It covers all four basic skills: speaking, listening, reading and writing, and you can enjoy the freedom and flexibility to learn at your own pace. Grammar and vocabulary are taught through texts and dialogues based on everyday situations ranging from talking about interests and hobbies, daily routines to ordering food in a restaurant and making a doctor’s appointment. “This German course was great on many levels. It really outlines the basics and builds a solid foundation. Things are explained and taught in a simple and clear format. The progression is also very encouraging because one continues to build on previous lessons. I highly recommend this course!” – Peter Hamon Start forming sentences after the very first lesson The language is approached in a functional and communicative way so that you can easily use what you have learned to communicate in German effectively. I have kept the grammatical explanations as simple and user-friendly as possible to allow you to progress at a steady pace but at the same time build up a sound understanding of how the language works and so build up your confidence.”I love the approach the teacher uses. It’s all about immediate immersion in to full sentences, then he breaks down the parts of the sentences. He also encourages you to get out of the course to online forums and apps that will help build your vocabulary and connect you with native speakers. It’s really great and totally worth the $!” – Levi BaadeDevelop your skills even further”German Made Simple” is part of a well thought-out language learning concept, so if you’d like to develop your skills even further after you finish this course, I’ve got you covered.
