks to one of the four strands of the 2025-2027 DAAD-funded project of the Centre for Irish-German Studies (“Irish-German Studies and its many facets: research, dialogue and promotion to enhance German Studies in Ireland in a European context”) with everybody still on board and with more colleagues (including Dr Anita Barmettler, Orla Prendergast, Associate Professor Veronica O’Regan and Marah Moloney Weissbrich) involved in this part.

It was made possible through the support and dedication of the Centre for Irish-German Studies, the German Academic Exchange Service and the German Studies Association Ireland and we would like to use this space to introduce you to all three organisations.
