German for You A1 – Grammar for Beginners & 100 + A1 Exercises

I will explain all the important basics of German grammar, starting from scratch with the sentence units. Bit by bit, we will put them together. You will see examples for each topic and practice, in-course and with section quizzes.

In the grammar part, you will get in-course translations for the German example words and sentences . The grammar explanations are all in English.

There’s a pronunciation section after the grammar sections for students who haven’t really dealt with German yet. If you are mainly interested in the grammar you can skip that last section before the practice part.

Practice sections: There’s a vocabulary sheet attached to the first lecture of each exercise section. The exercise sections always end with a dictation. So after that, you will get a new sheet for vocabulary, so you can prepare for the next set of exercises.

The words and sentences will be read out then with pauses, so you have time to repeat everything. This is an important part of this course and it will improve your listening and speaking skills. Even if nobody is listening, keep repeating what you hear.

You will get a wide variety of exercises: fill in the blanks, Q&A, dictation etc. The topics cover all the material on the A1 level in preparation for an A1 exam (based on the Start Deutsch 1 exam).

The practice sections are in German with optional English subtitles.
