Description
Welcome to my course!
The focus of this course is being able to understand German and express yourself in German on a beginner (A1) to elementary (A2) level in line with the CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages). We will cover all the vocabulary, grammar and phrases that you need. At the end of the course you will also get a personalized signed language certificate.
After an introductory section we will work with very simple sentences straight away, and then you will learn the German grammar along these sentences.
The lectures are mostly bite-sized and have visuals to help you remember all the new things you learn.
For each topic there are lectures that solely contain examples. You will also find practice lectures, quizzes, exercises (e.g. translations, sentence building) and downloadable material including vocabulary sheets, grammar overviews and additional exercises, which you can find by clicking on the 'Resources' buttons in the Course Overview on the right side of the video player.
Later into the course, you will find a complete collection of all A1 vocabulary additionally to the vocabulary in the lectures.
At the end of the course, you can check your progress by taking a big final test that covers the whole course content.
This course will greatly support you in taking your first steps in German, and eventually understand and speak the language.
All the best,
Your Course Instructor Esther
