GOOD PREPARED THOUGHTS

WHERE TO LEARN GERMANY?

Currently, there are many German language teaching centers in Vietnam… unlike when I studied outside Goethe , there were only one or two more centers. With many centers, you will have more choices, but because of that, it is difficult to know which center teaches quality.

In my opinion, you should choose centers with German and Vietnamese teachers, study with Germans at least once a week, small group classes of less than 10 students, class classification according to needs and levels. of students (students studying abroad, studying abroad, classes for people who want to immigrate in Germany); Speaking class with native speakers…

Vietnamese teachers who teach grammar will be easier to understand and more thorough, because they have also studied German, have also faced difficulties, knowing which grammar is difficult, which is the focus, should be noted. On the contrary, German teachers will teach you how to pronounce, practice speaking with correct intonation, share about German culture to help you gradually familiarize yourself with the German way of thinking, from which you will understand more about German culture. people and Germany.

In addition, a good and professional German language center will often have extra-curricular meetings with Germans and have tutoring hours for those who can’t keep up with the lesson. Don’t miss the free trial lessons to find yourself the most suitable and reliable study place!

HOW IS YOUR EXPERIENCE TO LEARN GERMANY

Almost all textbooks have Arbeitsbuch/Übungsheft (workbook), you have to buy or copy and do all the exercises in the book. If you want to improve, do more in the book Gramatik Intensivtrainer, .. or you can google each grammar point that you feel weak and need more practice.

There are many ways to practice listening skills. I was advised by the older brothers and sisters to overhear. For example, at A2 level, listening to the songs in B1 will be difficult at first, but then gradually you will get used to the speaking speed. You can also listen to the Deutsche Welle Podcast, or listen to the news at www.dw.de. Later, I like to watch Easy German Youtube channel, with German subtitles – he, who speaks slowly, has rich content. Of course there are other ways such as watching German movies, listening to German music, etc. It is important that you try to spend time listening to German every day.

When I was studying A1, A2 always had a notebook dedicated to writing new words, the left column had German words with the same gender, the right column was Vietnamese or English. Later, when studying to a higher level, it was not very effective because the word could not be remembered for a long time.

In my opinion, speaking skill is the most important and also the most difficult. In order to have good reflexes when communicating, you should contact and talk to Germans as much as possible. You should also join the German club, Stammtisch, find the German Tandempartner if you have a chance. Currently, language teaching centers also regularly organize these free extracurricular sessions. In addition, you should also learn the Redemittels, choose for yourself a few sentences you like and then memorize them, especially some questions, later when you meet a German who wants to ask what you want to ask, it’s a reflex right away, without thinking.
