Now in German | Your journey to real life conversations

Jennifer von inGerman
Now in German!" is a podcast for all (to be) expats, internationals, professionals, and German language enthusiasts who already know and understand a few sentences in German and now want to confidently express their thoughts at social events.
Add German to the list of languages you actually speak—whether catching up with colleagues over lunch or bonding with your loved ones.

Here, we focus on strategically building German skills that fit into your busy schedule and how you can implement authentic methods to develop the right tools and structures in your language journey. Note: I'm a huge fan of strategy and structure, but I also delve into language learning methods that are more sustainable than the typical flashy apps—in my opinion, both aspects are crucial for sustainable success! You can expect to hear most parts in English and maybe some examples in German because this Podcast is not here to teach you German but to equip you with the knowledge, mindset shifts and skills that you need on your journey. But I might experiment at some point with episodes in both languages.

With over 12 years of experience in the language learning field, I've spent the last 5 years as an expat, using a language not just from textbooks but for real life. With German as my first language but navigating life daily in other languages abroad, I bring this perspective in as well. While this podcast may not focus on that, I combine this experience with my didactic knowledge as a teacher and holistic learning coach, understanding exactly what it's like to be in this situation.

Whether you identify as an expat, international professional in German-speaking countries, have German-speaking partners and family, or you have German-speaking people in your inner circle in your home country, if you have the desire to naturally converse with your people in German and nail real-life conversations, then this podcast is perfect for you.
