These are the topics of the dialog texts:

 
The German Intermediate Course orientates itself around everyday language needs.
In the dialog texts, you familiarize yourself with realistic stories and everyday situations. 
 
Accompany the two main characters of the course through the highs and lows of everyday life!
Together you will experience 42 stories such as these:
  • You go with both protagonists on a quest to search for a new apartment.
    They set up an appointment to view an apartment through a real estate agent.
    But deciding which apartment is better, is not as easy as it's cracked up to be...
But in the end, the decision is made to take a lovely apartment in the best location.
Even still, the following difficulties arise:
  • To pay the rent for the shared apartment, a joint bank account has to be opened.
    Where do you have to fill in what information on the form?
  • Anyone would like to furnish a new apartment nicely:
    "But what shall we put where?
    Don't we also want to renovate the kitchen a bit?"
  • New furniture and kitchen appliances often come with operating and assembly instructions.
    Having the ability to read and correctly understand these manuals can help make doing day to day things that much easier.
  • The new television has finally been delivered.
    The man of the house impatiently opens the package and would like to watch the soccer match as soon as the tv is plugged in.
    But to his horror: the remote control is missing!
    Who wants to stand up every time he wants to change the channel?
    There's only one thing to be done: write an email of complaintto the product manufacturer...
After an exhausting move to the new apartment, you have to treat yourself to some leisure time:
  • Cooking for friends can be very relaxing.
  • In contrast, an afternoon at the soccer stadium can offer you thrills and excitement!
A little weekend road trip for just the two of you makes for a nice change of pace:
  • Where should your trip take you?
    A trip to the mountains would be really quite nice.
    And we know of a cozy little hut there as well...
  • You can do great tours there on bike.
  • An accident almost ruined everything...
Relationships don't always run smoothly.
  • Conflict and lovesickness - it happens in the best of families.
  • As long as you can forgive one another, things will work out for the best ...
"Will you be my wife?"
A wedding is nice opportunity for the whole family to come together again.
  • Is your sister coming with or without her husband?
    Who is your brother bringing?
    Is your niece coming as well?
    Who can pick up grandpa with the car?
    There are still a thousand things to be discussed.
  • And it'll be an unforgettable celebration!
Big changes are again on the horizon:
  • Your job is no fun anymore!
    But you can make the change without hassle:
  • Read the employment ads and apply.
    But whether you get your dream job ...?
These and many other lovely, exciting, sad, funny and suspenseful stories are to be found in our intermediate course.
You will find dialog in most of the stories so that you can practice speaking in the first person.
But you will also be quickly practicing the telling of events: You listen to news radio and read newspaper articles. 
 
The 42 dialog texts show you a language in it's everyday practical use! 
 

 
 


 

 

Diverse Learning:


We have built many gizmos into the program so that learning remains fun and exciting. 
 

Repeat the words until you know all the vocabulary: 
In all of the tests, you have to type in the right words so often that you will be able to do the correct translation instantly.
Simple words stop appearing in the daily program after 2 or 3 repetitions.
More difficult word may be repeated 5 or 6 times.
Especially difficult words, which you often don't know, are asked even more often.
Most importantly we don't want you to have forgotten these words by the very next day! 


 

Seven words at a time: 
After learning seven new words, the software will show you a table with a summary.
Learning seven words at a time is especially effective.
Now you can repeat these words again at a glance. 


 

Points, learning time and number of repetitions: 
You can already see how long you spend with one lesson unit.
By the way, you won't be able to cheat:
The program will actually only show the amount of time you worked.
If you would like to take, say a one hour brake, the clock stops ticking until you're ready to work again 
 
Every word allows you to see how often you have already repeated it today.
Words that you knew immediately will no longer appear in tests for this day.
Word that you are still having trouble with will continue to appear again and again. 
 
For every word you knew, you get points.
In this way, you can compare a day's learning with each other. You also see, for example, at which time of the day you learn vocabulary the quickest. 



 
A break after every 30 minutes: 
Studies have shown that after a half an hour of learning concentration decreases rapidly.
For this reason, your language course will remind you every 30 minutes that you should take a brake.
Stand up, go for a walk, drink a glass of water.
Afterwards, reinvigorated, you are ready for the next half an hour!
(You can, of course, ignore the reminder and immediately continue learning.) 



 
A wide variety of pictures: 
If knew a word, you will see a new photo as reward.
(We have also thought of something for you even if you answer incorrectly...)
When you see that the course is fun and rewarding, you will be motivated to see it through to the end! 



 
Motivating tips throughout: 
At regular intervals, you will get tips from our experts on how you can learn even more effectively.
Let us surprise you!
