I borrowed this as an audiobook from the library. It says there’s an accompanying PDF, but I couldn’t find it. It would’ve been helpful, to visualise the sentences & spelling. I still got value out of it, though.

I liked that this is a modern German course. It talked about the formal way to say something, the informal way, & some slang that is commonly used every day. This was great, as we don’t always speak formally. I think it’s great that the creators were a guy from Germany & a girl from America, so they could both contribute what they thought would be helpful for an English speaker learning German. And the general facts about Germany were interesting, too, but some could’ve waited til later in the course. For example, I don’t need to know political parties in the first lesson.

Unfortunately, sometimes they repeatedly practised a sentence in German, but didn’t state what the sentence meant in English until the end. I would’ve preferred to have the English first, then the German, then practise pronunciation by repeating it.

It wasn’t perfect, but I learned some things & would continue with more of their programs.

This will NOT give you a ton of vocabulary or phrases. Most of the book was focused on German pop culture, society, and the types of sounds used in their language. I still gave it 4 stars because it was always either interesting or useful information. But, fair warning, you won't walk away from this being able to say anything.

It's definitely set up as more of a "what to expect while learning German" than "beginner words and phrases." I've learned more (vocabulary) from 30 mins of Duolingo than this entire book. However, you'll get a better understanding of sentence structure, formal vs informal, and how to make certain sounds.

My only real problem with this book is that they kept trying to get you to sign up for their website. Supposedly, it's free, but I have no interest and found the repeated ads annoying.
