Here are the YouTube channels that have done small miracles for my students:

Make the green owl your best buddy

Believe it or not, when Duolingo says that "Users that are active in streaks of more than 14 days have better chances in finishing a course" - they are not lying.

Plus it's free.

Consistency is key in language learning. Short but regular practice sessions are often more effective than longer, more demanding ones. By dedicating just 15 minutes daily to German, you're building a sustainable habit that can lead to impressive results over time.

The brain is a muscle - here are the best pages with online exercises

german.net

mein-deutschbuch.de

Goethe Institut

learngerman.dw.com

On all of these pages, you can practice German and get explanations for every single question that you might have.


On hueber.de you can find many course books and helpful materials. Some are free, but on this website, most of them come with a charge. For the courses that I offer, I use the Menschen edition.

Last but most significant!

FIND A NATIVE SPEAKER TO PRACTICE WITH THEM... This is the most important thing that you can do for your language skills. Having a real conversation with a native person is the most impactful practice. You will be in a real-life situation, without a safety net. That will have a great impact on your brain and the language will sink in instantly. Plus you will learn the natural form of the language, which is priceless.

Make a schedule - stay consistent

The first question now is: When? On your next ride to work make a plan, when will you be able to fit 15-30 minutes for practicing?

Remember, the key to success is consistency. Start your 15-minute German learning routine today and watch your skills improve over time!
