Embark on the journey to become an elementary school teacher in Kassel with Hessen International University! In the “Teacher Training at Elementary Schools” degree program, you will not only delve into the two essential subjects of Mathematics and German but also select a third teaching subject from our diverse array of offerings. Alongside these three teaching subjects, you will engage in the “Educational and Social Sciences Core Studies” sub-course, designed to equip you with valuable knowledge and skills in the realms of education, psychology, and the social sciences. A hands-on approach is central to our program, as practical school phases are integrated throughout. Following a five-week introductory internship in either the 2nd or 3rd semester, you will proceed to a comprehensive practical semester in the 4th or 5th semester. This practical semester will provide you with opportunities to conduct your initial teaching experiments and develop a systematic, scientific approach to reflecting on your role as a future educator. The program culminates with the First State Examination. Subsequently, you will have the chance to apply to a Studienseminar (teacher training seminar) for the pedagogical preparatory service, culminating in the attainment of the Second State Examination.
