Feeling like you don't belong in Germany, even though you live here?

I've been there too.

 

Tell me there's another way

You start ordering a coffee in German...

...but finish the sentence in English.

 

You smile and nod politely...

...when everyone is laughing at a German joke.

 

You ask a store attendant for 'Gift' recommendations...

...and wonder why she gives you a weird look.

 

You get to your "halb-vier" appointment on time at 4:30...

...but don't understand why you're getting "that look"

 

Well, here's the thing...

"Getting by" is not the same as belonging.

 

You didn’t move to Germany, just so you can be left out because you only speak English.

 

You moved here

to LIVE here.

 

And living here shouldn't mean living in some kind of 'foreigner purgatory' where you stand on the outside looking at everyone actually living and enjoying their lives. 

 

You should be a part of that life.

 

But wait…

 

There’s hope. 

The solution you need may be closer than you think.

 

I’m building a German course for English-speaking expats who live in Germany and want to actually use the language, not just study it.

 

It’s called A1.1 Foundations. 

 

  • 12 audio lessons you can already use right after hearing them.
  • Real situations and how to use them to practice daily interactions: the bakery, the BĂĽrgeramt, the doctor, the train, the neighbourhood. 
  • You’re immersed from the first minute. You use your hands, your body, your voice. 
  • And at the end of every lesson, you do something real in German, with real people, in the neighborhood, the town and the country you’re already living in.

 

❌No grammar lectures. 

❌No vocabulary lists.

❌No apps that reward you with streaks that mean nothing in the real world. 

Just real German, learned the way your brain was designed to learn it... through doing.

Now, here’s the thing…

I’m not launching yet because I’m still getting things ready for you behind-the-scenes. 

 Things like...recording audio, cleaning up the group chat rooms, arranging lessons on the right shelves, and more.

But if you’d like to be one of the first to know as soon as it’s ready, sign up here 👉

 

All you have to do is put your name on the interest list above and I’ll let you know the moment the course is ready. 

No spam. No weekly newsletters. Just a quick reminder that says, “Hey, it’s here!”, when it’s time.

And as a huge thank-you for signing up, I’ll send you a little goodie. Something to get you started with German before the course even launches.

In case you're wondering...

 

Hi, I'm Christine.

I’m an English speaker who moved to Germany and went through everything you’re going through now. The blank stare at the Bürgeramt. The supermarket where I pointed instead of speaking. The doctor’s appointment where I switched to English before I’d even tried.

 

I’ve spent years studying how adults actually acquire language, not how textbooks think they should. This course is built on decades of research and 20+ years of teaching experience. It’s audio-first, body-involved, and designed for people who live here and want their German to catch up with their life.
