Why learn German?
Language Similarities
German may not be as challenging to learn as you think. It shares many similarities to English as both languages originate from the same root language. The pronunciation of German is very straightforward. Letters and letter combinations almost always sound the same in German, no matter where in a word they stand. So once you have mastered the main pronunciation patterns, you will be speaking like a pro.
What’s more, English and German share about 60% of their vocabulary. So if you have already learnt English, you are well on your way to communicating effectively in German. German grammar can be complex, and some learners find the process frustrating. But with a bit of patience and the right teacher, you can acquire a thorough understanding of how to use it correctly.
A beginners course will teach you how to communicate basic ideas and concepts and speak accurately. Using our years of experience teaching fluent English speakers, we have developed an approach to make studying German simple, fun, and painless for every learner. Learning a language is a long-term endeavour. It is critical to keep things simple so students can watch their progress. Most people are motivated by the knowledge that they are mastering a language, which inspires them to continue their linguistic advancements.

Did you know that Germany has one of the largest and most stable trading economies in the world? The German language is also the second most commonly used language in scientific research and development. So if you want to learn a third language to enhance your prospects in business or study, you should consider German. By obtaining a language certificate such as Goethe or TestDAF, you can significantly enhance your CV and amplify your career prospects.
Many students determine to learn German because of the opportunities for advancement in their careers. Learning German could help you stand out in a crowd of candidates. Equipped with German language skills, you will be sure to expand your prospects. You will have more chances in businesses both home and abroad. The ability to communicate in German will push you further, whether you want to work in a company with global connections or a specifically German-run business.

Travel Enriched
The best way to travel is to know the language of your destination. Learning German simplifies travel and allows you to immerse yourself in local cultures and traditions.
