ABOUT ME
Hey there, I’m Jenna! A Canadian Expat living in Germany since 2014. 🇩🇪
Like many, I had a difficult time relocating - all the paperwork, making sure I wasn’t getting scammed, finding a flat, a phone plan, a job, etc. So, I took it slowly and documented all my adventures along the way so that years down the road, I could help others avoid making the same mistakes I did. Let’s look at it as… PAVING THE WAY FOR NEW EXPATS TO SAVE TIME & MONEY!
I built up www.lifeinduesseldorf.com to help expats make the best out of their lives in Düsseldorf, and then soon realized a lot of the content I was sharing was helpful for ALL expats living in Germany. SO I BUILT AN ONLINE PROGRAM THAT HELPS EXPATS FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD RELOCATE TO GERMANY EASILY - WHILE ALSO HELPING TO SAVE THEM THOUSANDS OF EUROS! 🤑
... and now I’m bringing it all to KZbin! ♥️

I've been in Germany for a while now. You are so right, in order to learn German you need to insist on speaking German. Many Germans speak flawless English and will want to speak to you in English. I learned that if you continue to answer in german they will get the hint and then speak to you in German. You need to have the courage to sound like a fool in order to learn German. Like you, I have discovered that Germans are very nice in helping you along as you struggle through German as they are the first to admit that German is "Deutsche Sprache, Schwere Sprache."

The last point can't be stressed enough. Always remember that everyone of us has learned a language before, our native language. We don't remember this, but watching and listening to little kids can teach you how to learn a language the fastest way. Little kids learn to speak a language by listening, imitating and repeating. When they learn for the first time about grammar, or properly reading/writing for that matter, in school, how old are kids? 6 years? 7 years? At this point children can already speak conversational fluent and never learned about grammar or sentence structures in their lives. Until this point, kids never think about making mistakes, pronouncing words wrong, worry about a wrong sentence structure or using the wrong tense. As adults we lose this ability of innocence. We worry so much about embarrassing ourselves and think more about the mistakes we could make, instead to focus on just using the language and be happy that we can communicate and by doing so constantly improving our language skills. Other people don't look at others and make fun of them if they mispronounce words or using wrong grammar, usually they are impressed that this person has the courage to learn a different language. Also never forget, especially if you are an American or from any other English speaking country learning German, that Germans learn another language, usually English, in school mandatorily, so the vast majority of Germans (with an age of ~50yrs and below) know exactly how hard it is to learn a new language and this is why they are so supportive. /end wall of text

Great video! Can I add a tip? One of the things that helped me get started was to learn German in Switzerland from a Swiss person. The Swiss don't take German so seriously and so they'll just get you speaking rather than worrying about the complexities that the German language has. To quote my teacher, the "Germans will hate it, but they will understand you, and you'll be able to have a conversation."

Agreed. The Swiss all learn High German in school and they will often be happy to speak to you in High German, rather than switching to English in a condescending way, like many Germans do. I learned German in school then had Swiss friends I could speak German with. They will all switch to High German when they know you are a foreigner, although they use some Swiss German expressions.

Two more traditional and substantial German language learning systems come from the companies Pimsleur (American) and Assimil (French). Pimsleur is preferable before Assimil because it concentrates on practical pronunciation and speaking throughout the course. Assimil does pronunciation, too, but goes into more depth about the grammar and the contexts of the language in various situations. Both systems are portable, and have many dozens of lessons that can provide months, even years, of continuing instruction. Both are recommended.

Psychologically it was very difficult, but fortunately he was helped by Yuriy Ivantsiv's book "Polyglot Notes. Practical tips for learning foreign languages”. The book " Polyglot Notes" became a desk book for my brother, because it has answers to all the problems that any student of a foreign language has to face.

This is so funny. I stumbled upon your videos because youtube suggested them to me. I am actually German but fluent in English and whenever someone asks me how I got so good at it I usually suggest the exact same things you did but just the other way round. Especially the movie and TV show watching. I always tell them to watch movies or shows they already know and watch them in English with English subtitles so they can hear the sound of the words they read and hear them in a context they are normally used in . It's pretty awesome to know that it works the other way round as well. I am currently watching all your videos because even being German there's one or two things even I can learn ;) Plus I think it's important to be open and know what expats or people from other countries in general are struggling with so it's easier to help. Keep doing what you're doing! It's pretty awesome!

I'm only 12 days in and I have started on Duolingo and write words and phrases down in german and their meaning and rules next to them. I'd say the hardest part is how fast words are said together sometimes that you almost don't catch it in German until it is spoken slower. I'm sure us native English speakers do this to others as well. And I'd say wanting to know so much and only being able to learn so quickly and retain it makes it a bit challenging.

Great comments! They apply to learning any language actually. I moved to Sweden from Chicago in 1992. I had the good fortune to take a beginner level Swedish class at a local university before I left for one term. It was enough to learn basic survival skills when I got here. I would add one more tip. I'm certain the same thing exists in most countries. In the book stores here, one can purchase storybooks for young children that are just learning to read. They come in all levels from beginner and onward. They are well illustrated to go along with the texts, and it's a great way to learn basic vocabulary as well as to learn sentence structure.

I watched this particular video of yours, because I noticed, how well you speak German, for not grewing up here. You German is really astonishing. Also I can confirm your hint, to watch TV and movies in the language, you'd like to learn. My english has improved, since I started watching TV series in english. Funny, one of my favourite series is TBBT as well. (And to be honest, I can't stand the German synchronization of this series.)

I think to make friends in Germany is more difficult than to learn German language 😂 and most Germans that I talked to agreed with me on that, one couple even saying to me that if not for their kids (being 'friends' with the parents) that they probably wouldn't have many friends, even though they are Germans themselves.

What confuses me a lot in learning German is the spelling at times & when to write a word in a capital letter (the 1st letter). Some of their nouns confuse me a lot as in English, those words are not supposed to be written in capital letter or ain't a noun at all. So, yea, that's the challenge to me... I also felt a bit frightened or shy speaking German in the grocery or bakery store when I was in Austria. The good thing was the staff won't answer you in English, so, I was kinda like forced to speak in Deutsch, & that way, my speaking skill was practiced.😁😄

As an german native, i think that your tips are really helpful.I am not a fan of helene fischer myself, but she sings all the words very clearly, so its a good opportunity to learn germany. I can also rly recommend to just set your Netflix to german. I did it myself (with english of course, to improve that) i think it helps much.Also: if your not really familiar with german, but want to go here, you dont have to be scared.A big amount of germans speak English.Also for any germany travels: inform yourself before travelling here.A lot of things are different here compared to America

Therefor he always gave me low rates for my test results- Trauma😩I don’t think I suck at Germaine at all🤔 but Grammer is tough🤯 Most of the Dutch people like to talk in different languages. Me to😅 I think Germane is a very sexy language. Didn’t experienced that before, but now I some how feel that way. Maybe because of the beautiful men that live out there in Germany 😍 Thank you, although I don’t have any plans to live in Germany, but thank you anyway! You are nice to listen to.😊👍❤️

I think you have to say that you are actually quite lucky that so much everywhere in Germany still contains or has English words in any form, be it advertising, songs, food, signs, labels or whatever always. (I mean at least here in Stuttgart, for example, because of the occupation zones at that time) Das fällt mir zumindest immer mehr auf seit Wochen und Monaten, als ich mir überlegte, was genau meine amerikanischen Freunde verstehen könnten ohne deutsch zu sprechen ;)
