Also to say at night(as in night course,am nacht is good grammar?)
Thanks

Need help translating short phrase for CV - Germany
Saying "Currently learning German" (in Lebenslauf)
Technically it would be correct to say "Ich lerne jetzt Deutsch". Please note the standard word order in German demands the time between verb and object.
In a CV I´d use the expression "Zur Zeit belege ich einen Deutschkurs in einer Abendschule"
Abendschule=night school
The German "Nacht" usually starts later than the English "night" So we say "Nacht" for times after 10 or 11 pm. Before it´s "Abend"
am Morgen - in the morning
am Nachmittag - in the afternoon
am Abend - in the evening
but:
in der Nacht - at night
Both English and German change prepositions for night/Nacht. As you can see the article is used opposite.
