Learn German from a native speaker!
Practice speaking, writing, listening and reading in my comprehensive German language course for serious learners!
This is a full course package of German language lessons that will lead to a spoken and written command of German at level A1. According to official data from Goethe Institute, a student acquires A1 competence after approx. 60-80 active learning hours. This series presents you with everything you need to know to reach that level by investing only a few hours of attentive study time per week. I advise to work through each lesson about 2-3 times for optimal learning results and sufficient exposure to the language.
This course teaches you:
- how to read, write, listen and speak confidently in German
- German grammar skills on level A1
- German vocabulary on level A1
- clear Standard German pronunciation
- practice of common German sentence patterns
- targeted grammar and vocabulary exercises using the downloadable worksheet
My teaching method is centered around language patterns instead of isolated items of grammar or vocabulary. Each pattern is repeated, modified and expanded on as you proceed through the lessons. This way, you will be able to intuitively acquire natural speech with a clear standard German dialect. Weekly packages divide the content up into digestible chunks to help you study on a regular, consistent basis. Make studying German your daily habit and you will be amazed about the speed of your progress!
