| Title | German for Hire: Bring a German into Your Classroom |
| Body | Hey, Northern California teachers! Need a German in your classroom? The Goethe-Institut San Francisco wants to help you out with their new program, German for Hire. German for Hire brings together students from Germany enrolled at an American university and American high school students curious about modern-day Germany. In 2007 the Deutsch-Amerikanisches Institut (DAI) in Tübingen (Germany) launched Rent an American. The program matches American students enrolled in study-abroad programs in Germany with local classrooms focusing on the United States in their curricula. The program has proven so popular with students and teachers alike that by now hundreds of American students from all over Germany’s southwest have visited classrooms to talk about topics ranging from climate change to baseball and "The Simpsons". The Rent an American concept is now coming to the United States. The Goethe-Institut San Francisco, in close collaboration with the Deutsch-Amerikanisches Institut, invites college students from Germany and teachers in the U.S. to make German for Hire just as successful as its German counterpart. Following a pilot phase in Northern California, German for Hire will be expanded to other regions. Learn more about German for Hire at http://www.goethe.de/ins/us/saf/prj/gfh/enindex.htm |
