About German Stories

We figured that the best way to learn German isn’t by sticking to boring, old-school teaching materials with unrelated little stories that are quickly forgotten.

We believe learning German should follow one long, captivating story – an adventure you can’t get enough of, not a chore. We wanted to focus on practical real-life German with a fun & addictive story that fuels your progress.

We asked ourselves: What if the typical “Hello, my name is …” dialog in chapter 1 of any textbook continued into a full-fledged story? What if it unlocked grammar and vocabulary in small steps along the way? What if learners couldn’t wait to find out what happenes next?

That idea was the beginning of German Stories.

Hi, I’m Christian Leuschner, the guy behind German Stories. Nice to meet you!

I started German Stories in December 2021. Many talented freelancers contribute to German Stories – voice actors, graphic designers, web developers and video & audio editors. But the man who puts it all together is me. I am a certified teacher of German as a foreign language. I’m the creator and show host of the German Stories podcast, and the guy who runs this learning platform as well as the company Language Stories OÜ. My further background is in journalism and copywriting.

My strengths? Fitness, foreign languages, and creative thinking.
My weak point? Forgetting the birthdays of the people around me.

I speak German, English, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, and Chinese.
