Laura....from my experience the MOST HELPFUL thing I can think of for someone learning a new language is to review BASIC GRAMMAR which is the Fundamental Basis of any language .Make your review BEFORE you start learning the Language. Learning German was MUCH EASIER when I knew what a Noun, Pronoun, Verb, Adverb, Adjective, Definite Articles (Der, Die, Das) Indefinite Article (Ein, Eine) were and in a Sentence the Subject, Object and Indirect Object all were. In German it is ESSENTIAL that you understand what the Nominative, Accusative, Dative and Genitive cases of a Noun are and how to recognize them! Of course there are even more grammar topics than that to know. Without that knowledge ahead of time you will be forced to review the Grammar at the same time you learn the German, increasing the amount of work to learn it at that time. BTW...Your English is EXCELLENT!! DOCH AUSGEZEICHNET!! Tschuess Laura!
I started with learning basic vocabulary of german language first (such as pronoun, adjective, family member, animals, greetings). Is it a good start? I just wondering
@@gk_hmz Sure, that is a good start. Any vocabulary you build will always come in handy later. You might want to see if you can find a copy of a book called ENGLISH GRAMMAR for STUDENTS of GERMAN.(i suggest looking on AMAZON) By knowing all the basics of English Grammar it makes it much easier to get a grasp on the German Grammar.. People will often tell you German is hard to learn. I disagree. It's like anything else, you just have to work at it and practice EVERYDAY. My Favorite German professor told the class that learning a language is very similar to learning a Musical Instrument. Practice leads to fluency that grows day by day. Another nice thing about German is that so much can be learned by using the Rules of the Language. The rules often have very few exceptions, so if you learn the Rules, they can carry you very far in what you can learn to say!! Be persistent and you can learn LOTS of German!! Good Luck!!
@@gk_hmz I think any start is a good start. There are some things that tend to work well for anybody but language learning is also a lot about personal learning preferences.
So interesting! I can definitely tell why it would be helpful and that's how they do it in school as well. I just personally hate grammar. To me speaking English has become more to do with feeling than logic. But that is something you only acquire after a long time of learning it. I can tell you when something doesn't sound right, but I would be unable to explain to you why it's wrong. It's very intuitive for me now. But of course you always need a basis made of vocabulary and lots of grammar
As a fellow German I was terrible in my English classes during high school. I just couldn't grasp it. We then hosted an American exchange student for a year... which didn't help either. For some reason we just kept going with German. What changed the game was the internet. Suddenly you meet friends from the UK, Israel, NZ and Asia that you want to know better. It forces you to immerse yourself. You give your best because, FINALLY, you don't want to look stupid. No more boring gap texts to fill out. REAL conversations. You even come up with your own poetry to impress the other, lol. Then, after graduation I started working for an American company and... the rest is history. I moved to Texas 19 years ago. Don't give up your dreams.
It's always best to immerse yourself in the language. Great to hear about your success story. I am sure it will inspire many others as well
Laura, hi. I want to ask about exchange program because I know that you are from Germany and it's happened that I'm in Germany and I'm dreaming to go the USA. what exchange program do u used? can u telling about this in more detail? and what if I am not a German citizen, but just live here as a refugee (I am from Ukraine)
btw, Im in love with ur videos!!
Hi! I just discovered you channel and as someone who is really debating on taking an exchange year in the US, your videoed are super helpful!! I was wondering if getting a job is possible when you are there. And if it’s smart to have one?
That probably depends on your age. I didn't have one and to be honest I don't recommend it. You will have to be in school every day until 3 p.m. and I would advise you to join a club or sports team to make friends which means you will be in school until 6 p.m. every day. Your visa will probably not allow you to work anyway
@@honey27003 Okay thank you!!
