German for BeginnersDiploma Course

The course begins by guiding you through your first steps in the German language. You will learn how to read, introduce yourself, tell others what you want in the most basic and simple way and express yourself with only a handful of words.
 
Through our word-to-word translations, you’ll become familiar with German sentence structure and learn how to ask questions. You’ll increase your conversational options as you expand your vocabulary with words such as "no", “but” and “because” and be able to talk about people and things without constantly repeating their names, as you learn pronouns, including “yours”, “mine”, “you” and “me”.
 
You’ll get a clear overview of the German case system and learn phrases that will help you to master it and learn how to address people formally and understand what it means to offer someone the “Du”.
 
In addition to talking in the present tense, you’ll learn to talk about the past and future. We’ll cover the two main past forms in German and how to talk about how your day was. While talking in future tense is relatively easy, there are some complications, which we’ll guide you through. We’ll give you phrases to study and make sure that you can talk about your future plans with ease.
 
As with other languages, German has some peculiarities. We’ll look at how to make your own personal words and find out why some German verbs are “separable” and others “inseparable”.
 
The course concludes with a look at numbers, as you learn how to talk about the time and understand prices.
