German with Laura Avaliações 

Laura Bennett is an excellent German teacher. Her German Foundations course helped me learn difficult concepts such as German declensions, cases, noun genders and much more. Laura has created unique tables and pathway charts to help identifying patterns and tie the grammar together in an unforgettable way. The material is presented in modules with plenty of drills to reinforce each topic. This is a fantastic online course that exceeds in both price and quality to what is offered by my community college.

I had zero knowledge of German when I started "German with Laura" and it was really, really helpfull, so feel confident to do this course if you are like me.

Much has been said about how difficult german grammar is and how there is no rhyme or reason to a lot of it. Laura's courses very clearly and simply teach that there IS rhyme AND reason to german grammar. Her courses are the ONLY courses I've come across that have demystified german grammar. I have made leaps and bounds in my understanding and comprehending german sentence structure, cases, etc. since taking Laura's courses. I can't wait for her next course to become available as the further along I go the more fun learning german becomes. I can't recommend German with Laura high enough. 6 stars!!!???

Excellent training. I wish I had found Laura much earlier. My german self-learning was like a rudderless ship. Now I have structure AND a knowledgable resource to bounce questions to. So thankful for Laura & her excellent training program.

I returned from a short vacation in Germany and was frustrated that I was unable to have a simple conversation in German, despite my using a popular app before my trip. I could use the phrases I learned on the language app but not have an actual simple conversation. I am returning for a longer vacation in 2026 and am determined I will be conversant at a basic level.

So, I bought a few books on learning German. UGH! This approach was not going to work for me either. One of the books had pages and pages of words & charts to simply memorize.

I found German with Laura online via researching various options. I went through some of her free online explanations and realized this is exactly where I needed to begin my journey.

I have finished her Foundation 1 course and am amazed at her excellent teaching method, her wonderful charts and pathways for learning the complex aspects of German grammar, and how much fun she makes this learning process.

The accompanying course material is also very good. The exercises in the workbook are well-suited to progressive learning by tying in what you have learned in prior modules. Laura has some great tutors available in a Q & A/Discussions tab so if you get stuck, you can post a question and get a clarification. These discussions are archived so you can go through prior questions/answers as well.

I plan to go back through the entire Foundation 1 course and re-do all of the workbook exercises. I will then go on to take Laura's Foundation 2 course as I can see she will build on the knowledge I have gained from Foundation 1.

The course is very much worth your time and money if you want to learn how to have a basic conversation in German by first beginning with German grammar. German grammar is complicated, but Laura makes learning it fun and approaches topics using short presentations vs long lectures. When I reached the end of Foundations 1, I was surprised how much I had learned while enjoying the lessons. I am looking forward to Foundations 2!

I love Laura's courses! She explains everything so well, she has really smart ways of making things make sense. I had a lot of "aha" moments. I truly believe she is one of the best German teachers out there. So so smart and talented! Laura, you are amazing!

Before I found Laura's resources, my German learning felt like a constant uphill battle. I was using all the typical tools—apps, various online resources—but was left feeling like I was just memorizing endless lists of rules without ever truly understanding the language. It was incredibly discouraging, and my motivation was at an all-time low.
Finding her YouTube channel and then her free course was a complete turning point. What makes Laura's method so different and powerful is that she builds your intuition for the language from the ground up. For the first time, I wasn't just learning what to say, but I was finally understanding why it's said that way. Complex topics that once seemed impossible, like the logic behind the case system, started to feel natural and logical.
I'm writing this review for anyone who feels stuck like I did. This course gave me something invaluable: genuine hope and the motivation to keep going. It has completely revitalized my German-learning journey, and I cannot recommend it highly enough.

This is an excellent course.... awesome (downloadable) workbook, the videos are great, mini quizzes & discussions very helpful .... Laura is so easy to listen to... I love her teaching style & enthusiasm... I love Laura's charts, patterns, pathways and hierarchies .... it just makes sense.... I highly recommend this course and cannot wait to do the next one.... Thank you Laura and your team :)

Life-changing. Mind-blowing. Beyond expectations. As a 25-year career educator, I know what goes into curriculum and course development. Laura's courses are the best bar none and worth every penny. I have bought so many German books and tried different websites, programs, CDs, etc. None of them is as good as Laura's. The amount of work, studying, planning, color-coding, and charting is unfathomable. I have loved the German language since 7th grade (late 1980s pre-Berlin Wall Fall). I studied German in junior high, high school, college, and independently as an adult. Not until this course did it all begin to click. Laura is about internalizing and learning, not rote memorizing. As a teacher, I know that is the best path. Sure, you have to memorize some things, but it doesn't feel like work. This course has given me incredible solace over the last 17 months since my father was called Home too soon. I loved GF1. I will be starting GF2. I cannot wait. I feel like Laura is a friend! "Hallo Studenten!" :-) I cannot say enough good things about this course. I got all her textbooks first and tried to go it alone with the answer key. Helpful--but exponentially more helpful is her actual course, where she explains every color-code and pattern. Even though I did all the exercises before I took her course, I did them all again within the course. I learned more that way. Buy GF1 and go through it twice. Also, she has A LOT of free YouTube videos and blogs. Again, not as clarifying as her teaching--how could they be? At the end of GF1, she talks about either taking GF2 or studying on your own. She gives you so many resources. I literally cannot express my gratitude and excitement! You are risking nothing! WORTH IT! I have many full notebooks from various sources, but GF1 and GF2 are the epitome of a language class. No AI--just good old-fashioned passionate teaching and dedication. She covers everything! Also, the customer service and her team are stellar.

I recently completed the German Foundations 1 course and found it incredibly rewarding. The course is well-structured and made it easy to understand key grammar concepts.
I've been using my vacation time to focus on German, and this course really helped make that time enjoyable and productive.
The explanations were clear, and the progression through topics felt logical and manageable. It helped me identify the areas I needed to improve.
I’m looking forward to starting German Foundations 2 and continuing my learning journey. Highly recommend this course to anyone looking for a solid and enjoyable start in German!

Learning German with Laura has been a great experience! The lessons are clear, structured, and tailored to my pace. The teaching methods and topics are well arranged; she has a unique approach to be used every where in teaching German. I especially appreciate how patient and encouraging they are making even tricky grammar topics feel manageable. I've seen real progress in learning German. The videos are super good easy to follow the topics. Highly recommend for anyone serious about learning German with Laura!

Laura takes complex concepts and breaks them down into very manageable pieces. When doing her course, I never felt overwhelmed nor frustrated and I learned a LOT.

Laura's German course is exceptionally well designed and implemented. Laura is an amazing teacher and I'm very happy with the progress I'm making with learning the core concepts of the German language.

I struggled with learning German for years. I studied German in high school in the US and when I moved to Austria, I had to take a German language exam for my residency. I took a few in person classes but they were difficult and the instructors never took the time to explain the reasons for the German grammar.

German Foundations 1 & 2 with Laura has been truly easy to understand. The lessons are done in small chunks then you have a chance to do the practice drills to make sense and apply the new skills. The style of the information that is presented is engaging and not learning by rote but learning by usage.

I don’t think I could’ve passed my B2 exam without Laura providing the fundamental lessons in German grammar. Laura also helped to reduce any fears I had in learning new languages. I would highly recommend this course if you wish to learn to understand and apply your German skills into everyday and professional life.

This course brought clarity to what seemed an impossible task - learning to speak grammatically proficient German!

One of the best Teachers I have ever take course with super duper German teacher.

Excellent presentation of the concepts by Laura.

I moved to Germany 4 years ago (2021) I've been learning German since. I have completed a B1 level course and examination and even though I passed, I still felt that I didn't understand most of the grammar and blunder my way through it.

I found Laura's articles useful, and I tried to understand the all-in-one declension chart while taking the B1 course. Now that I have finished the Foundation 1 course, I wish I had done so while taking the B1 course. I had no clue what they were trying to teach me, I still don't know how I am supposed to understand complicated Grammar when the teacher only speaks in German. How can I understand it when the teacher throws another chart on my desk and points at things, I didn't understand the last chart you threw at me and we're already moving on.

People say this is the only way to learn, well maybe to just practice talking over and over again, but to understand the complexities of Grammar, I felt that I needed someone talking to me in English.

I highly recommend German with Laura. Laura provides a solid framework to learn and understand German's complex grammar. I especially appreciated her teaching of declensions which was very clear. Plenty of practice is provided to solidify understanding. I've learned much much more in this course than with Duolingo.

This is a great course that I'd recommend for anyone who has been lost on German grammar. I've done Babbel, Chatterbug and Duolingo and have liked all of them but while they were great for vocabulary, I wasn't getting what I needed on grammar. This course filled that empty spot. I especially appreciated the way the material was organized, and I loved the presentation style. It just flowed the way my brain works. I am planning on continuing on with the second Foundations class.
