Berks History Center is pleased to continue offering in-person and online classes that explore the language and culture of the Pennsylvania Dutch.

Enrolling in a Pennsylvania Dutch class at the Berks History Center offers a fun opportunity for students to enjoy the fellowship of other Pennsylvania Dutch enthusiasts, but more importantly, it allows an opportunity to celebrate and preserve this rich cultural heritage.

During the spring of 2024, the Berks History Center will offer both online and in-person classes, and we will offer three different course levels. All classes will be eight weeks in length. Classes cost $70 for BHC members (Individual Level Members and above) and $140 for non-members. Participants can become a BHC member by signing up online at https://www.berkshistory.org/membership/.

Our advanced course builds upon its predecessor, continuing the deep dive into grammar and vocabulary, and covering chapters 7-12 of the textbook Schwetz Mol Deitch by Douglas Madenford and Joshua Brown. Similar to the intermediate level, this eight-week course will include two weeks for practice and review. Students are strongly encouraged to take the intermediate course prior to the advanced level, since the two are closely connected. Students are required to purchase this textbook on their own.
