German Stories - Learn German with Stories (and more)

After Duolingo and DeutscheWelle’s Nico’s Weg, I was stuck somewhere between A2 and B1. Until I found German Stories, various apps and German learning websites were not captivating and the exercises were often trivial. German Stories solves both problems. The little stories are amusing and motivating— what is Paul going to do next to go from bad to worse? The exercises on the website are provocative and helpful. The best is the opportunity to write a little essay about the story with immediate corrections and feedback. Finally, I am making progress again in learning German while enjoying the process. You may find that it works for you, too. I recommend it for an elegantly presented approach to German.

Proper mouth to mic distant, maybe a very good mic? I use these stories as background when doing other tasks; sound/voice quality is paramount to me. I use a few language learning podcasts to help me and this one is an important one. I listen for hours everyday as a background even going back over older episodes. The fellow has put allot of effort into this program. One thing about all these language learning podcasts, is I wish they would say the English parts much faster. And drop the musical bridges, but not a problem with this podcast, pretty tight.

I truly enjoy listening to the episodes. They are very helpful. I encourage anyone who wants to improve their listening skills to follow along. Thank you for your efforts. Your friend from Iraq “Lawi Karim”

I really enjoy these little stories. It’s a fun way to learn on my way to work. The narrator is funny and easy to listen to.
