For 99% of German learners there is no way around having a professional guide. But a guide is just a guide, the actual tandembörse still has to be done by you. But there is an incredible way to reduce your daily tandembörse and to learn much more in a very short time: conscious listening. There is no such thing tandembörse passive learning I have been researching ways to learn things faster for over 20 years now and have come across all possible promises. And none, I repeat, none has been kept. One of the most dangerous beliefs out there is the belief that you can learn a language by merely listening to it while you are doing other things. Tandembörse who promote that kind of behavior call it: passive listening. Tandembörse claim that like that you simulate a stay abroad during which you would be surrounded constantly by the language that you are about to learn. I have very serious doubts about these claims. That enables you to understand different tandembörse or dialects in your tandembörse language and makes perfect sense. You have built a very efficient noise-filter for the sounds that you are usually exposed to. Now comes along the German language e. It is out of your listening range. Any tandembörse I would say to you would always be filtered through your English noise-filter. You will get the idea of what I say because tandembörse brain is actually a very powerful understanding machine, but you will not be able to hear the exact sounds that I have been using. The bad news is, unless you are a musician or grew up with several languages and therefore having a broader register of sounds that you are able to recognize, you will never be able to hear proper German. Your brain is incredibly capable of understanding and imitating spoken language. All you have got to do is to recalibrate your noise-filter in your brain and imitate the new sounds. But this recalibration needs your full attention. It is tandembörse going to happen on its own by simply exposing you to the German language. As I have mentioned before. Give it a try on one of the pages or with any of the apps in the link section below. It is extremely helpful if you do them right. But that is stuff for another post. Over 80 dictations sorted by their difficulty from A1 to B2. An app made for German kids Then there is an app for advanced students as it was written for German kids learning German in regular school. But it will teach anyone how to write properly. The only disadvantage is that you can not print out the tandembörse and learning the vocabulary becomes a bit painful. But if you are after your B1 exam, you might want to go for it. Let me know in case you find something. The Slowgerman podcast And last but not least, partially for free: The click the title to come to their homepage. Plenty of interesting German culture related texts spoken slowly but not too slow with a clear and nice voice by Annik, the blog-host. This is more than enough material to get started. Stay tuned until tomorrow for the last part of this series on how to master the German language in three steps. There will be an instruction tandembörse how to work efficiently with dictations by the end of this week. Thanks for reading this far. Of course there are many influences like talent, age, intelligence, experience just to name a few. But in general after more than ten years I can say that one can come very far with mere discipline and structure. After all the majority of us have already learned a language successfully so why should learning a second language cause problems. If you let someone guide you who is just out to make some easy money, you are going to end up with crippled German that will make you feel bad for the rest of your life. You only have one chance to get it right. It is an incredibly painful struggle to correct bad German and in most cases an endeavor doomed to fail. Good work costs good money People charging a solid hourly rate are either smart frauds or people who know what professional guidance is worth. A fraud you can tandembörse discover after a few tandembörse but Tandembörse will tandembörse go into detail here. I will write a discover frauds guide these days. To make sure you get a good tutor you might simply go to accredited and certified schools. It is a waste of money. A professional will have to pay taxes, insurances and taxes and her rent. To give you an estimate: I pay 1. I would have to work over 100. The best Teachers teach from their own Experience A very good tutor why should you look for less for such an important task. She should also be able to explain the German grammar in English. If she tries to teach you without grammar, run away. That is esoterical bs from the sixties and scientifically unacceptable. To give you an idea of the usual duration in a class with 10-20 students: -B1 takes six months with 3h daily instructions and 1. ~360 lessons You can calculate with half of this when studying with a private German tutor. Learning German is an emotional and intimate process And above all: You will have to like her. Learning a new language is tandembörse intimate. You will sound stupid and imbecile trying to express yourself in a language that you are yet lacking the words for. That is totally fine but requires a trustful environment. If you are ashamed to speak right from the beginning it will take you much much longer to get established in the German language than if you learned with tandembörse who creates a supportive and motivating atmosphere. Tandembörse is it for today. Let me summarize the criteria to pay tandembörse to when looking for the best German tutor available. Read on to find out how to get in touch with Germans. We all start a new language like this. And you have my absolute compassion and support. I guess you understand what I am aiming at. I did that, too, before and if you like it, go for it. There is nothing fundamentally wrong with it. And also half of the time would be speaking in your mother tongue and tandembörse lost for you while the other half is lost to the other person. There are a few other flaws that I would like you to consider: Tandems are boring Conversation needs common interests. Simply wanting to learn a language is too little exciting to hold a relationship on an interesting level for a longer period of time. I once had a Turkish-German tandem tandembörse she was only interested in Turkish soap operas, tennis and complaining about the bad weather in Germany. For a tandem to be efficient you would have to meet at least 2 to 3 times a week. Tandems are not for free Then there is the time and money you will need you would have to meet somewhere and most likely spend half an hour going there and another half hour going back. So assuming you meet for about an hour -plus 15 minutes not to end the conversation abruptely- a tandem meeting would take you 2 hours and 15minutes. Also what level you think you tandembörse to be to be able to tandembörse a conversation. Or are you going to ab use your tandem as a teacher. Is that his or her special skill then. Having a bad teacher is worse than having none, unless you try to learn all by yourself without really tandembörse how. Anything below that is a strain for all who take part in it. Tandems require a lot of discipline Not only needs the speaking time to be under control but also switching between languages has to be kept to a minimum. And after an exhausting workday, keeping your appointment with a tandem is much tandembörse difficult than with a professional that charges you for his or her time. Also the professional has a better ear for what needs to be worked on and should have the appropriate material for you at hand to work it out. So what are the alternatives, then. We have a saying in Germany and I can only state its validity when it comes down to German learning: Was nichts kostet ist nichts wert. Pay someone to listen to your still broken German and make them tell you when you make a mistake. And you shall become aware of things you tandembörse wrongly repeatedly and look them up later on. These might not be the most experienced ones but they might be motivated to become one of these. And they are interested tandembörse improving their skills as teachers. And remember the costs for the drinks. Also these session could take place via Skype and you would also save the way time. On the next page you will find several links that will help you to find a practice partner. Tandembörse you should try to arrange shorter meetings with your paid tandembörse your German tandem partner. That is not only way more efficient, costs a lot less in case you chose the paid option but also tandembörse and keeps the meetings more interesting. Anyone willing to talk and correct your German every now and then will do. Natives are a must though. You might want to take a look at the following platforms and let us know about your experience one day. Palabea Intercambio Zems of the Technical University Berlin That should do for the beginning. I wish you success and tandembörse you find a way to practice and improve your German quickly and satisfyingly. The consequences are an immense setback in learning speed and a significant increase in tandembörse. This most likely causes many students to give up on learning German prematurely and increases the costs until a noteworthy language level is reached. Let me explain what happens when you learn a new language and why I tandembörse the above strategy used by -mostly likely- any language school here in Germany; Berlitz with being the most prominent one, but also Goethe, Inlingua and the Volkshochschule teach solely based on German as the language of instruction. Unfortunately we are not born with German language skills in specific so we would have to acquire it like anything else: by tandembörse it to something that we already know. Because at that time when this hurtful idea gained currency, people believed in behaviorism, a theory that led to tandembörse consequence, that certain people believed learning a language can be achieved by drilling patterns and repetition and that motivation can be heightened by reinforcing correct answers with praise. Understanding through conclusion or explanation played a subordinate role for these people. Now, how does one reach understanding without understanding a thing. They even have their own picturebooks for this. The reflection about grammar is being discouraged by most representatives tandembörse this approach. What am I paying for again. Writing during the lesson is not encouraged though, neither the use of dictionaries. I could go on sigh. This reminds me of Waldorf-pedagogy, where it is assumed that the young child should learn through imitation rather than conclusion. It is needless to say that the latter is by far outmatching the former when tandembörse comes to efficiency. You might see that this approach requires learning material reduced to very tiny steps and of such simplicity that the topics that students have to work through for months. While it is clear that Goethe is not a lecture suitable for a beginner of German, sentences like tandembörse Tisch ist groß. Interim Conclusion We all have a natural desire to fully express ourselves. And one of the greatest and most valuable ressources is the mother tongue. That we anyhow always refer to, even if the instructions are ignoring it. We are not children anymore. And even they need 10-13 years to become very proficient in a language. As an adult I can tandembörse much faster and more efficient than a child. The only way to learn German very quickly is having a teacher who besides some learning techniques explains the German structure to you by showing you where it resembles your mother tongue and not by letting you guess the obvious, slowly and painfully. The downside to democracy So why is it then that in -most likely- all language schools in Germany, German is taught in German. Well, if I put together 20 students from all over the world, with 20 different educational backgrounds and 20 different goals etc. I will have to speak the only language that tandembörse all have in common: German. That makes it the most democratic teaching method of all times. Everybody is starting at zero language wise. Do the math and be amazed. Then there is the teacher. He or she would have to speak at least advanced English to instruct you properly on how to learn German. Tandembörse while having to talk only in German on the one hand seems very convenient for a German teacher and widens the range of possible employees for the schools, on the other hand it requires very good teaching skills and a solid self-esteem from them or all those clueless faces in front of them will wear them out sooner or later. Most of my former colleagues were burned out or at least very close to it. I myself burned out last year partly due to these circumstances and I consider my teaching skills to be on expert level. But I will share my burnout experience that led to my professional liberation in another post with you link follows. I think I have made my point and you get the idea of why forcing students to ignore their most valuable resource -their mother tongue- is irresponsible. The Smarter Diet I claim that Berlitz has become a legend most probably because they were at the right place at the right time. Please note that I do not criticize the service quality or the good intentions of the folks over at Berlitz or any other school mentioned before. tandembörse But I can safely say that they could work much more efficiently if they allowed English to be used as an instructional language and also schooled their teachers in memory techniques. Of course that would require a major change of their company structure and is unlikely to happen anytime soon. You will feel a lot better and your German skills and your self-confidence will improve noticeably. With these words… Much success in your endeavour. I read it in an essay by Wolfgang Butzkamm, one of my few inspirers in the strive for better language teaching. You might tandembörse to which is going a bit deeper than mine and although being scientific is a pleasure to read. We touched topics like the meaning of immigration and the role of digital media compared to the importance of printwork they read books in the former ages. tandembörse I am thankful for this opportunity, dear Paris and wish you a lot of success in your career and life. But on the other hand they are the most economical option… for the teacher slash school. When you sit in a language class here in Berlin, you share your teacher with people from all over the planet. When you learn German in your country you probably sit in class with people that share your cultural background but not necessarily the same level of education or professional experience. If you are not interested in these topics, the question is, why should you bother dealing with them. The authors of these books wanted to cover tandembörse vast variety of topics to please as many learners as possible and also to make it more interesting I suppose. Which is the right thing to do… if you have to please tens of thousands of people with different goals learning together in groups. What makes sense is to take what is there or at least what is reoccurring pretty regularly and learn how to handle that in German as soon as possible. And I am sure that when I have to look for them again, the necessity to find a roof and my dictionary will help me out here pretty quickly. What if I have kids. I love to talk with and about my son, e. We are complex being with a high demand for meaningful things. I personally would like to read interesting short stories right from the beginning. You get the idea, I hope. In case you learn German outside of Germany, you might even need less topics covered in these books. Stay out of class and hire a private tutor for the same money. Maybe 60 mins twice a week. Get some material that seems interesting and useful for you and a grammar reference using your native-language to explain certain basic structures no exercises needed. And most important: look for two or three tandem partners if you tandembörse afford the time but at least one. I promise you, you will learn German in much less time than in that school you were thinking of. In any case, I wish you success in your endeavor to learn German. To be honest, there is no such thing as a clearly defined result, but more about this later on. Click to find out about Background I was lucky to have friends from America who would let me borrow their material which covered most parts of the products offered by the beforementioned companies. While most where German, I managed to get a grip on the Pimsleur Hebrew I course. So the grammar you absorbed as a child without thinking may not be much help. To summarize: Grammar tandembörse something to avoid — One can learn a language in half the time — We should learn like a child to speed things up. Debunking the myths None tandembörse the claims above stands a closer look. Let me take them apart for you. It is a description of recurring patterns, which, when understood, help you to create words and sentences on your very own without having learned them before. This is a great gain and most probably frees tandembörse lot of brain capacity compared to memorizing each sentence that is about to be spoken by you. Time-Saving Well half the time of what. It takes 600 lessons in average to reach B1 in intensive classes. With private teachers that are able to respond individually to my strengths and weak spots it might be 300 only. Pimsleur claims to cover 120 half hour. Thomas sells about 30 hours of audio not naming the tandembörse of lessons and Rocketlanguages sells 32 lessons of 25 mins adding up tandembörse 12 hours. Neihter of the last two names a clearly defined goal. Why goals are so important Well, no goal, no control. If you know that standard classes take 600 lessons, why not measure the success of my clients with an official test which could be done online and then based on that claim to be faster than the tandembörse. Without knowing where it leads you, why would you buy such a thing. Would you buy a remedy prescribed by a self-proclaimed health-expert that claims to heal everybodys headache with an undefined dose. Learn like a child As mentioned in the introduction, this idea is still popular probably thanks to Berlitz and Inlingua who still base their lessons on this scientifically proven untrue claim. And children do not learn languages fast. Until they reach a level that can be compared to adult language they turn twelve years old. And they put a lot of effort into learning but they just judge it less as they are not yet ashamed to speaking falsely -until they come to school where they are punished for mistakes. Last but not least: Is listening and anticipating or speaking after a taped voice in any way comparable to the way children learn a language. They learn because they truly interact and adopt, analyze and repeat real life situations. This is impossible to mimik with any such language course. Speaking like a native More or less until the age of 16 we are able to learn a language in such a way that our pronunciation resembles that of a native speaker. Of course there might be exceptions but one thing is sure: without a professional teacher who corrects you this aim is far from possible. While software at least records our voice when we speak what the program wants us to say and enables us to compare it to the original, it is ridiculous to assume that I could correct myself without this tool. But the main problem lies in our inability to recognize our own mistakes. Why do you think do authors let editors read their texts before publishing them. Are they too stupid to find mistakes. If you are older than 16 that also means that you can not hear the language you are about to learn like any native. You can at max imitate it very well but will always be identifiable as a foreign speaker if you just speak long enough. And a proper accent does certainly not come with ease or in fifty hours of listening and brabbling what I think I hear after a professional speaker, who also speaks quite a lot of English on those tapes. That is said from other seamingly harmless things like homeopathy as well. But unlike the latter, learning a language unsupervised there is no real teacher involved in any of the above German audio courses can lead to serious language damage which is very hard to tandembörse even by a professional and so cause even more cost than you intended in the first place. Also it gives you the illusion of learning German -one can not but learn even inspite of bad teaching- preventing you to search up a specialist. My Personal Problem with Audio I am a very visual person. I have to see how words are written. I have to write as well as it helps me to memorize a word or structure. Also audio requires tandembörse to listen to a fixed sequence. But I am a fast learner and like to pick out the things that interest me at this moment without having to listen through several minutes of other stuff. I hated that at uni as well. What a colossal waste of my time and energy. Soothing the Wounds Again, what I can say is, that all three have put serious effort in producing high quality material and for that the prices seem appropriate. But how could you find out if these people are real. And what exactly are they claiming. Mostly that they enjoyed taking the courses. But then, what are these people comparing their experience to. They might have enjoyed private lessons even more. Did they solely work with the courses or used other material or people to learn German. All these questions are unanswerable. Unless I meet someone in person who convinces me that he or she has gotten his or her skills with these courses mostly I allow myself to stay doubtful of any of these companies claims. It can just be an inspiration to think twice before acquiring courses like these or any other audio-based tandembörse. Your aim should be C1 and from there you should just pick up still unknown words and structures on your own and be able to look them up yourself. C2 is mostly needed for higher educational work and is almost native level. Passing this landmark is very important for you motivation and level of commitment. The feeling after you have passed this first tandembörse level is invaluable. It comes after a perfect amount of days, where you are still fresh and yet already confident. B2 would be too far away yet and B1 will give you more than enough boost to continue until the first real challenge: The B2 exam. Become a Citizen The German government thinks B1 to be enough to get along well enough with the Germans in case you are looking for citizenship status. They say understanding 2,700 words is enough. You can find a complete list of them here. But going through it in a calm half hour just to see how many of the words you already understand might be interesting. The Challenge is B2 B2 is the first level that tandembörse that you can speak really fluent and understand 80% of the situations that you find yourself in repeatedly. You can prepare yourself for the exam and even see a sample of the language level here. How long Until… In an intensive class you would need about 720 lessons to get to B2. That are nine months of 3 hours daily not including homework. Costs vary from 1,800 to 9,000 for classes. Private lessons might require a bit more funding. And I really enjoyed picking some really nice books to read them to my now twelve year old son. What I pay a lot of attention to when choosing a book is the language. They are lovely written and it was a pleasure to read them to my boy but the language in there was everything but simple and definitely not suitable for a beginner but rather for the very advanced learners. Where Timmy and Tammy ride the ponys to candyland. Would you read that in your own language. It uses antique, low-frequent words and non-communicative tandembörse. Ever met someone speaking like a book. Even if that means not understanding major parts of it. But at least you are directing your interest towards your interests and pre-knowledge. Read it online with a good browser dictionary and you will quickly get the idea of the article or text. Helpers Great online dictionaries are linguee. Learn German like an adult, like an individual that wants to share what he or she has experienced and learned. Nevertheless I understood what kind of people he meant.
