The best way to learn German - interview with André Silva, language teacher at Expath Baby in Berlin

The journey to life in Germany is paved with challenges. Finding a job, a flat with Anmeldung, a Kita for the kids, so much so that you might forget about learning the language altogether.

This interview with André Silva, language teacher at Expath, is supposed to motivate you to take this one extra step to enable you to confidently participate in conversations at the Biergarten. And to say something else outside "genau".

Here are the topics we discuss:

- Hope and motivation for you out there

- André's journey from not speaking the language to now training German teachers

- The difference between classroom German and everyday German

- Should you start learning the language before or after moving to Germany?

- Will you learn German intuitively or is it better to have classes?

- Should you learn within an intensive course or as a regular activity?

- Can you get by without speaking German in Germany?

- What might you be missing out on if you don't speak German?
