GBI started German foundations 1 and… I started German foundations 1 and finished with a wealth of knowledge. Now taking German Foundations 2, and wow is it so worth it. The teaching style is really second to none. Laura is such an awesome teacher. I would recommend these course to anyone wanting to start this journey, its simple to get started, and the course literature is even free for downloading, or they offer all the books at a ridiculous low price. The support that is given is so wonderful, it makes you feel like your learning with a family.

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.

CHExceptionally smart approach Exceptionally smart approach, Laura's creative hierarchical charts: Gender Hierarchy, Plural Pathways, All-in-One Declensions etc, make logical sense of German grammar, which is an incredible breakthrough for me... no more guess work! Laura's teaching style is very intelligent and fun. My understanding of German has taken a giant leap forward and I am very excited! Thank you Laura!

DEAmazing course! Amazing course! Best language teacher I've had so far. Breaks down every concept perfectly and does so in a way that I feel excited not only to keep studying German, but also use similar methods to learn more languages. Thanks!

GBSo far, so GREAT! Be aware I have only just started the course [module 1] but am loving the clear and methodical approach which has already gone a long way to demystify the noun gender issue. Great exercises to test my comprehension. Also impressed with the "Discussion" option. Answers are always received very promptly with bags of encouragement. I didn't quite see enough information about how far this course will take me. I was sucked in by the free "unblocking" course but ,after doing that, I was confident enough to take a punt and pay for "Foundations1" and haven't regretted it. Some reviews say it's expensive but I think it stands up well against other paid courses. Having run into the buffers with Duolingo after a 6 month long daily session [great to start with] I concluded I needed to get to grips with the grammar [absent on Duo] before I could get further benefit from a free app learning system. Anyway, Laura is fun. I hope I don't have to invest in too many courses before I can return to a free "immersive" system. After all, I am learning this language recreationally, because most of my holidays are in Germany/Austria/Switzerland and would like to "make the effort" I don't aspire one of those Brits. who just shout slowly and loudly in English.
