Every tool runs entirely in your browser — no signup, no fees. Grammar drills, vocabulary trainers, CEFR placement tests, medical German for the Fachsprachenprüfung, pronunciation labs, and the culture you need to actually live in German.
New to German? Start with the five placement tests in Assessment & placement to find your CEFR level, then work the Grammar drills track in order — cases first (tools 1–7), then verbs, then word order. Building vocabulary? The Vocabulary builders track runs from the top-1000 browser to specialised sets (medical, business, food) and the fun end: idioms, proverbs, dialects. Preparing for the Fachsprachenprüfung? The 15 Medical German tools form a complete prep course: anamnesis phrases, physical-exam vocabulary, documentation, informed consent, emergencies, psychiatry, paediatrics, lab values, imaging, discharge summaries, referral letters, and a full mock exam.
Grammar drills: Cases, conjugations, word order — the engine room of German grammar, drilled interactively.
Vocabulary builders: Word banks, flashcards and phrase trainers from top-1000 words to Austrian vs German differences.
Assessment & placement: Find your CEFR level: A1–C1 placement tests plus skill self-assessments.
Medical German: Fachsprachenprüfung preparation: anamnesis, documentation, consent, and clinical vocabulary.
Pronunciation & listening: Train your ear and mouth: umlauts, ch-sounds, word stress, dictation, minimal pairs.
Writing & culture: Formal emails, CVs, holidays, etiquette, small talk, bureaucracy — living in German.
Pronunciation & listening trains the sounds English ears miss — umlauts, the three ch-sounds, the vocalic r, word stress, sentence melody — then dictation and minimal pairs turn hearing into skill. Writing & culture covers the Germany beyond the textbook: formal emails, complaint letters, job applications, CV vocabulary, essay structure, linking words, holidays, etiquette, small talk, bureaucracy, and flat hunting — plus a streak tracker to keep the habit alive.
Each tool ships with its own guide (800+ words), examples, and a quiz with immediate feedback. Bookmark this page — it is the map of the whole series.
