German lessons offer you a fun and effective way to learn the most widely-spoken language in Europe. It’s also the most commonly used business language, so it can help you advance in your career. Plus, it has a rich literary heritage and many German words have come to be adopted by English.

In your German classes, you’ll cover the basics of grammar and vocabulary. For example, German nouns are inflected for gender, number, and case (nominative, accusative, genitive, and dative). Your instructor will help you understand these rules and build on them to form longer and more complex sentences.

You’ll also learn how to pronounce German words correctly. Some of the sounds are similar to English, but other vowels are pronounced differently and have double dots above them (called umlauts). These differences can seem intimidating at first, but with patience and daily practice, you’ll be pronouncing German correctly in no time.

During your German classes, you’ll be able to ask your teacher questions about what you don’t understand. In addition, you’ll be able to interact directly with your classmates just like you would in a traditional classroom setting. This will give you an insight into the current natural state of the language, as well as a chance to socialize with native speakers who can give you feedback on your pronunciation and inflection. All of this will help you feel more confident when speaking German in real-life situations.
