DEFinally some help and things that made sense!! Hello, I moved to German about a year ago. I have been doing Duolingo for a number of years and also have been in a full time intensive German course (5 days a week, 4 hours a day) to get to B1. I have been so frustrated with my progress and trying to understand how things fit together. There didn't seems to be any systems or strategies that I could find to help. I felt is was "you just need to learn through memory and repetition. I was very disheartened. Then I came across Laura's free introduction models. I did them I finally felt I had someone to help! That could break it down into bite size learning, that could give me some tools and structure to help. I can't recommend Laura's course more highly. I am half way through the Foundations course and am looking forward the next course. Thank you Laura.

GBEssential to learning the German language Two years into German on Duolingo, I've learned a lot but am constantly aware of the need to understand German grammar. You can get through Duolingo without understanding the rules of a language but you will be severely limited in your ability to understand and speak the language. German with Laura provides that missing, vital element in a clear, logical, easy to follow manner. I'm a bit more than 25% o the way through her German Foundations 1 course and it is proving to be well worth the price. Laura is an excellent teacher and the course is very well designed and presented.

GBThe course has been helpful… Four stars because I have not yet finished the course. I would say it is a helpful course and better than trying to hobble together the information from different sources. Very good helping with basic gramme as unlike Europeans the UK education system (or the bit that taught me) ignored grammar. Try the free courses Laura does and if you like her style - I did - go for it. But remember there is no magic bullet

GBGerman Foundations should be the go-to method German Foundations is a life saver! Laura's methodology has made German grammar MUCH easier to understand and drastically reduces the amount of memorization needed. I still have a lot of work to do to recall everything on the fly, but this course receives a well-earned recommendation from me.

GBA step-change in learning German! I studied German in high school and have tried picking it up on and off again over the last twenty years without much success - until now. For the first time, I have started to understand the rules behind the grammar, instead of just trying to memorise set combinations. I’ve loved this course and feel really like it’s been a step-change in my learning. I don‘t know why it isn‘t taught this way all the time!
