The best course I have ever tested! The best course I have ever tested! And I have tested a lot!! This woman deserves a prize!! Charismatic and Original Her system really unlocks German grammar and does it with grace! Simplifies the complex and systematise the random! Thank you Laura sooo much I am so glad that I found your course ! I wish I could make gratitude travel through screen right where you are. I am definitely taking the course number 2 as well ! Thanks again- it was a delightful learning journey!

A different approach to the German language… A different approach to the difficulties of German with organization that I have not seen elsewhere including a chart of endings that help with figuring out noun gender. It does stress some memory but not the rote memory of learning the gender of each noun. I have just begun with her and am at page 5 of one of her books. 3 books are sold for $25 total and appear necessary to me to go with her course.

The 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

So 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.

Essential 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.
