German with LauraReviews of germanwithlaura.com

Just finished German Foundations 1, and I feel so empowered. I'm astounded at what I've learned in this course. I'm even more astounded at the ease with which I've learned it. Laura breaks this info down into "bite-sized chunks" that are so easy to take in and understand! She's also super encouraging, and she makes the course fun. I almost feel as if I were taking this class in person. The provided course materials are first rate, as well; they will be a welcome resource for years to come! I'm super excited to begin GF2! Learning German has always been on my "to do" list, and I feel as though I'm definitely on my way to crossing that entry off as "done"! Thank you Laura!

LOVE how Laura simplifies the learning of difficult elements of German grammar! I also love that Laura is upfront about the fact that learning German (as with any foreign language acquisition) requires students to “do the work”. The promise of becoming “fluent in 3 months” isn’t very realistic IMHO, and I much prefer to lay a solid foundation upon which to build, as can be done with Laura’s German Foundations course and German Foundations ll.

I am in the midst of Laura's German Foundations Two. It is well worth the price of admission. I personally find some of the fine points of German grammar to be difficult, but on her videos Laura discusses them clearly with examples, as well as practice exercises. The great thing is you can watch each video as often as you want to aid in your understanding, and questions you submit are promptly answered. The Resource Guide book, with its charts and shortcuts, is awesome.

After watching Laura's YouTube videos about 1.5 years ago, I realized her approach was the only way I would ever be able to learn German and I purchased her original foundations course. It was great then and has been updated with improvements since I joined. Even with all the information Laura has on YouTube for free, the course was extremely worth it. I actually don't know how it's possible to learn German without the rule simplifications she teaches. I now apply this foundational knowledge to every other learning approach I use, and honestly think doing Laura's class first has made my other studying at least 4x more effective. That's important because I'm not immersed and have limited time. I can now communicate in many basic situations, which is amazing compared to where I started. All in all this was a highly worthwhile investment!

I have been trying to learn German for years, and tried so many different online language courses/apps, you name it, I tried it! and spent a small fortune in the process. This has been the only course that has worked and made any sense at all. I learnt more in a few lessons, than I have in years using other learning methods. So much effort has been put into the course, and the course materials. I would definitely recommend anyone who was stuck like me and about to give up, to try this course.

Excellent course that offers more bang for your buck then any other course i have participated in. i am a British guy who has come to germany to study German in a German intergration method but found the teachers just give you lots of exercises and expect you to automatically grasp the complex German language structure on your own, this left me overwhemingly confused. After doing this course with laura she explains allthe whys and gives you a firm set of tools as a foundation that turned everything around for me, I feel a lot more confident after doing this course. Highly recommended! Even if you habve a high level each section with give you eye opening AHA moments, its really satisfying. Go for it! Get the course!

It was a good course!

I've tried many other ways of trying to get my head around German grammar and didn't get there. Laura's methods really work for me!
