Teach AboutUS

TeachAboutUS is an intercultural online learning platform for use in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) and science classrooms in Germany. It is the product of an ongoing, multi-year partnership among the U.S. Embassy in Berlin, Leuphana University Lüneburg, and the LIFE non-profit organization with support from our U.S.-based partner, the Transatlantic Outreach Program (TOP) in Washington D.C. Local partners include the Friedrich Ebert Foundation Berlin, the Berlin Senate Department for Education, Youth, and Research; the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK); and the North Rhine-Westphalia Ministry for Schools and Further Education.

Meet US

What is the American Dream? How does the U.S. election system work? What does a typical school day in the U.S. look like?

The Alumni Initiative

The U.S. Embassy in Berlin and Consulates in Düsseldorf, Frankfurt, Hamburg, Leipzig, and Munich sponsor a variety of international exchange programs each year, in conjunction with the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA). These exchanges are designed to enhance mutual understanding between the people of the U.S. and Germany. The Department of State is committed to supporting alumni by providing resources that will help them to build upon their exchange experience.

Exchange Programs

The Exchanges Section of the Public Affairs Department at the U.S. Embassy Berlin sponsors and facilitates a wide range of educational and cultural programs, thus engaging German audiences in dialogue about the U.S. in Germany, and encouraging them to seek professional, educational, and social experiences in the U.S.

USA for You
