After trying a few different apps and some “self learning” suggestions, I found German Stories. After a few months working with Chris and reading his story, I can definitely understand more German than when I started. I can also speak more, but still mess up a lot, but Chris is very encouraging and patient. The story is set-up to introduce a few new words and with enough twists and turns to keep you wondering where it will end.
Although I have have only been with the program a very short time, I can see how my learning will improve constantly. Exercises are well designed. Reviewing of previous vocabulary is always part of the program. German is not easy so obviously you have to study hard. But it helps to have the right tools (program).
It’s a great product and I have been using it for the last handful of days. I fully intend to climb the charts now that I am in the program! Prior to this I had already listened to the first 25 episodes on Apple Podcasts. I finally decided to invest in the full features. By the way this is the only program I have ever paid for other than a couple of books with short stories to read out loud.
I learned English and Japanese with the help of lots of materials. I think if one can stick to comprehensible materials, such as stories with good sound, acquiring a language is a matter of time. I found German Stories not only has these elements but also prepared way more. I was amazed by the carefully designed lessons, Podcasts, website, etc. I have been learning here for a few weeks and love it. Everyone can benefit for their language-studying journey.
I had been using Duolingo for a few months, but my listening skills were very poor. I looked for something I could listen to while I’m at work and that’s how I found German Stories. It was just what I needed. Spoken clearly enough for me to be able to understand it, and with the grammar explainer it is just great! And the website really brings it all together.
Hello, I have been learning German for at least a 3 moths now and Learning German with German Stories has been a real game changer. I am so glad I can learn with podcast and practice my vocab as well as grammar. Goal is to move from A1 to B1!!!!
I love that German-Stories teaches you listening, reading and reading comprehension skills in a fun story-like format. The audio quality is perfect, there are interesting sound effects that make it more immersive and the voice actors all sound very professional. The immersive learning platform is also good, you can hear a real German speaker speaking German with good pronunciation. It’s an excellent way to boost your vocabulary.
As a beginner, I was looking for a way to improve my german by listening to stories. However, I usually don’t know enough to comprehend them. Then I found German-stories.com. It’s a feel-good site with a very amusing story that is delivered in short podcasts. After each segment, there’s a line-by-line translation. So you get the story, new vocab and insights, along with excellent practice. Very glad I found it!
I have really enjoyed learning German with German Stories – and I’ve found it so much easier to learn this way than other means I’ve tried in the past. The story is very enjoyable and the vocabulary and grammar are introduced slowly and naturally, in a way that is clearly explained and so easy to follow. I always look forward to the next podcast coming out!
I recently discovered German Stories and I’m absolutely loving it! The podcast uses short stories to teach the language, which makes learning fun and engaging. They are interesting, with characters that are easy to relate to. The instructor breaks down the grammar and vocab in an easy to understand way. Plus, the audio quality is excellent, making it a great way to immerse yourself in the language. I highly recommend this podcast to anyone who is looking to learn German.
I like that I get to read the transcripts as I listen to the story so I can follow along. It is fun, informative, interactive, and humorous. Very glad I stumbled upon it recently so that I can immerse myself in the language! I will let you know how I fare when I am in Germany forced to speak the language!
I have tried many apps and books to try to learn German and wish I would of found German Stories earlier. I like the fact that the conversations in each lesson aren’t overly long so, it is much easier to learn the material.
The story-based context has always intrigued and motivated me. Each lesson is right in length for studying in just one sitting and comes with exercises, definitely a big plus. Also, there’s useful extra tips for pronunciations (like ä, ö, ü), usages of words and so on. It makes me feel I am getting closer to authentic German. Also, I listen to the Podcast as my bedtime story. I’ll keep learning with German Stories.
At first I was hesitant to subscribe to the German Stories podcast but then I became hooked on the story (not to mention the leitmotif music that separates each section of the podcast). Now I can hardly wait for the next installment of the story. Grammar exercises and explanations are helpful and do encourage me onwards in my study of the German language. Danke Christian.
I stated with Duolingo. I frequently needed to consult “Professor Google” to understand “why this word order” “why leben and not wohnen” …and countless other issues. I was spending more time on Google and less in Duolingo. Now I’ve found German Stories and have started the free trial period. WOW! What a relief to find such a well thought out and intelligent approach. No more need for “Professor Google”. I thank Christian and the entire team.
My son likes Mr. Chris very much. I also think the content of the course is very good. There are audios that can be listened to repeatedly. Grammar, vocabulary and exercises are rich and professional. Although my son started to learn German from the first grade of elementary school, he has been learning with the teacher, and he should be able to enter a German university when he is 19 years old.
Let’s face it, there’s NO way to learn another language without understanding rules of grammar, hearing word pronunciations and studying vocabulary. This all sounds painful until you go to german-stories and spend time on the platform. The stories are well thought out and fun to hear. The exercises are so good you feel like you’re getting individual instruction. I would encourage anyone on any other language sites to check this out. You won’t be sorry!!
