German courses: our principles
No matter which German course you choose: we stick to a few basic principles, which you will quickly find out if you download a preview of our German textbook, for example.
- German courses should be fun. Contrary to the usual language school marketing poetry, we don’t even try to talk you into nonsense like “learn German in three months”. Learning a language is hard work, but why should hard word not be fun? That’s why our German courses are based on a coherent story.
- We put a lot of emphasis on pronunciation. In our German online course you’ll get plenty of tips on practicing proper pronunciation. There are also free pronunciation videos for our German textbook.
- Grammar is a tool – nothing more, but nothing less. We won’t drown you in grammar rules before you can even say your first complete sentence in German. But we don’t have a grammar phobia either (and if you do, we’ll train you out of it …).
