If you're trying to think your way into learning German, you're doing it wrong.
Learn German like you did English: by hearing a huge amount of it. (With at least a vague idea of what it means!)
Thousands of German Phrases, along with the English translations, presented directly to your brain: from practical to philosophical to flirting.
Just phrases, no filler!
Go way beyond the German language basics to not just communicate, but actually become an interesting person in German.
As an audio-only tool to learn German, it's a perfect companion for driving, walking, or house chores.
This podcast is the perfect supplement for your current language studies, whether you're using an app like DuoLingo or are enrolled in a German class.
If you’re a beginner, we recommend you use this tool in addition to a good German intro course like Michel Thomas.
The German Learning Accelerator is created by language lovers and world travelers, for the love of language!
Every episode has subtitles available. (If your podcast player supports it.)
