This site provides language learning programs for students of all levels of German. One extra nice feature is the placement test, allowing individuals to discover which level is best for them if they have studied German previously. Slightly corny at times, the audio streams and pdfs can be found in German-only and bilingual editions. The incorporation of everyday words plus current topics and events makes this program extremely practical. ***Allows for non-English speakers to learn German as well. All instructions have been translated into over 20 other languages such as Spanish, French, Turkish, Hausa, Bulgarian, and more!***
