German Club

  • The German Club offers UHM faculty, students and staff a chance to explore German culture, through a regular Kaffeestunde, German Film Series and Stammtisch, as well as occasional excursions to film festivals, exhibits or operas.
  • For more information, contact Anna Hawajska-Waters: hawajska@hawaii.edu
  • Follow the German Club on Facebook: Der Deutschklub – UH

Tutors and Translators

Students enrolled in German classes should see their instructor(s) with any questions during office hours, or arrange a time to meet the instructor(s) by appointment. There is no charge for occasional help related to work assigned in our German courses. Peer tutoring is also available at Kaffeestunde.

Paid tutoring is available for students not enrolled in German classes and for members of the community. Terms must be negotiated with the individual providing the service. Rates vary according to task and the availability of services is not guaranteed. The German program and the University of Hawai’i are in no way responsible for these arrangements or for customer satisfaction with the services.
