Description
Hallo German learner!
My name is Sandra and I will be your guide through the secrets of the German language. Welcome to the full starter kit of the German language for total beginners!
This course is for you if:
- You are a complete beginner and don’t know any German at all
- You want short and straight to the point lessons
- You need a lot of exercises, repetition and motivation to stay on track
- You want assignments where you can get personalized feedback and guidance
- You want to pass a German language exam (Like the Goethe exam for example)
- You want it to be fun!
How does it work?
This course is constructed like my one-on-one beginner German lessons I usually have with my students in real life. There are 7 units, each one with a specific theme. Each unit has between 10 and 15 individual lessons, most of them being under 5 minutes. Everything is split up into bite-size pieces.
You get a lot of useful vocabulary, example sentences, real-life dialogue and grammar delivered in an easy to understand and not too overwhelming way.
After every lesson, you will have an Übung, meaning exercise. This way you can practice your new knowledge right away.
There are also regular Assignments, where you will get feedback and guidance from me so you know what you need to repeat or look out for.
What will you learn?
- How to introduce yourself and meet and greet people
- Say where you live, where you are from and describe your home
- Talk about your family, whether you are married and have kids
- Describe your hobbies and where you spend your holidays
- Chit - chat about the weather or ask someone how's it going
- Order food at a restaurant or buy groceries at the store
- Use the present and past tense of regular and irregular verbs
- Fill out a registration form or write a professional e-mail
- And much much more!
Language level
- This is a A1.1 course, which means it's the first German course in the series
- If you want to continue learning German after finishing this one, check out my A1.2 course that you can find on my instructor profile
- These two courses together (A1.1 + A1.2) cover everything you need to learn to take the Goethe A1 or a similar exam - and actually a lot of my students have already successfully taken the exams and passed with flying colors!
If you have any other questions, feel free to contact me before buying!
See you in the course! :)
Who this course is for:
- Anyone who wants to start learning German or wants to repeat the basics

Hallo, I am Sandra, teacher of German as a foreign language, trying to make it not foreign anymore for a wide range of students. In the last eight years, I have taught elementary and high school students as well as adults, from beginner courses to advanced and business courses. But my biggest love is teaching online and changing the lives of students all around the world.
My greatest hope is to make learning as fun and pleasurable as playing your favorite game, and as easy as chatting with your best friend. I know it can be done and I am still exploring all the possible ways to achieve it :)
Why '11Percent'?
The common urban legend says that people only use around 10% of their brains. The ten percent myth most likely arose from a misunderstanding of neurological research in the late 19th century.
At the same time, science proved that learning a new language improves your brain functions and memory abilities. Learning a language rewires your brain and literally makes it grow bigger.
So by combining myth and science, I hope that after learning German, your brain will function at least on 11 percent :)
