Outside the classroom

Use the internet to improve your listening skills and begin to tune your ear to spoken German outside of the classroom.

Tagesschau - click on "Sendung verpasst" at the top, and it will load the most recent programme you can watch via streaming - Pictures etc. will help you to follow what is being said.


Deutsche Welle  - 24/7 news channel like BBC 24


Many of the leading online TV channels are blocked outside of Germany/EU. However, some programmes, such as news and documentaries, are often available. Again, it is valid more as something to put on in the background to 'tune your ear' to the sound of German.

ZDF Leichtnachrichten - Simpler German news from ZDF (Germany's BBC Two)

ARD (Germany's BBC One)

Arte (A Franco-British TV Channel)


German Music

This link is to the blog where I collect German singers and bands from across time. If you have no or few German favourites, why not have a look? They may pique your interest, and you can explore others by yourself, making your discoveries.


This padlet is where I collect many online German Language Learning Resources.


Very useful tools ...

linguee.de For context and more in-depth ideas.

The topic of non-binary terminology in German (I have never heard, read or seen them anywhere but here, though).


Mittwoch, den 9 Juli

Today, we can consider a few ideas from Konversationen, Situationen. This is an old book, now out of print, but it has conversations in many varied situations.
