Description
If you are studying German anywhere from the beginning of A2 until the end of B1, this course is for you!
How does a German 'complain himself'? What is the difference between 'kennen' and 'wissen'? Why do I need three different ways of expressing the subjunctive mood? And where do I place the word 'nicht'? These and many more questions will be answered in this course.
We will start off with an entry level test to make sure your A1-level is solid and can be built upon, as this course follows my A1 grammar course. Alternatively, you can check the A1 grammar course content list to see if you're covered.
You will then learn all the important German grammar points and more on an elementary to intermediate level (A2 to B1).
I will illustrate the grammar points with many real-life examples that are translated in-course, so you will be able to pick up quite a bit of vocabulary as well.
For each lecture, I added a pdf-sheet with the complete lecture content. There is also a pdf-worksheet attached to almost all lectures with exercises, and some of them contain additional information.
The German language levels concerning grammar (A1-B1) don't have a clear-cut curriculum. Some topics are typically taught on certain levels but depending on the course they might come up sooner or later. So if you switch courses, you might miss out on some material. To give you a better orientation, I added the levels to my course lectures in which the topic typically appears first.
Lecture (A2): usually comes up in level A2
Lecture (B1): usually comes up in level B1
Lecture (Plus): Not always covered in the common level-oriented curriculum
In my experience, the A2 topics are also of interest to intermediate learners because in common textbooks they are often brought up but not worked out in detail. Many learners go into the B1 level with a lot of A2-questions unanswered. That's why I included them - in detail, with hopefully all questions answered. And if you still have any questions, there's a Q&A, where you can find many answers or simply ask your individual questions.
I hope your learning experience will be splendid! And now let's get started - Los geht's!
Who this course is for:
- A2, B1 and B2 students - from advanced beginner up to higher intermediate.
- Higher intermediate and advanced learners who want to brush up on their grammar.
- Students who prefer to study in a structured manner.
- People who study German for work or university and need clear and precise information.
