Summary

With Paul Noble’s simple, relaxed approach you will learn in a way that suits you – without having to memorise long lists of words you won’t use, scribbling notes as you listen, or feeling frustrated. Instead, Paul will introduce you to the basics of the German language and guide you through over 12 hours of everyday scenarios – from simple situations like asking for directions and eating out to talking about yourself and how to master the different tenses – that are practical, fun, and applicable. Just listen, interact, and learn wherever you are.

Whatever your experience with languages, whether you’re an absolute beginner or someone with basic knowledge who wants to improve their ability, this is the course to get you speaking German quickly, confidently, and with no chance of failure.

A native-speaking German expert will help you to perfect your pronunciation as you progress through the course. You will learn a huge range of vocabulary in no time at all, and be able to quickly make your new knowledge work for you in a variety of everyday scenarios. A downloadable booklet is also included to use as a reference and revision tool.

Paul Noble left school unable to speak a language – having found that the traditional learning methods left him feeling ‘confused, incapable and unable to really say anything’. Determined that there must be a better way to learn, Paul spent years devising his own unique method of learning languages which cuts out all the grammar, all the memorisation, and all the stress. He began using his method to teach in his Language Institute and, thousands of students later, he prides himself on never having had a student fail.

This download contains the entire course – Parts 1, 2, and 3. To continue your language learning journey once you’ve completed this course, download Next Steps in German with Paul Noble for Intermediate Learners – Complete Course.

Incredibly impressed!

What made the experience of listening to Learn German with Paul Noble: Complete Course: German Made Easy with Your Personal Language Coach the most enjoyable?

My daughters (8 and 10) and I decided to learn German and within a day we could all three say basic (but impressively long) sentences. So clear and simple to follow and Paul explains in a way that we remember the grammar and vocabulary very easily. All three of us have immersed ourselves in German with enthusiasm and joy. Thank you Paul Noble!

An excellent introduction to German

I feel like this course may be slightly misnamed as a “complete course”, as it may make people think this takes you from beginner to advanced, which it does not. However what is here is a fantastic introduction to German, in which Paul quickly gets the listener learning, understanding and taking part in the fundamentals of German.
In each chapter Paul teacher a group of nouns, verbs and essential grammar rules culminating in a short scenario based around you being a tourist in Germany e.g. Getting directions, reserving a hotel room/ dinner table, ordering dinner and buying a train ticket. Paul’s method of constant repetition makes the learning easy without you feeling like you’re having to work hard for it, and being a native English speaker he knows the pitfalls and tricky parts in German for an English native speaker. If you have never really spoken a word or German, or only dabbled in it shortly at school, especially if you worry that learning another language is too difficult, I would recommend this as an excellent fun introduction to German basics. By the end of the book you’ll will have a surprisingly large repertoire of words and knowledge of German grammar rules considering the time you will have spent with this book, making it an excellent stepping stone onto more advanced materials.
My only personal negative is that Paul, for the sake of simplicity and not scaring away beginners strays away from using grammatical terms when teaching. For example by the end of this book you will have an understanding of the German accusative case, but you won’t know that it’s the accusative case. There is a bit of “this is how it works, but you don’t need to worry why specifically” and some readers may be frustrated by this if they want a deeper understanding.

Excellent and very relaxing for a beginner

Was excellent and very relaxing. It is a great start to learning by giving you good sentances which can get you by and helps you understand structure and a bit of grammer.

Amazing audiobook for learning German

I cannot recommend this audiobook enough, it perfectly teaches the listener a wide range of vocabulary and phrases whilst also teaching the listener the complicated German grammar, including the accusative and dative cases, professionally and in a fun manner.

In short, brilliant. Listen now.

A very good tool for linking together the language

Would you consider the audio edition of Learn German with Paul Noble: Complete Course: German Made Easy with Your Personal Language Coach to be better than the print version?

I haven't looked at the printed version, but I found the audible version quite brilliant as I could take it, listen and learn, anywhere. Unlike other on-line language courses.... I'm only interested in speaking the language, not reading or writing it.

What did you like best about this story?

I did know quite a few german words already, I spent a couple of years in Germany as a teenager. However, Paul Noble's course helped me put all those words into sentences, make sense of sentence structure, so that I can take any new words and use them. I found myself able to speak more confidently in every day situations (we spend quite a bit of time in German and North Italy).

Which character – as performed by Paul Noble – was your favourite?

Paul Noble.

If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

Patience and structure

Any additional comments?

I would like a more advanced course to follow on.
