Welcome to this Course
Herzlich willkommen bei SmarterGerman,
I'm Michael, the creator of this course and I'd love to share a few words of wisdom with you after over 30 years of dealing with learning and teaching languages.
The following lines will save you a lot of frustration, so read them carefully. Don't worry. It's all very simple.
You are in the Hands of a Highly Experienced Professional
When one sets out to learn German, there’s simply an overload of information to deal with. Allow me to be your guide through this jungle and to safely guide you towards your goal. I’ve not only walked this path many many times myself but I also accompanied thousands of learners on their way to happiness. I can be a knowledgeable and caring companion on your journey if you want me by your side.
What to do when you Struggle
Whenever you feel overwhelmed, what happened is that you have tried to take in too much information at once or you got lost at one point which happens at times. This is perfectly normal. The moment you realise that you are feeling stressed out, simply drop everything and remember a very powerful mantra:
DON'T PANIC.
Then immediately head over to the SG Community which I'll introduce you to in the very next lecture. There you'll not only find proven troubleshooting measures that will help with any technical issues quickly. It usually only takes max 5mins to sort out 99.9% of technical issues on your own. If it takes longer and the measures don't work as expected, reach out to me in the Community with a URL and maybe a screenshot of the problem and I'll take a look. But always try the troubleshooting measures first.
I can and will help you with any (!) problem you might have as quickly as I can. Now, let's see how you get access to our Community.
