Requirements
- The course starts at zero. However, if you are not used to working autonomously and have no experience with language studying at all, this intensive course might pose a bit of a challenge.
Description
German from the start:
alphabet & letter pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, sentence building and phrases on an A1 level
explanations and many examples
reading & listening with texts on topics used in daily conversation: personal information, family, food, language learning, daily routine, home, city, work, doctor's visit, buying clothes and weather
Language skill improvement in line with the CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages)
What's special about this course:
All grammar explanations are in German, so you can train your listening.
There is on-screen English text to support your understanding (comprehensive and adapted speed and composition - no hectic clicking back and forth to catch the subtitles).
The explanations are compact and to the point and are supported by multiple examples, which also give you more options to expand your vocabulary and demonstrate how to use vocabulary and grammar in the context of spoken language.
Explanations and examples come with pictures, so you can tie what you learn to an image and remember it better.
For each explanation video in German, there is also a script with the German text, so you have both, the German and the English version.
The lectures has a pdf-script attached with the lecture presentation.
There are also exercises and quizzes for you to practice what you have learned, as well as a final test that covers the whole course content.
At the end of the course you will also get a personalized signed language certificate.

The focus of this course is on effectiveness and efficiency and therefore designed for people, who are serious about studying German systematically, for those who might need it for their university studies or their work, and also for "false beginners" who studied German in the past, basically forgot most of it and now want to give it another go.
The course content fully covers the required curriculum for language tests such as Goethe, telc and FIDE.
