Frequently Asked Questions

Is German easy to learn?

German has a reputation for being difficult, but it doesn't have to be.

There are definitely some tricky parts... especially der, die, das, cases and word order. But once you understand the logic behind them, German becomes much easier. I try to explain grammar in a simple way instead of asking you to memorise endless rules.

What is the easiest way to learn German?

For me, the most important thing is actually using the language.

You don't need to spend five hours studying grammar every day. Regular practice, learning useful vocabulary, listening to German and having conversations are much more effective in the long run.

That's why I like to make lessons practical and connected to situations you might actually encounter.

How long does it take to learn German?

It depends on your goal and how regularly you practise.

You can start having simple conversations surprisingly quickly, even if you are a complete beginner. Becoming fluent naturally takes longer, but you don't have to wait until then to enjoy using German.

If you want to learn German in a relaxed environment while still making real progress, feel free to book a lesson with me. I'd be happy to meet you!

Is it difficult to learn German in Taipei?

Learning German in Taipei can be a little challenging because you don't necessarily hear German in your everyday life. But that doesn't mean you can't make good progress.

The good thing is that you can create your own German environment through regular conversation, listening, reading and lessons. Having a tutor also gives you the opportunity to practise speaking regularly and ask questions whenever something doesn't make sense.

As a native German speaker currently studying at NTU, I can also help you with the things you won't always find in a textbook, natural expressions, pronunciation, everyday German and how Germans actually speak.
