Your First 100 Words in German : German for Total Beginners Through Puzzles and Games Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This book is an amazing tool for starting your German Vocabulary. I had gotten a good start using a CD set, as an intro to the grammer and syntax, but after that part is over you need to learn words! There is no way around it. This book introduces common words that we use ourselves to introduce children to our native language. Body parts, things around the house, animals, geographical entities (rivers, forests), and greetings and exclamations.
The book itself is setup like a grade school workbook, with simple matching activities after showing the words. The back also contains rip out flash cards for every word mentioned in the book. A final useful tool is a puncuation guide in the front with valid examples, so if you can't read German yet (I couldn't when I started), you will learn how to read the words used.

Schaum's Easy Outline of German (Schaum's Easy Outlines) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have studied German for almost six months, and I can tell you that this little book allows me to comprehend the material that I am learning in class much more quickly. This book is perfect for beginners because a more complex grammar guide can confuse the first time learner. As I advance in my studies, I plan to upgrade to the complete editions.

Communicating In German, Advanced Level Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)...but not really to learn on your own. We used this text in my University German class. In class, we groaned when we had to do the chapter on car parts (I mean I don't really even know what a spark plug is in English!), but the book does teach you important vocabulary while utilizing a thematic approach. It is one of the texts I always take with me for reference. Also, for a classroom environment, the book gives situations and asks questions which are good starting points for conversational practice.
