I had no idea how German grammar worked. I tried to continue studying, hoping to later figure it out by myself. But this made my learning German only take longer.
Then I found German Stories. It explains the grammar rules from the beginning. Since I know many words by now, it becomes easier for me to form sentences with the correct structure.
It has become encouraging to continue with German stories now that I see I am progressing after a long stalemate.

I had no structured learning before I found German Stories. I was stuck in the same place with no progress. With German Stories, learning has become fun because it’s interesting to read and hear stories. I realized on one of my travels that I was actually getting better in small steps. I wasn’t improving before. But now it feels like I’m finally moving forward.

I couldn’t understand or speak German with my German friends and colleagues. The only options were to learn from textbooks or to use apps like Duolingo. But textbooks weren’t flexible enough and Duolingo was way too gamified. German Stories was the perfect middle ground. A few weeks after starting, I was traveling in the U-Bahn and for the first time, I was able to understand a German conversation. Now I can speak in basic German with friends and pick up more along the way.

I was having trouble finding a learning experience where everything fits together. That was annoying and it slowed me down.
But German Stories has great stories & explanations, and a good system for reviewing words. I realized this method is working while I was listening to the stories & explanations. I enjoy having more confidence in my learning ability now.

I needed comprehensible and simple texts to learn German, with words to memorize step by step. While reading or listening to audio in German, I had to stop to look for the meaning of the words basically 95% of the time. German Stories is the only website that has quick translations so I can easily memorize the words. Now I can study German with less frustration and I can repeat the texts easily.

Other apps and resources were incomplete, so I had to bounce between them. This got cumbersome, and I would also forget what I meant to look up midway through doing so. German Stories has all aspects of language learning centralized and nicely laid out on the page. When I did an assignment, I was amazed that I could actually originate German text on my own. I am only just starting but I am excited to get home every day to continue working effectively to learn German!

I was trying to learn German on Les Sherpas, but I felt like I needed to replace my tutor. Then I came across German Stories. They’re fun and one wants to keep up with the main story to find out what happens next!
I actually did all the lessons from 1 to 100, studying 30-40 minutes per day. Our teacher speaks extremely good English and German, and he is very helpful.
Now I can’t wait till the next bunch of stories will be available!

There were limited practical resources for speaking Deutsch. With German Stories I can speak like a native Deutsch about daily life matters. It’s digestible, easy to learn and easy for shadowing. After a while you can make your sentences subconsciously!
When I came across it in Castbox, I immediately found it’s what I looked for. Instead of looking for resources, I can now focus on learning. I practice on a daily basis and try to memorize conversations and make them myself. Believe me, It really works!

We wanted to challenge our brains to keep learning as adults. To our frustration, other materials lacked structure and introduced complicated grammar concepts too early. That made learning difficult. German Stories teaches grammar and vocabulary step by step without overwhelming you. This really helps anchor our memory. Around lesson 20, we were able to get the gist of a story before reading the translation. Now we listen to audiobooks, like Harry Potter in German. We still don’t understand everything, but we always get the gist of it!

I was having trouble progressing with German and was frustrated. Then I found German Stories. It’s fun and the private classes I had with Chris were excellent. Somewhere in the storyline I went back to an episode that I had listened to prior. And this time the words all sank in. I understand so much with repetition and the story makes that possible and enjoyable. I’m on track and this is much better for me than say Duolingo or others. Much better.

I knew some grammar and vocabulary, but I couldn’t use German in real conversations. I felt stuck and unable to apply what I learned. German Stories helped me improve without me realizing. The story kept me hooked, and I never felt lost. After a few months, I joined my first 1:1 session with Chris. Without prior speaking practice, I held a 30-minute conversation entirely in German. Now I have a solid path to German proficiency, and I’m confident I can reach my goal of B2 German quickly.

Before German Stories, I tried so many other German learning programs that are boring lessons about awkward social situations I will never be in. I lost interest quickly and never finished them.
But German Stories’ long serial story kept me hooked. I found myself eagerly looking forward to the next installment. And now I am sticking with it.
