Course Description

This course will support you in reaching or expanding the B2 level in German. It will provide you with vocabulary, structure explanations, examples and exercises. The goal is to understand, speak and write German correctly on a higher intermediate level and give your language more variety.

We will work with a lot of examples to help you understand how certain structures are used in various contexts. All the examples and also the quizzes contain B2 vocabulary, which is (potentially) new to you. Take notes whenever necessary. Later in the course there are also lectures for word building.

Each topic usually consists of:

- one or more videos with explanations of structure/grammar and expression (How to say this? How to say it besides and why?), - please note that these explanations are all in German, and if you cannot understand everything, you can use the English subtitles -,

- one or more videos with only example sentences related to the topic,

- a quiz,

- additional exercises (written).

Sometimes there are also additional small quizzes or further tips.

With the quizzes and exercises you can practice right away what you have learned. You can download the written assignments in pdf format. They are usually attached to the quiz lesson. Open the section you are working on in the overview on the right and then click on 'Resources' to download the file.

Some topics have assignments with an individual solution and you can share them with me and other students.

There are also pdf-files attached to each lecture with the slides of each of them. Through the transcript button of the video player, you can also access a written version of all lesson-explanations (make sure, the subtitles are set to English or German to access the files respectively).

This course will help you to further your fluency and accuracy in German which will certainly serve you well in reaching your goals.

Please note that the speed of the videos can be changed in case you find them too fast (or too slow). This setting can be found on the bottom left of the Udemy video player (standard setting: 1x).

The content of the lesson is well-structured and taught. Various scenarios mentioned in the videos help understand the concept better and the Examples videos are outstanding as they provide a lot of vocabulary.

eine gute Wiederholung für mich bevor ich an C1 weiterschreite. Einen empfehlenserwerten Platform für Mündliches Deutsch suche ich immer noch.. LG Viv

I enjoyed the course and learned a lot. I found it very good that at this level it is taught entirely in German, with everything very clearly explained in a lot of detail. I took away half a star just because the course does not really cover all of the grammar points that are included at B2 level, so it is not really a complete course. But everything that is included is well explained with a lot of examples.

By Jessica Eggert on 12/6/2023

Very good and well explained. I use this in parallel to an online course with a teacher and classmates. Sometimes, the class is too fast or too boring or just not clear when it comes to certain topics, thus I looked for some explanations here. It is also very helpful that she speaks clearly and slowly. Best thing I like are the subtitles.

By Lara Ziosi on 8/16/2023

I have taken in person courses up to C1 and I wanted to revise my knowledge since I did not use German for a while. I found the explanations very clear and logical. Also the captions were very useful.

so far I have learnt a lot!!!very interesting and fun I would really like it if this teacher offered a Vocabulary course as well, may be newspapers´reading for B2 German learners??Thanks Maria

I used this course to help me understand more the textbook I have. It helped in many ways. This is the second course I bought from her.

By Meda Maria Bogdan on 4/8/2021

Ich mache gerade einen Berufssprachkurs B2 und freute mich, mehr Beispiele zu bekommen und eine andere Perspektive auf das Unterrichten zu sehen. Ich freue mich immer über Ihre Vorträge, Frau Hartwig, dankeschön!

By Emmanuel Ogomigo on 8/31/2020

The course is very engaging. You get to learn a lot and immediately see its usage. By the time you get to the quiz, you are already confidently equipped. The Beispiele, Quiz and "Was du jetzt tun kannst" are exceptional.

By Antonio Varela Fariña on 7/18/2020

yes, very well explained - well paced and just about the right level for B2. I was about to mention I could do with some "Beispiele" but I just saw they are coming next so all well for now
