An extremely helpful, well presented and informative guide to supplement studying of German.

The various activities are broken up into lessons which take between 5 - 15 minutes - ideal for during lunch breaks or anytime you have a spare moment. Easy to follow, very useful and presented in a fun and informative way. Highly recommended.

This is a wonderful guide in German language learning. It's not overwhelming, you can choose how long you want to learn for and it's designed to be short so that you can always fit it in no matter how busy you are. There are loads of different kinds of exercises which keep it interesting and fun.
My particular favourite was Say What You See.
