I got TELC B2 93%+ in 7 months. It was very difficult for me and that's why I'm incredibly happy. Besides, I've been expecting results for almost six weeks! March 23 - visa and arrival (0 German, no preposition) May 23 - the first language lesson November 23 - A2 exam January 24 - B1 exam February 24 - LiD exam May 24 - B2 exam It took 14 months from visa (full zero) to B2. It took 7 months from A1 to B2. In fact, from March to October 23, progress was minimal (I worked, traveled and did my homework at a minimum). From October to February, I studied hard, and in 3.5 months of classes, part-time from A1 reached B1 (DTZ). In February, I did a naturalization test (it requires reading practice, so passive classes). In March, I dealt with courses, schools, documents and education. In April and May, for 2 months I studied fulltime every day 8+ hours and from B1 reached B2. If you remove the first months, all weekends and February, add time and discipline (conditionally, if I were a non-working student), you can learn in 4-5 months probably. Funny enough is that in June I was was doing math and all sorts of career/academic research, which means there was less practice and I forgot a lot. So that’s it. Anyone can learn the language, you just meed to spend a little time:)
I've self-studied, got my B2 in 7-8 months and now I'm studying in a Studienkolleg and for DSH III , it requires dedication but also enjoying the process otherwise you'll experience burn-out but the point is it's possible. ❤
@@Mastershifu108 I may miss some of the resources but I'll list them as long as I can remember: A1 Menschen A2 Menschen A2-B1+ Sicher!

Some good UA-cam channels for learning German: Learngerman Slow German And later for B2 and more podcasts like Quarks daily can be helpful for improving Hören.
@@glittering_insect1059 that's correct. German has a lot of vocabulary that are completely foreign to someone who doesn't speak a Germanic language already like swedish or danish
C1 should be at least 1.3-1.5 years if the person is really interested in the language and how much time he spends reading during a day,Depending on the person also
I learned b1 in 6 month.. Then i prepered 1 month for exam questions ( goethe b1 ) I passed the exam.. Speaking 83 Reading 71 Writing 79 Listening 60 ( passing mark ) Listening was so much hard because they dont repeat the questions.. Now i am prepering for b2 ecam since 2 monthes...i will take the exam after 45 days.. So for b2 level it will take me around 10 months.. Note : i live in my home country- and i learn alone.. So if ypu live in germany you csn learn faster. Note 2: i learned german daily for 5 hours...if you you learn 2 hours per week...it will takes years to finish b1 level even
You have no idea how helpful your videos are. I'm halfway through A1 course and this video gave me a lot of motivation. As a Portuguese speaker, German is quite hard for me, but I won't give up. Keep up the good work, Max! 💪
Another banger video! My German level is C1+, it took me around 3-4 years to reach here. I think there are a lot of factors influencing the time required to learn German and reach certain levels, some people have amazing polyglot characteristics that help them to learn any language faster. I believe it's the left hemisphere of the brain which concerns learning languages and some people just have a stronger left brain. Another aspect to reaching certain levels is, some people have language certificates for certain levels but it doesn't really correspond to their IRL skills, like as a foreigner myself, I've met a lot of people having b1/b2 certificates but when you hear them speak German, they barely correspond to what I would say is A2 level. So it just shows flaws in the testing systems like Telc/Goethe where you can basically hard-grind their testing patterns and obtain language certificate but your actual language skills are still below what the certificate states. Anyway, I loved this video and I appreciate the efforts you put into these.
Yes, it's truly fascinating to discover that when it comes to speaking, that is language skill subset where people tend to fall apart (myself included). A recurring theme I have seen in group classes, is that most of us have our introduction down pat. I have learned that the only thing I can tell from someone's introduction is how well they can pronounce German when they have thoroughly practiced the lines (aside from their name, country of residence, etc). But then I have seen the same people, again myself included, fall apart when they speak. And it's no wonder. Speaking is the most brain intensive of the language tasks and even more so with German because of the large number of complex and asymmetric declinations and conjugations. When you listen or read, you don't have to know the genders (except for comprehension some times when it comes to singular vs. plural), you don't have to have your declinations rigorously practiced, etc. However, you do need them when writing, but with writing you have all the time you need to figure it out. When speaking you have the worst of all worlds because not only does make prominent *every* weakness in your skill set, but you also have to deal with whatever level of self-conscious behavior you suffer *and* stress of public speaking! In a weird way it's one of the most stressful yet exhilarating parts of learning a foreign language. :)
Exactly,your comment is realistic. This video isn't real, and if it is, it's rare cases. I have been learning german for 2.5 years, and I "reach" b2 level in 8 months(20 hrs per week). Could I speak b1 level german when I reach b2 ? The answer is no! I was completely lost most of the time in b2, and I still took the telc test, I failed it by one point. What's the point of passing the b2 certification test when you can barely speak b1 ? Oh, I can't forget to mention, I live in germany. I also can't forget to mention I speak Spanish and english fluently, so learning languages for me isn't impossible, but I think these videos set very unrealistic goals and basically set people for failure. Let's say I'm not a genius to be speaking b2 level in 8 months, but neither of 100other classmates I met ? So how likely is this ? Im currently taking b2 for the 3rd time ! First two times were intensive back to back and then I took a break of 4- months and now I'm taking it for a 3rd time and know I know I belong in b2 bc everything else it's too easy. I'm frustrated bc I can't get past this damn level. Listening b2 german is fine. I watch movies and shows in german. My problem is that it's hard to discuss specific topics. I can't wait to get past this already.
@@leandrorodriguez4444 Good points. On top of that, I think it's universally understood that we are very quick to judge people how well they speak a language, and that "ancient" part of the mind is not tolerant at all. I have to remind myself that the person speaking broken English to me, is speaking it better than my German. When I speak German, I feel that fear very keenly about being my intelligence judged harshly by listeners, and that compounds the problem many times more!
Great Video Max! I agree, you can practically learn A1-C1 in 8 Months. As you said, the way to do that is to take intensive courses and make German learning your central goal, that's how I did it in less than 8 Months. If you learn it part-time, it will take much longer.
You are absolutely right i did A1 in one month and after living some time in Germany skipped A2 and gave directly B1 just in two months, this is where it becomes fun and i feel proud because i can speak German finally after studying effectively every day. And Yes IT'S COMPLETELY UP TO YOU
Bro, I have a question. That, can I speak german without any sound and tone? I mean, can I speak german normally? Or, do I have to speak like; a native German and is sounds and tones are very important in German language ( like; french ). ( I hope you understood)

Hi! Could you recommend me some books to start learning German from scratch? I don't know how to start. I'd be grateful to you if you could guide me in these first steps. Thank you!
Ich bin derzeit auf dem C1-Niveau (7 im Fach Deutsch B als Teil des internationalen Abiturs) und ich bin mit allem einverstanden, was du in diesem Video erklärt hast. Deine Videos sind ganz nützlich - ich hoffe, in 3 oder 4 Jahren fürs Studium nach Deutschland umzuziehen und die Infos/Tipps, die du mitteilst, sind unglaublich wertvoll :D
Hi Max, I just started learning German about a 1.5 weeks and I am very happy with my progress. I practice approximately 3.5hrs per day but what makes it easy for me is understanding the grammar behind the german language along with the pronunciations have helped me to leverage my english grammar as a native speaker.
Yeah, the grammar is the hard part. Well, depending on what language(s) you come from. One concepts can be quite hard when the native language doesn't have them. Like gendered nouns or cases.
@@HappyBeezerStudioseven in other languages where you have genders those are sadly 50% different so always gamble with German words! Unless one memorises with articles from scratch
@@catherin77 grammatical cases are also a thing that is vastly different in execution compared to english. English has three and only uses them on pronouns, german has four and the nouns themselves are changed. On the other hand, english has two very distinct present tenses that make the context clear ("I eat" vs "I am eating"), while German requires adding stuff to create the context.
I am studying German now and I can say one thing - I find German much easier than English. I have studied English since school, but I can't speak that language. But German is clearer, more logical, there is structure, there are rules. Words are read the way they're written. In English you have to guess how to pronounce words....
It all depends which languages you already know or your mother tongue. English is my 2nd language but having lived in English speaking environment for 20years I think in that language and became bi-lingual. German has complex conjugation, genders and cases!
What you are saying about learning German in Germany seems rather reasonable. If we look at a Goethe Institute Language Program in Germany, their approach in the 1980's was 8 weeks, 6 days a week and 6 hours a day per level of proficiency. For the 4 months I was at such at language school ,that worked for me and most of the students in attendance. Since then I am more interested in learning local dialects from Austria and Switzerland. I put the least amount of emphasis on learning the Grammar and more on hearing and reading comprehension, followed by annunciation and thinking in that language variant. Don't for get to consume some of of the German styled food and beverages in enhancing your learning abilities. Art and Music live performances are also highly effective.
I started learning German 5 years ago. I never took any paid courses, because it wasn't necessary, I wanted to proceed at my own pace. I completed Duolingo's course in maybe 6 months (I still do it just to maintain my streak). I then moved to the official app called A1-Deutsch by VHS. Completed it in 1 month and passed the Goethe exam with 89% Same for A2, I used A2-Deutsch by VHS. Got 79% on the exam. Came to Germany for master's (in English), took courses at the university and kept doing B1-Deutsch. After that I moved onto B2-Beruf (coz B2-Deutsch doesn't exist). I don't intend to take an exam until the citizenship process requires it. On the side, I watch German cartoons and talk to my work colleagues and fellow students in German, just for fun. Germans say my German is close to C1, non-Germans say it is between B1 and B2. I think the non-Germans are more honest in this case :D.
Super interesting overview. I cannot spend 20 hours a week learining German, but this has helped me have more realistic expectations about my progress based on the actual time spent. Thanks!
Learning a language is not a sprint but a marathon, to reach proficiency or native level will take Langer, I'm talking about Goethe certification, I'm talking about the real fluency and proficiency that are demanded in some linguistic professions l
@mkpop-s2i I agree. None of these tests imply someone has mastered or is fluent in a language. However there are different definitions of what fluency means, so you just have to go with the criteria on the CEFR to show what you can do.
Took me 4 years to be fluent in German. (And I live and study in Austria for 3 of them) - means I can speak with natives and write e-mails pretty quick nowadays, even 6 months ago I struggled. Only recently kinda fixed my accent. C1 gave me almost nothing in this language btw, I think these exams dont show the real picture. I got C1 in a 1.5 years of learning, just by learning out dialogues for the speaking part - my real output level was like A2 at best. I suggest everyone to ignore these sorta certified "achievements" - you're like half way up there, keep your routines up. My mistake was to stop immersing as hard, but even living in the country you should keep reading at least 1 hour a day and watch TV shows. C1 = you get basics down, but not harder verbs, not adjectives, not Deagentivierung, not Nominalisierung or Redewendungen. I did first year through refold, then uni language course for a semester, then 2 years of Uni.
Gerne würde auch ich meine persönlichen Erfahrungen teilen, was das Deutschlernen angeht. Ich mache das absichtlich auf Deutsch, denn es geht ja hier schließlich um das Deutsche. So kann man gleichzeitig auch sein Leseverstehen verbessern:). Ihr könnt gerne die Übersetzungsfunktion benutzen, falls ihr etwas nicht so gut versteht. Mein erster Kontakt mit der deutschen Sprache war Anfang Februar 2023, als ich begonnen habe, einen Integrationskurs zu besuchen. An der Stelle gilt es zu erwähnen, dass ich vorher keinerlei Vorkenntnisse hatte und wirklich bei null angefangen habe. Es ging so weit, dass ich nicht einmal alle Buchstaben des deutschen Alphabets wie Umlaute kannte. Nach ungefähr 5-6 Monaten war ich bereits in der Lage, die normale Sprache relativ gut zu verstehen und etwas zu antworten, was allerdings nicht ansatzweise das war, was ich mir gewünscht habe. Also ging es weiter und im Oktober - nach ungefähr 8 Monaten aktiven Lernens - habe ich meine erste Deutschprüfung abgelegt, und zwar den DTZ B1. Die Ergebnisse waren - wenig überraschend - sehr gut. Im November war dann mein erster Deutschkurs zu Ende und ich musste mir einen weiteren Kurs suchen. Jedoch war es etwas schwierig, direkt mit dem nächsten Kurs anzufangen, was daran lag, dass es Jahresende war und es keine freien Plätze in herkömmlichen Deutschkursen gab. Damit musste ich mich halt abfinden und darauf hoffen, zum Jahresbeginn einen Platz zu bekommen. Mitte Januar ging dann endlich mein B-2 Kurs los, den ich allerdings nach eineinhalb Monaten abgebrochen habe. Im Zeitraum zwischen November und Januar habe ich nämlich viel selber gelernt und vergleichsweise viel Kontakt mit Muttersprachlern gehabt. All diese Anstrengungen hatten zur Folge, dass ich mich gut genug darauf vorbereitet fühlte, eine B2 Prüfung abzulegen, ohne den im Januar begonnenen Kurs zu Ende absolviert zu haben. Denn endlich war ich imstande, mich spontan und relativ fließend zu diversen Themen auf Deutsch auszudrücken und beinahe alles, was mir gesagt wird, zu verstehen. Also habe ich mich für die Goethe B2 Prüfung angemeldet, zu der ich Anfang Februar 2024 hingegangen bin. Nach ca. 3 Wochen nach der Prüfung habe ich dann das B2 Zertifikat mit dem Prädikat sehr gut erhalten. Neben der Prüfungsvorbereitung habe ich mich in der Zeit auch mit der Suche nach einem guten C1 Kurs beschäftigt und mir einen Tag vor der B2 Prüfung einen Platz in einem studienvorbereitenden C1 Kurs sichern können, der im März 2024 beginnen sollte. Dies war ein viermonatiger Intensivkurs, den ich logischerweise bis zu Ende besucht habe. Im letzten Monat dieses Kurses lag der Fokus fast ausschließlich auf der Vorbereitung auf Telc C1 Hochschule - eine Prüfung, mit der dieser Kurs endete und den alle Teilnehmer, deren Ziel das Studium an einer Uni war, mitgeschrieben haben. Zu ihnen habe auch ich gezählt und die Prüfung Ende Juni 2024 abgelegt. Vor wenigen Tagen habe ich endlich das begehrte Zertifikat mit dem so sehr gewünschten Prädikat sehr gut erhalten, das mir nun so viele Türen öffnet. Abschließend lässt sich festhalten, dass es bei mir ungefähr eineinhalb Jahre harter Arbeit gedauert hat, das C1 Niveau zu erreichen und es mit dem entsprechenden Zertifikat nachzuweisen. Eine genaue Stundenanzahl kann ich leider nicht genau ermitteln, doch es war fast immer ein ganz normaler Acht-Stunden-Arbeitstag plus Wochenende. Das Wichtigste dabei ist, dass ihr ein klares Ziel vor Augen habt, wofür ihr das Ganze macht, und jeden Tag darauf hinarbeitet. Ansonsten würde ich behaupten, dass es nahezu unmöglich ist, große Erfolge zu erzielen, ohne für sich die Frage "wofür ich das mache" beantwortet zu haben. Viel Erfolg!
Wow, als Muttersprachler ist dein Kommentar wirklich super geschrieben. Hättest du es nicht erwähnt, würde ich glauben, dass du auch Deutscher bist. :) Das Einzige, was mir auffällt, ist, dass Nicht-Muttersprachler oft formaler schreiben. Als Beispiel in deinem Kommentar: „...gilt es zu erwähnen“. Das ist perfektes Deutsch, aber Deutsche hätten eher geschrieben „...sollte ich erwähnen“. Das ist aber auch nur Meckern auf hohem Niveau und nichts, was dein Deutsch schlechter macht. Es will auch nicht jeder wie ein Muttersprachler wirken, und das sollte auch nicht immer das Ziel sein. Ich liebe es, Menschen zuzuhören, die die deutsche Sprache gelernt haben, um zu sehen, wie schön die Sprache auch anders genutzt werden kann. Viel Erfolg weiterhin beim Lernen, auch wenn es sich so anhört, als müsstest du nicht mehr viel lernen. ;)
In Turkey, one state university is in German. In there people learn German for to reach testdaf 4 in 2 semesters, starting from scratch. It tooks 1000 course hours.
7:40 that's wrong, i'm not a native in english nor french as well as german and spanish, yet i'm pretty good with french while i use it everyday in my college, also i'm pretty good with english which i've learned it since my childhood, and spanish while i love it, but learning a language is absolutely not about studying it not at all, but rather is the consumption, i want you to consume german as a german native everyday challenging yourself to talk in different subjects like the natives do it, again and again, with a little slice of studying like 2 hours/day, and only focus the studying in german grammar, and this is how i did it for all of the previous langauges that i've had, studying doesn't mean fluency, studying doesn't mean learning especially in the topic of learning languages
I studied it from scratch for two years, and all I could really do was do very, very simple conversations when I visited Germany for a holiday in 1995.Still, I was pleased, and every time I struggled, the locals would speak English for me.

There are 3rd generation migrants living here (Their parents came here in the 60s or early 70s) and they only speak broken German, even though they are born here. There are also two levels to learning German: The individual and social level. You need to have the drive to learn it and the social incentive and requirement to do so. If you don't want it, you won't do it. If you don't need it, you will not learn it. How long really depends on who you are, where you are and the time you are willing to invest.
Great video. It took me 10 months to get 2 DSH 3 in two differents Universities here in Germany starting from zero. I am a french speaker… I came here with a B2 and I’ve done my DSH without doing C1 German courses

@@meels9 Hii You could start with the book "Begegnungen Deutsch als Fremdsprache A1+", but the A1 course by Max might be better for you if you start from scratch. I've also done some videos on this topic, but they're in French. You can check them out and use the subtitles if you want, as there are many things to pay attention to when learning a new language.
My german level is A2 and ive been living in Germany for a year. I go to school here and i can barely understand the language. I wanna cry and go back to my lovely country. Too bad I can't. School is starting the day after tomorrow. So I hope I will survive. I WANNA CRY SO BAD. Wish me luck guys.
I have wanted to study german for 2 years, been to Munich for 90 days in those 2 years, and am not even A1 proficient. Spent thousands on at home materials and courses and can't even fluently read children's books and English is my native language. I work 84 hours a week so it's tough to get time and motivation. Going to Germany to study November 1st just not sure what school yet. I heard you read every comment hoping you read mine. Cheers 🍻
Really appreciable video. I understood what you want to say in this entire video is to learn 2X everyday using effective resources to enhance your level and Complete all levels in a short interval of time. 4 hours per day 8 hours per day 5 days per week 5 days per week A1 level = 1 months A1 level = 0.5 months A2 level = 2 months A2 level = 1 months B1 level = 4 months B1 level = 2 months B2 level = 6 months B2 level = 3 months C1 level = 9 months C1 level = 4.5 months C2 level = 12 months C2 level = 6 months Apologies if i understood differently what you want to say. Waiting for your response for clarification of mine confusion. vielen dank für diese information.🙏
I read and listen german daily, I can understand almost everything but I don’t know my level... I started to study in january... Austrian german is complicated, but I keep trying, from Germany and Switzerland are easy
Hey! I am 14, and looking to go to a German University in the future. I have been doing Duolingo casually, sometimes skipping months. I know this won't get me through C1 fast enough because I have been on that app for nearly 2 years and I'm still on A1 level. I don't have much of any thing that could improve my German besides the internet and Duolingo. My parents don't have enough money to get me into a proper German class right now, but I am passionate and really want to get my German to C2 ( C1 Is ok as well) by the time I'm 18. I really enjoy your videos and they also give me hope that I'll reach my rather distant dream. Thank you :)
Hello. Good morning from Uzbakistan. Bro, I have been watching you since 2023 and you are absolutely helping me to know about Germany. Everything you are doing and sharing are complete useful. My German language level is A1. I reached this level in 2 months. And now, I need your help. Can you provide me with some online recourses? Thank you ✊✊✊
I am about to complete my A2 level in 3 weeks then I will start learning b1 and I have still one and a half year left before I come to Germany for study ❤ luv ur videos bro respect from Pakistan ❤🇵🇰🇩🇪
If I only count the months that I have been learning German it comes out to a little over 4 years. I feel somewhere between B2 and C1. I have 450 Hours of listening time. (Very focused listening) and have spent another 300 hour or so reading. I would say that matches up somewhat closely with the number in the video. so around 700~ hours of study. I have spent almost zero time speaking. So my speaking would be at a A1, but I think if I really focused on it for 3 months I could get to a B2 level.
I am an Asian and my mother language is mandarin. To be frank , I took straightly ten years to get to C1 and I’ve memorized up to ten thousand words .Even though he process of learning is quite tough, but once you are already sophisticated at one language ,you’ll definitely figure out it’s relatively easy to comprehend a new language.I am recently on my path to learn German,and I feel that either my absorptiion and comprehensive degrees has drastically increased that even surpasses my naturally first language.😂
Yes, learning to pass the exam can be done in under a year, but it will never make you feel authentically fluent. It takes 3 years of constant interaction with german-speaking people to sound good
I just started learning German and i immediately saw words i could recognise in french and english as im fluent in both language, and damn, its not easy but its so worth it. The words change of meaning and nature with other words, a bit like chinese, but with rules i dont know, even without it's not too difficult to understand.
Thank you ! Just got a placement in Austria and I was so nervous of not being able to learn at least A1 to ask for directions and stuff when i arrive😅.
German is perfect for me cause Norwegian is so similar to German I have learned German for 1. Minutes and these are the words I can say milch kaffe und
After five years I'm doing the last C1 course at the Goethe Institut and feeling like I need to just go live in Germany to get a real C1 outcome. The B2 test went okay, but I have doubts I could do the C1 one any time soon.
I live in Hungary, and I self taught English to the point, that I am going to have a C1 level English exam (I am currently 14) but I need to learn German, if I want to study in a German speaking country and I am really bad at it. An other thing, that doesn’t help, that I don’t have any friends who can speak German. So yeah, this will be hard.
Back to ukraine i learn English starting from pre-school in 5 years and up to the end of university. After university i could not find a decent job in international company because my english was something like A2 i guess :) in few years after i probably increase it to B1 and found a decent job. Now, in my 30th i receiced a job offer in UK and had to pass at least B1. I secured B1 without a problem and now living in uk for 2 years already. But overall after so many years of learning i could say that environment and motivation is super important. In Ukraine we dont have a lot of foreigners and so it is really hard to find a motivation as u never exchange language with anyone. I found a proper motivation when i switched to EU server in moba game back to uni times, at least i improved my speaking and writing a bit
@maxyoko ~ Hi, I would like to ask about that, what I can learn now as C1or C2 in German language. I am Vacation but still I would like to be in touch with german language.
It is essential that one quits learning German via one's native tongue, or one will always be stuck in a "learning German" mode. Like it is for the Germans, one must move to the cognitive association mode of that which applies to the sounds of German. That's the really difficult part :-)
Depends if you want to learn German or just get 60 marks in an exam. It took me 7 years to get a good pass in C1. B2 was split into B2.1 and B2.2 and same with C1. So those two levels alone took 4 academic years. A1 and A2 and B1 all an academic year each. I am working on the principal that C2 cannot be done in under 2 years as this is near native fluency.
@@neilfazackerley7758 ich möchte dir 3 Fragen stellen, 1 was ist deine Muttersprache, denn das Sprachlernen wird manchmal durch unsere Muttersprache beeinflusst zb jemand , der seine Muttersprache chinesische ist , wird schwerer finden, deutsch zu lernen in Gegensatz zu jemandem der seine Muttersprache englisch ist . Bemerkung die Sprache die wir in der Schule gelernt haben sollen nicht wie unsere Muttersprache anerkannt , außer wenn du in diesem System dein Gymnasium oder Grundschule besucht hast. 2 hast du an einer Sprachschule deutsch gelernt ? wenn ja wie fand der Kurs statt, was ich damit meine, machtest du intensiven Kurs oder 3 mal pro Woche oder 1 mal pro Woche, das kann auch alles ändern. 3 was war dein Ziel. Ich weiß nicht wieso aber laut einer Studie kann unser Ziel unser Sprachlernen beschleunigen.
@@billryanmewouoyepndjouo6949 ich komme aus Großbritannien. Ich habe Deutsch beim Goethe Institut Prüfungszentrum in Manchester gelernt. Wir hatten 3 Stunden einmal pro Woche plus Hausaufgabe. Mein Ziel war fließend Deutsch zu sprechen un die Goethe C1 zu bestehen.
@@neilfazackerley7758 ein anderes Ding, das ich dir sagen muss, gibt es heutzutage viele Vorbereitungen auf Sprachprüfungen online , die erleichtert einfach alles. Jemand muss kein fließendes Deutsch sprechen oder gute Deutschkenntnisse haben, um diese Prüfungen zu bestehen. Deshalb haben viele Studierenden am Anfang Probleme in ihrem Studium .
Yes, these are two different things. And achieving C2 definitely takes longer than two years, I agree. However, the more you study, the faster you make progress. Reaching B2 in a year is doable with sufficient effort.
Ok so here we go, as of today I started to learn German, and the thing is I'm desperate, and I NEED IT !, my level is basically knowing the alphabet which takes a day to learn. I will send update under this comment section as a chore and way of keeping my head clear, so lets see how fast can some one really learn German ! next update: 31 August.
I’m currently a sophomore in American high school, but I want to go to a Universität and study in Germany. Can I rely on apps like Babbel or Duolingo to learn the basics? Or do you recommend any better sites or apps? Also are there any other important things I should know before moving?
I should probably be somewhere in B2 but i started when i was really young and had no idea how to study, then i took a nearly year long break so im trying to come back from that. I think im A2 or B1
These numbers strike me as really unrealisitic to be honest. I know for a fact native English speakers master Spanish (a bit) faster than German in all cases. When I had studied these number of hours in Spanish, a lot of it even working 1:1 with a teacher, I wasn't at these levels. Maybe theses are classroom hours and you have to double them to get true hours of study? That seems more possible... (I learned Spanish as an already advanced language learner, so it wouldn't be reasonable to assume I was "learning it the wrong way" in this case..) C1 or C2 sound reasonable as-is with the numbers given & vocab size for the tests. But there's no way a native has a vocabulary that small.
Hello Max! What 'Speedy German' are you talking about ?! I don't see it in the description. Can you type the link in here please. Your video was helpful. Thank you.
I started learning german at the end of october 2023 , gave my b1 Goethe exam in may and had cleared all the exams in one shot .. my results 1) sprechen -- 69 Lesen--93 Hören--73 Schreiben--79 Now im preparing for b2...
I’m a VERY new German speaker I’m not even A1 I started studying yesterday alone and I’m 13 I’m using doulingo is me struggling to remember a word from the first day is bad or is it normal ? Cuz I just started yesterday I will go to Germany next summer I kinda of keep forgetting words and idk if it’s bad or not cuz I’m not even lvl A1 and I’m 13 I want to learn Germany so badly
i have been learning english since 8 years in school. I never learned it myself. now i am 16 and i have a2+ level. i also started to learn german in june and now i have a1 level. as for russian it was too hard to start learn english in school furthermore there was ugly teachers which have a0 level and couldn't correctly read words. there is only in 9th grade i have fine teacher.
It really depends who were kept in mind while making those frameworks. For us Indians who are multilingual and knows 2-3 language on average Germany is not that difficult to learn considering it is bit similar to English. So, for us around 6-10 months is enough to reach B2 level.
You are inspiration for all those who think after year drop or gap year they will not be admitted to German universities but I would love to know your year drop story 😮😮
Hello Max, So I want to study in Germany by fall 2025 and I am zero in German rn. I started A1 with a teacher but I was really confused so I think I am gonna start with your course and see where it goes. btw I am a fluent English speaker so realistically do you think I will be able to reach B2 in the span of year?
Well I'm well into my teens and last year my school(igcse) started a FIT in deutch A1 course as an after school activity with the exam at the end of the course at the local gothe institute and i passed with 46/60. In the beginning, my school starts MFL(multi foreign language)(French or German)lessons in the regular time table after year 2 and i was in my school since year 1 .My first German teacher was good but i was like 7 years old at the time and she left after my second mfl year. Following that, all of the teachers were mediocre at best and i didn't really learn much until year 7 when we got a new German teacher who was good but couldn't he didn't have control over the classroom and we were only 7 out of 20 students in the classroom learning German, the rest was French. He also relied on the fact that we knew proper German at the said level to which we didn't. For example we had a spelling bee this year and i got into the final round and it was y9 vs y8 vs y7 in English, German, French and we were supposed to say the words letter by letter to the corresponding's word's language alphabet and i didn't know the alphabet and i had to learn it like 20 mins before the spelling bee started and ofc i forgot about some letters like the h,i,j,k,v,w ofc in German and don't get me wrong I'm a high 80s and 90s student but because we usually spoke English during the mfl session i forgot the alphabet when i took it in year 2 .In year 8 I took A2 and it the FIT class is only like 13 students and we and the same teacher(the one who couldn't keep control of the class) and i was half a grade away from just passing which has only happened to me like once or twice when i was young. I have visited Germany twice. I could understand some words here and there and could get past an interaction so long as it is in formal German and not in an accent. And now i don't have time to retake A2 and i want to study post grad aeronautical engineering in Germany. So yeah that's basically my whole problem with German and its almost impossible for me to learn German from the start again
Just started German a couple of days ago, doing about 2 ish hours a day and then trying to apply it in my day to day (either in my head or verbally). This video was really helpful, I reckon I may need to put more work in haha, would you happen to have any good German content to consume?
@@AaronXie-x6y I'm using Duolingo and this UA-cam channel called "Learn German". I've found the videos really helpful as you get a better grip on how to pronounce things properly as it isn't text to speech. If you have any other good sources I'd love to hear them, hope this helps :)
Hey! I find your contents really really helpful. You're the only German UA-camr I can rely on 😅. And I would be super grateful if you would answer this question. I have a GED diploma, as far as I know GED is not accepted in Germany. On the other hand, since Germany is a federal country, is there a chance of me getting accepted in a German public uni in some states? Would SAT help? Even though I may not be accepted directly, do I still have a hope for at least studienkolleg?? And does that rule also apply on Ausbildung? Do I at very least stand a chance for Ausbildung 😢? Or has the country already established a rule like "We don't accept GED anywhere" ?. I've been learning German that's why it is my dream destination if possible Thank you for reading!!!
do i need c1 to study economics at university in bonn/ koln/ dusseldorf? I dont think i am going to learn german so fast (today i ened a1 course), but i really dont want to skip year to learn language...
What level of German is required to get TDN4 overall!? I am planning to finish B2 and do C1.1. Will that be enough for a Testdaf TDN4? Or is B2 enough?
TDN4 is between B2 and C1, maybe more like C1.1 TestDaF is one of the more difficult exams, so make sure to look at C1 material and do a lot of exam preparation
Hello max I'm the person who is in Germany and wanted learn german as fast as possible i believe in your speedy german course however i would like to know if there is any discount pr something who wants learn a1+a2+b1 in budle course with discount? There are many courses in market but i have my solid trust in yourself. So wanted hear your thoughts on this and it's important for me as well
Hey, all the students who enroll in A1 automatically qualify for a discount on A2, B1, and so on. I'm going to release bundles with a discount once I get the other levels ready I'm currently working on the A2 course to launch it as fast as possible without compromising quality :)
Hey can you review Bharat in germany institute's faster german course they claims to teach A1 german in 2 weeks, A2 german in 1 month and B1 german in 6 weeks and B2 german in 2 month overall A1 to B2 in just 5 months is that even possible?? Or it is just a marketing gimmick??
Although I have nothing against Bharat (I even got featured in one of his videos) but his programs seem quite sketchy Unfortunately, I saw this video recently and it confirms what I've been hearing from a lot of people over the last months: ua-cam.com/video/3Kl3ptqrX-8/v-deo.htmlsi=mOZMMfMI0j7tFn0F I was quite shocked to hear that but let me know what your opinion on all of this is
Hey. How do the classrooms look in german universities and whats the lecture duration. Secondly, during class of you need to go out, can you leave and return bavk to the class?
Thank you for enrolling ❤️ To be honest, I can recommend you study as much as you can But a healthy pace is two to four hours a day, this is what most people go for. In case you study more, you can finish the course even faster
@@maxyoko ohh awesome buddy. BTW i am comming in Munich in 3 years. will you be there after 3 years from now ? cause I really wanna meet you. You helped me a Lot. ❤
I think that those levels are not really representative of the language skills needed for interacting with a native speaker. The passing grades or certificates that one can obtain after some tests are only a fraction of what is really required for real communication. And living in Germany doesn't mean it will be easy to find native speakers who would be comfortable talking with a foreigner... teachers of German 😅
I got TELC B2 93%+ in 7 months.
It was very difficult for me and that's why I'm incredibly happy. Besides, I've been expecting results for almost six weeks!
March 23 - visa and arrival (0 German, no preposition)
May 23 - the first language lesson
November 23 - A2 exam
January 24 - B1 exam
February 24 - LiD exam
May 24 - B2 exam
It took 14 months from visa (full zero) to B2.
It took 7 months from A1 to B2.
In fact, from March to October 23, progress was minimal (I worked, traveled and did my homework at a minimum).
From October to February, I studied hard, and in 3.5 months of classes, part-time from A1 reached B1 (DTZ).
In February, I did a naturalization test (it requires reading practice, so passive classes).
In March, I dealt with courses, schools, documents and education.
In April and May, for 2 months I studied fulltime every day 8+ hours and from B1 reached B2.
If you remove the first months, all weekends and February, add time and discipline (conditionally, if I were a non-working student), you can learn in 4-5 months probably.
Funny enough is that in June I was was doing math and all sorts of career/academic research, which means there was less practice and I forgot a lot.
So that’s it.
Anyone can learn the language, you just meed to spend a little time:)
What was the cost of telc b2 exam?
And could you say the cost and duration of each level language course .
How did you get visa without prior German knowledge?
Very impressive ❤️
Du hast nur für eine Prüfung gelernt. Ein b2 zu erreichen, braucht man doppelt so lange.
I've self-studied, got my B2 in 7-8 months and now I'm studying in a Studienkolleg and for DSH III , it requires dedication but also enjoying the process otherwise you'll experience burn-out but the point is it's possible. ❤

That’s so inaccurate. It takes a lot more time. Very misleading information
This is so wrong lmao. It takes almost an year to study b2 fluently. And that only happens if you can spent time daily for learning.
@@glittering_insect1059 that's correct. German has a lot of vocabulary that are completely foreign to someone who doesn't speak a Germanic language already like swedish or danish
One year = A2/B1 , it depends on guidelines and person
C1 should be at least 1.3-1.5 years if the person is really interested in the language and how much time he spends reading during a day,Depending on the person also
I learned b1 in 6 month..
Then i prepered 1 month for exam questions ( goethe b1 )
I passed the exam..
Speaking 83
Reading 71
Writing 79
Listening 60 ( passing mark )
Listening was so much hard because they dont repeat the questions..
Now i am prepering for b2 ecam since 2 monthes...i will take the exam after 45 days..
So for b2 level it will take me around 10 months..
Note : i live in my home country- and i learn alone..
So if ypu live in germany you csn learn faster.
Note 2: i learned german daily for 5 hours...if you you learn 2 hours per week...it will takes years to finish b1 level even
If my guy was in Germany he would be unstoppable. Holy shit good results, keep up

Let's goo, keep pushing 🫶
Another banger video! My German level is C1+, it took me around 3-4 years to reach here.
I think there are a lot of factors influencing the time required to learn German and reach certain levels, some people have amazing polyglot characteristics that help them to learn any language faster. I believe it's the left hemisphere of the brain which concerns learning languages and some people just have a stronger left brain.
Another aspect to reaching certain levels is, some people have language certificates for certain levels but it doesn't really correspond to their IRL skills, like as a foreigner myself, I've met a lot of people having b1/b2 certificates but when you hear them speak German, they barely correspond to what I would say is A2 level. So it just shows flaws in the testing systems like Telc/Goethe where you can basically hard-grind their testing patterns and obtain language certificate but your actual language skills are still below what the certificate states.
Anyway, I loved this video and I appreciate the efforts you put into these.
Yes, it's truly fascinating to discover that when it comes to speaking, that is language skill subset where people tend to fall apart (myself included). A recurring theme I have seen in group classes, is that most of us have our introduction down pat. I have learned that the only thing I can tell from someone's introduction is how well they can pronounce German when they have thoroughly practiced the lines (aside from their name, country of residence, etc).
But then I have seen the same people, again myself included, fall apart when they speak. And it's no wonder. Speaking is the most brain intensive of the language tasks and even more so with German because of the large number of complex and asymmetric declinations and conjugations. When you listen or read, you don't have to know the genders (except for comprehension some times when it comes to singular vs. plural), you don't have to have your declinations rigorously practiced, etc. However, you do need them when writing, but with writing you have all the time you need to figure it out. When speaking you have the worst of all worlds because not only does make prominent *every* weakness in your skill set, but you also have to deal with whatever level of self-conscious behavior you suffer *and* stress of public speaking! In a weird way it's one of the most stressful yet exhilarating parts of learning a foreign language. :)
Can u tutor me 😭😭😭😭😭😭
Exactly,your comment is realistic. This video isn't real, and if it is, it's rare cases. I have been learning german for 2.5 years, and I "reach" b2 level in 8 months(20 hrs per week). Could I speak b1 level german when I reach b2 ? The answer is no! I was completely lost most of the time in b2, and I still took the telc test, I failed it by one point. What's the point of passing the b2 certification test when you can barely speak b1 ? Oh, I can't forget to mention, I live in germany. I also can't forget to mention I speak Spanish and english fluently, so learning languages for me isn't impossible, but I think these videos set very unrealistic goals and basically set people for failure.
Let's say I'm not a genius to be speaking b2 level in 8 months, but neither of 100other classmates I met ? So how likely is this ?
Im currently taking b2 for the 3rd time ! First two times were intensive back to back and then I took a break of 4- months and now I'm taking it for a 3rd time and know I know I belong in b2 bc everything else it's too easy. I'm frustrated bc I can't get past this damn level. Listening b2 german is fine. I watch movies and shows in german. My problem is that it's hard to discuss specific topics. I can't wait to get past this already.
@@leandrorodriguez4444 Good points. On top of that, I think it's universally understood that we are very quick to judge people how well they speak a language, and that "ancient" part of the mind is not tolerant at all. I have to remind myself that the person speaking broken English to me, is speaking it better than my German. When I speak German, I feel that fear very keenly about being my intelligence judged harshly by listeners, and that compounds the problem many times more!
I learn german in 6 months. Afterthat , I attempt German board 9 th class ( got 90+%)and now I'm in 10 th grade ❤
Great Video Max!
I agree, you can practically learn A1-C1 in 8 Months.
As you said, the way to do that is to take intensive courses and make German learning your central goal, that's how I did it in less than 8 Months. If you learn it part-time, it will take much longer.
C1 in 8 months is very impressive! 💪

Pls tell me how you reached c1
I'm trying to get to b1 one and with my English knowledge is eays to understand but idk where to begin
Hi Max, I just started learning German about a 1.5 weeks and I am very happy with my progress. I practice approximately 3.5hrs per day but what makes it easy for me is understanding the grammar behind the german language along with the pronunciations have helped me to leverage my english grammar as a native speaker.
Yeah, the grammar is the hard part. Well, depending on what language(s) you come from. One concepts can be quite hard when the native language doesn't have them. Like gendered nouns or cases.
@@HappyBeezerStudioseven in other languages where you have genders those are sadly 50% different so always gamble with German words! Unless one memorises with articles from scratch
@@catherin77 grammatical cases are also a thing that is vastly different in execution compared to english. English has three and only uses them on pronouns, german has four and the nouns themselves are changed.
On the other hand, english has two very distinct present tenses that make the context clear ("I eat" vs "I am eating"), while German requires adding stuff to create the context.
I am studying German now and I can say one thing - I find German much easier than English. I have studied English since school, but I can't speak that language. But German is clearer, more logical, there is structure, there are rules. Words are read the way they're written. In English you have to guess how to pronounce words....
yes, you're right
It's your opinion
It all depends which languages you already know or your mother tongue. English is my 2nd language but having lived in English speaking environment for 20years I think in that language and became bi-lingual. German has complex conjugation, genders and cases!
No
@@Aqil.Samedov Что вы имеете в виду?
What you are saying about learning German in Germany seems rather reasonable. If we look at a Goethe Institute Language Program in Germany, their approach in the 1980's was 8 weeks, 6 days a week and 6 hours a day per level of proficiency. For the 4 months I was at such at language school ,that worked for me and most of the students in attendance. Since then I am more interested in learning local dialects from Austria and Switzerland. I put the least amount of emphasis on learning the Grammar and more on hearing and reading comprehension, followed by annunciation and thinking in that language variant. Don't for get to consume some of of the German styled food and beverages in enhancing your learning abilities. Art and Music live performances are also highly effective.
I started learning German 5 years ago. I never took any paid courses, because it wasn't necessary, I wanted to proceed at my own pace. I completed Duolingo's course in maybe 6 months (I still do it just to maintain my streak).
I then moved to the official app called A1-Deutsch by VHS. Completed it in 1 month and passed the Goethe exam with 89%
Same for A2, I used A2-Deutsch by VHS. Got 79% on the exam.
Came to Germany for master's (in English), took courses at the university and kept doing B1-Deutsch. After that I moved onto B2-Beruf (coz B2-Deutsch doesn't exist). I don't intend to take an exam until the citizenship process requires it.
On the side, I watch German cartoons and talk to my work colleagues and fellow students in German, just for fun. Germans say my German is close to C1, non-Germans say it is between B1 and B2. I think the non-Germans are more honest in this case :D.
Super interesting overview. I cannot spend 20 hours a week learining German, but this has helped me have more realistic expectations about my progress based on the actual time spent. Thanks!
Learning a language is not a sprint but a marathon, to reach proficiency or native level will take Langer, I'm talking about Goethe certification, I'm talking about the real fluency and proficiency that are demanded in some linguistic professions l
totally agree. Clearing 60 marks in an exam is not enough to work in a profession.
@mkpop-s2i I agree. None of these tests imply someone has mastered or is fluent in a language. However there are different definitions of what fluency means, so you just have to go with the criteria on the CEFR to show what you can do.
Took me 4 years to be fluent in German. (And I live and study in Austria for 3 of them) - means I can speak with natives and write e-mails pretty quick nowadays, even 6 months ago I struggled. Only recently kinda fixed my accent.
C1 gave me almost nothing in this language btw, I think these exams dont show the real picture. I got C1 in a 1.5 years of learning, just by learning out dialogues for the speaking part - my real output level was like A2 at best. I suggest everyone to ignore these sorta certified "achievements" - you're like half way up there, keep your routines up. My mistake was to stop immersing as hard, but even living in the country you should keep reading at least 1 hour a day and watch TV shows. C1 = you get basics down, but not harder verbs, not adjectives, not Deagentivierung, not Nominalisierung or Redewendungen.
I did first year through refold, then uni language course for a semester, then 2 years of Uni.
Gerne würde auch ich meine persönlichen Erfahrungen teilen, was das Deutschlernen angeht. Ich mache das absichtlich auf Deutsch, denn es geht ja hier schließlich um das Deutsche. So kann man gleichzeitig auch sein Leseverstehen verbessern:). Ihr könnt gerne die Übersetzungsfunktion benutzen, falls ihr etwas nicht so gut versteht.
Mein erster Kontakt mit der deutschen Sprache war Anfang Februar 2023, als ich begonnen habe, einen Integrationskurs zu besuchen. An der Stelle gilt es zu erwähnen, dass ich vorher keinerlei Vorkenntnisse hatte und wirklich bei null angefangen habe. Es ging so weit, dass ich nicht einmal alle Buchstaben des deutschen Alphabets wie Umlaute kannte. Nach ungefähr 5-6 Monaten war ich bereits in der Lage, die normale Sprache relativ gut zu verstehen und etwas zu antworten, was allerdings nicht ansatzweise das war, was ich mir gewünscht habe. Also ging es weiter und im Oktober - nach ungefähr 8 Monaten aktiven Lernens - habe ich meine erste Deutschprüfung abgelegt, und zwar den DTZ B1. Die Ergebnisse waren - wenig überraschend - sehr gut. Im November war dann mein erster Deutschkurs zu Ende und ich musste mir einen weiteren Kurs suchen. Jedoch war es etwas schwierig, direkt mit dem nächsten Kurs anzufangen, was daran lag, dass es Jahresende war und es keine freien Plätze in herkömmlichen Deutschkursen gab.
Damit musste ich mich halt abfinden und darauf hoffen, zum Jahresbeginn einen Platz zu bekommen. Mitte Januar ging dann endlich mein B-2 Kurs los, den ich allerdings nach eineinhalb Monaten abgebrochen habe. Im Zeitraum zwischen November und Januar habe ich nämlich viel selber gelernt und vergleichsweise viel Kontakt mit Muttersprachlern gehabt. All diese Anstrengungen hatten zur Folge, dass ich mich gut genug darauf vorbereitet fühlte, eine B2 Prüfung abzulegen, ohne den im Januar begonnenen Kurs zu Ende absolviert zu haben. Denn endlich war ich imstande, mich spontan und relativ fließend zu diversen Themen auf Deutsch auszudrücken und beinahe alles, was mir gesagt wird, zu verstehen. Also habe ich mich für die Goethe B2 Prüfung angemeldet, zu der ich Anfang Februar 2024 hingegangen bin. Nach ca. 3 Wochen nach der Prüfung habe ich dann das B2 Zertifikat mit dem Prädikat sehr gut erhalten. Neben der Prüfungsvorbereitung habe ich mich in der Zeit auch mit der Suche nach einem guten C1 Kurs beschäftigt und mir einen Tag vor der B2 Prüfung einen Platz in einem studienvorbereitenden C1 Kurs sichern können, der im März 2024 beginnen sollte. Dies war ein viermonatiger Intensivkurs, den ich logischerweise bis zu Ende besucht habe. Im letzten Monat dieses Kurses lag der Fokus fast ausschließlich auf der Vorbereitung auf Telc C1 Hochschule - eine Prüfung, mit der dieser Kurs endete und den alle Teilnehmer, deren Ziel das Studium an einer Uni war, mitgeschrieben haben. Zu ihnen habe auch ich gezählt und die Prüfung Ende Juni 2024 abgelegt. Vor wenigen Tagen habe ich endlich das begehrte Zertifikat mit dem so sehr gewünschten Prädikat sehr gut erhalten, das mir nun so viele Türen öffnet.
Abschließend lässt sich festhalten, dass es bei mir ungefähr eineinhalb Jahre harter Arbeit gedauert hat, das C1 Niveau zu erreichen und es mit dem entsprechenden Zertifikat nachzuweisen. Eine genaue Stundenanzahl kann ich leider nicht genau ermitteln, doch es war fast immer ein ganz normaler Acht-Stunden-Arbeitstag plus Wochenende.
Das Wichtigste dabei ist, dass ihr ein klares Ziel vor Augen habt, wofür ihr das Ganze macht, und jeden Tag darauf hinarbeitet. Ansonsten würde ich behaupten, dass es nahezu unmöglich ist, große Erfolge zu erzielen, ohne für sich die Frage "wofür ich das mache" beantwortet zu haben. Viel Erfolg!
Thumbs up for writing , champ google translated it, now reading.
Danke, dass du deine Erfahrungen teilst 🫶
Extrem starke Leistung!
Wow, als Muttersprachler ist dein Kommentar wirklich super geschrieben. Hättest du es nicht erwähnt, würde ich glauben, dass du auch Deutscher bist. :)
Das Einzige, was mir auffällt, ist, dass Nicht-Muttersprachler oft formaler schreiben. Als Beispiel in deinem Kommentar: „...gilt es zu erwähnen“. Das ist perfektes Deutsch, aber Deutsche hätten eher geschrieben „...sollte ich erwähnen“. Das ist aber auch nur Meckern auf hohem Niveau und nichts, was dein Deutsch schlechter macht. Es will auch nicht jeder wie ein Muttersprachler wirken, und das sollte auch nicht immer das Ziel sein. Ich liebe es, Menschen zuzuhören, die die deutsche Sprache gelernt haben, um zu sehen, wie schön die Sprache auch anders genutzt werden kann.
Viel Erfolg weiterhin beim Lernen, auch wenn es sich so anhört, als müsstest du nicht mehr viel lernen. ;)

There are 3rd generation migrants living here (Their parents came here in the 60s or early 70s) and they only speak broken German, even though they are born here. There are also two levels to learning German: The individual and social level. You need to have the drive to learn it and the social incentive and requirement to do so. If you don't want it, you won't do it. If you don't need it, you will not learn it. How long really depends on who you are, where you are and the time you are willing to invest.

I've also done some videos on this topic, but they're in French. You can check them out and use the subtitles if you want, as there are many things to pay attention to when learning a new language.
My german level is A2 and ive been living in Germany for a year. I go to school here and i can barely understand the language. I wanna cry and go back to my lovely country. Too bad I can't. School is starting the day after tomorrow. So I hope I will survive. I WANNA CRY SO BAD. Wish me luck guys.
Good luck 🎉
@@motivationtostrive1216 thank you 🔥
Does It Traselate If i speak German?
Wie gut kannst du Deutsch Sprechen?
@@LancineCamara-qy9eb what do you mean?
Thank you for the video! It came in time..❤
Every Saturday ❤️
In the official German Integration Curs schedule is 700 h almost a year to take the B1 level. I know it quite well because I am doing it
I have wanted to study german for 2 years, been to Munich for 90 days in those 2 years, and am not even A1 proficient. Spent thousands on at home materials and courses and can't even fluently read children's books and English is my native language.
I work 84 hours a week so it's tough to get time and motivation.
Going to Germany to study November 1st just not sure what school yet. I heard you read every comment hoping you read mine.
Cheers 🍻
Respect your discipline!
Learning German will become easier once you are in Germany. Being in a German environment really helps :)
Really appreciable video.
I understood what you want to say in this entire video is to learn 2X everyday using effective resources to enhance your level and Complete all levels in a short interval of time.
4 hours per day 8 hours per day
5 days per week 5 days per week
A1 level = 1 months A1 level = 0.5 months
A2 level = 2 months A2 level = 1 months
B1 level = 4 months B1 level = 2 months
B2 level = 6 months B2 level = 3 months
C1 level = 9 months C1 level = 4.5 months
C2 level = 12 months C2 level = 6 months
Apologies if i understood differently what you want to say. Waiting for your response for clarification of mine confusion.
vielen dank für diese information.🙏
I read and listen german daily, I can understand almost everything but I don’t know my level... I started to study in january... Austrian german is complicated, but I keep trying, from Germany and Switzerland are easy
I took German for 2 semesters as an elective course.
I love your content max, would love to meet you one day, I'm coming to Germany in October 2024.
Yeah great
That's awesome!
Yeah, thinking of organizing meetups in the future :)
Hey! I am 14, and looking to go to a German University in the future. I have been doing Duolingo casually, sometimes skipping months. I know this won't get me through C1 fast enough because I have been on that app for nearly 2 years and I'm still on A1 level. I don't have much of any thing that could improve my German besides the internet and Duolingo. My parents don't have enough money to get me into a proper German class right now, but I am passionate and really want to get my German to C2 ( C1 Is ok as well) by the time I'm 18.
I really enjoy your videos and they also give me hope that I'll reach my rather distant dream. Thank you :)
Hello. Good morning from Uzbakistan. Bro, I have been watching you since 2023 and you are absolutely helping me to know about Germany. Everything you are doing and sharing are complete useful. My German language level is A1. I reached this level in 2 months. And now, I need your help. Can you provide me with some online recourses? Thank you ✊✊✊
Das ist es, was ich bis jetzt gelernt habe, aber ich habe immer noch Probleme, es zu lesen und zu verstehen😅
I am about to complete my A2 level in 3 weeks then I will start learning b1 and I have still one and a half year left before I come to Germany for study ❤ luv ur videos bro respect from Pakistan ❤🇵🇰🇩🇪
Wish you the best ❤️
If I only count the months that I have been learning German it comes out to a little over 4 years. I feel somewhere between B2 and C1. I have 450 Hours of listening time. (Very focused listening) and have spent another 300 hour or so reading. I would say that matches up somewhat closely with the number in the video. so around 700~ hours of study.
I have spent almost zero time speaking. So my speaking would be at a A1, but I think if I really focused on it for 3 months I could get to a B2 level.
B1 - 2500 words - 1 year and 9 months
with 10w/d (which is really hard, given that you have to revise old words)
don't sell your folks a giant hope!
I am an Asian and my mother language is mandarin. To be frank , I took straightly ten years to get to C1 and I’ve memorized up to ten thousand words .Even though he process of learning is quite tough, but once you are already sophisticated at one language ,you’ll definitely figure out it’s relatively easy to comprehend a new language.I am recently on my path to learn German,and I feel that either my absorptiion and comprehensive degrees has drastically increased that even surpasses my naturally first language.😂
Right now am literally 0 in Germany i don't know anything but i will start my journey this day.
I have a goal and i will achieve it whatever it takes
Yes, learning to pass the exam can be done in under a year, but it will never make you feel authentically fluent.
It takes 3 years of constant interaction with german-speaking people to sound good
I just started learning German and i immediately saw words i could recognise in french and english as im fluent in both language, and damn, its not easy but its so worth it. The words change of meaning and nature with other words, a bit like chinese, but with rules i dont know, even without it's not too difficult to understand.
Thank you ! Just got a placement in Austria and I was so nervous of not being able to learn at least A1 to ask for directions and stuff when i arrive😅.
Im almost done with my A2 level. Just need to revise all the grammar topics before I head on to B1
Strong 💪
How much take time your a1, a,, 2
German is perfect for me cause Norwegian is so similar to German I have learned German for 1. Minutes and these are the words I can say milch kaffe und
After five years I'm doing the last C1 course at the Goethe Institut and feeling like I need to just go live in Germany to get a real C1 outcome. The B2 test went okay, but I have doubts I could do the C1 one any time soon.
I live in Hungary, and I self taught English to the point, that I am going to have a C1 level English exam (I am currently 14) but I need to learn German, if I want to study in a German speaking country and I am really bad at it. An other thing, that doesn’t help, that I don’t have any friends who can speak German. So yeah, this will be hard.
Back to ukraine i learn English starting from pre-school in 5 years and up to the end of university. After university i could not find a decent job in international company because my english was something like A2 i guess :) in few years after i probably increase it to B1 and found a decent job. Now, in my 30th i receiced a job offer in UK and had to pass at least B1. I secured B1 without a problem and now living in uk for 2 years already.
But overall after so many years of learning i could say that environment and motivation is super important. In Ukraine we dont have a lot of foreigners and so it is really hard to find a motivation as u never exchange language with anyone. I found a proper motivation when i switched to EU server in moba game back to uni times, at least i improved my speaking and writing a bit
@maxyoko ~ Hi, I would like to ask about that, what I can learn now as C1or C2 in German language. I am Vacation but still I would like to be in touch with german language.
It is essential that one quits learning German via one's native tongue, or one will always be stuck in a "learning German" mode. Like it is for the Germans, one must move to the cognitive association mode of that which applies to the sounds of German. That's the really difficult part :-)
Starting on 16 August 2024 at 12:25am (+3 Greenwich), wish me luck
Depends if you want to learn German or just get 60 marks in an exam. It took me 7 years to get a good pass in C1. B2 was split into B2.1 and B2.2 and same with C1. So those two levels alone took 4 academic years. A1 and A2 and B1 all an academic year each. I am working on the principal that C2 cannot be done in under 2 years as this is near native fluency.
@@neilfazackerley7758 ich möchte dir 3 Fragen stellen,
1 was ist deine Muttersprache, denn das Sprachlernen wird manchmal durch unsere Muttersprache beeinflusst zb jemand , der seine Muttersprache chinesische ist , wird schwerer finden, deutsch zu lernen in Gegensatz zu jemandem der seine Muttersprache englisch ist . Bemerkung die Sprache die wir in der Schule gelernt haben sollen nicht wie unsere Muttersprache anerkannt , außer wenn du in diesem System dein Gymnasium oder Grundschule besucht hast.
2 hast du an einer Sprachschule deutsch gelernt ? wenn ja wie fand der Kurs statt, was ich damit meine, machtest du intensiven Kurs oder 3 mal pro Woche oder 1 mal pro Woche, das kann auch alles ändern.
3 was war dein Ziel. Ich weiß nicht wieso aber laut einer Studie kann unser Ziel unser Sprachlernen beschleunigen.
@@billryanmewouoyepndjouo6949 ich komme aus Großbritannien. Ich habe Deutsch beim Goethe Institut Prüfungszentrum in Manchester gelernt. Wir hatten 3 Stunden einmal pro Woche plus Hausaufgabe. Mein Ziel war fließend Deutsch zu sprechen un die Goethe C1 zu bestehen.
@@neilfazackerley7758 ein anderes Ding, das ich dir sagen muss, gibt es heutzutage viele Vorbereitungen auf Sprachprüfungen online , die erleichtert einfach alles. Jemand muss kein fließendes Deutsch sprechen oder gute Deutschkenntnisse haben, um diese Prüfungen zu bestehen. Deshalb haben viele Studierenden am Anfang Probleme in ihrem Studium .
Yes, these are two different things. And achieving C2 definitely takes longer than two years, I agree. However, the more you study, the faster you make progress. Reaching B2 in a year is doable with sufficient effort.
@@maxyoko of course but reaching B2 does not mean your German is good. It means you got 60 marks on a test that you prepared for.
Ok so here we go, as of today I started to learn German, and the thing is I'm desperate, and I NEED IT !, my level is basically knowing the alphabet which takes a day to learn. I will send update under this comment section as a chore and way of keeping my head clear, so lets see how fast can some one really learn German ! next update: 31 August.
I’m currently a sophomore in American high school, but I want to go to a Universität and study in Germany.
Can I rely on apps like Babbel or Duolingo to learn the basics? Or do you recommend any better sites or apps? Also are there any other important things I should know before moving?
How many words do you need for B2? B1 is 3000 and C1 is 9000.
I should probably be somewhere in B2 but i started when i was really young and had no idea how to study, then i took a nearly year long break so im trying to come back from that. I think im A2 or B1
I'm first yay! Sadly I'm still under A1 level, but hoping to improve my vocabulary at a faster pace.
💪❤️
Try to form as many sentences with new words as possible
This way you associate it with a specific context and it should stay in your head longer
Finished A1 in 3 weeks now aiming for B2
How?
@@NehaSingh-in8uo I am studying full time, my aim is B2 but it will take months to reach there
A1 in three weeks is strong, keep going 🫶
Beautiful to see the progress!
@@Henok-y9o which course did you take? Or did you study on your own?
@@NehaSingh-in8uo your study resources, notes,pdf, channels, book PLEASE
These numbers strike me as really unrealisitic to be honest. I know for a fact native English speakers master Spanish (a bit) faster than German in all cases. When I had studied these number of hours in Spanish, a lot of it even working 1:1 with a teacher, I wasn't at these levels. Maybe theses are classroom hours and you have to double them to get true hours of study? That seems more possible... (I learned Spanish as an already advanced language learner, so it wouldn't be reasonable to assume I was "learning it the wrong way" in this case..) C1 or C2 sound reasonable as-is with the numbers given & vocab size for the tests. But there's no way a native has a vocabulary that small.
Hello Max! What 'Speedy German' are you talking about ?! I don't see it in the description. Can you type the link in here please.
Your video was helpful. Thank you.
Awesome. Brilliant content.🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪

Please which self study books do recommend from A1- B2
I started learning german at the end of october 2023 , gave my b1 Goethe exam in may and had cleared all the exams in one shot .. my results 1) sprechen -- 69
Lesen--93
Hören--73
Schreiben--79
Now im preparing for b2...
im studying B1 and studying for the A2 prüfung
I’m a VERY new German speaker I’m not even A1 I started studying yesterday alone and I’m 13 I’m using doulingo is me struggling to remember a word from the first day is bad or is it normal ? Cuz I just started yesterday I will go to Germany next summer I kinda of keep forgetting words and idk if it’s bad or not cuz I’m not even lvl A1 and I’m 13 I want to learn Germany so badly
Have you heard of Tempo Deutsch Book? is it good?
i have been learning english since 8 years in school. I never learned it myself. now i am 16 and i have a2+ level. i also started to learn german in june and now i have a1 level. as for russian it was too hard to start learn english in school furthermore there was ugly teachers which have a0 level and couldn't correctly read words. there is only in 9th grade i have fine teacher.
Thanks for the video, quite helpful.
If I want to work and live in Germany, what level do you recommend one to reach atleast? A C1?
I can recommend being on at least the A2 level to survive. In case you want to go for a job that requires German, B2 or C1 is necessary
It really depends who were kept in mind while making those frameworks. For us Indians who are multilingual and knows 2-3 language on average Germany is not that difficult to learn considering it is bit similar to English. So, for us around 6-10 months is enough to reach B2 level.
You are inspiration for all those who think after year drop or gap year they will not be admitted to German universities but I would love to know your year drop story 😮😮
Hello Max, So I want to study in Germany by fall 2025 and I am zero in German rn. I started A1 with a teacher but I was really confused so I think I am gonna start with your course and see where it goes. btw I am a fluent English speaker so realistically do you think I will be able to reach B2 in the span of year?
Well
I'm well into my teens and last year my school(igcse) started a FIT in deutch A1 course as an after school activity with the exam at the end of the course at the local gothe institute and i passed with 46/60. In the beginning, my school starts MFL(multi foreign language)(French or German)lessons in the regular time table after year 2 and i was in my school since year 1 .My first German teacher was good but i was like 7 years old at the time and she left after my second mfl year. Following that, all of the teachers were mediocre at best and i didn't really learn much until year 7 when we got a new German teacher who was good but couldn't he didn't have control over the classroom and we were only 7 out of 20 students in the classroom learning German, the rest was French. He also relied on the fact that we knew proper German at the said level to which we didn't. For example we had a spelling bee this year and i got into the final round and it was y9 vs y8 vs y7 in English, German, French and we were supposed to say the words letter by letter to the corresponding's word's language alphabet and i didn't know the alphabet and i had to learn it like 20 mins before the spelling bee started and ofc i forgot about some letters like the h,i,j,k,v,w ofc in German and don't get me wrong I'm a high 80s and 90s student but because we usually spoke English during the mfl session i forgot the alphabet when i took it in year 2 .In year 8 I took A2 and it the FIT class is only like 13 students and we and the same teacher(the one who couldn't keep control of the class) and i was half a grade away from just passing which has only happened to me like once or twice when i was young. I have visited Germany twice. I could understand some words here and there and could get past an interaction so long as it is in formal German and not in an accent. And now i don't have time to retake A2 and i want to study post grad aeronautical engineering in Germany.
So yeah that's basically my whole problem with German and its almost impossible for me to learn German from the start again
Just started German a couple of days ago, doing about 2 ish hours a day and then trying to apply it in my day to day (either in my head or verbally). This video was really helpful, I reckon I may need to put more work in haha, would you happen to have any good German content to consume?
Hey, Im also starting to learn German. I speak Spanish and English so I wanted to know what resources you are using as a beginner?
@@AaronXie-x6y I'm using Duolingo and this UA-cam channel called "Learn German". I've found the videos really helpful as you get a better grip on how to pronounce things properly as it isn't text to speech. If you have any other good sources I'd love to hear them, hope this helps :)
Hey! I find your contents really really helpful. You're the only German UA-camr I can rely on 😅. And I would be super grateful if you would answer this question.
I have a GED diploma, as far as I know GED is not accepted in Germany. On the other hand, since Germany is a federal country, is there a chance of me getting accepted in a German public uni in some states? Would SAT help? Even though I may not be accepted directly, do I still have a hope for at least studienkolleg??
And does that rule also apply on Ausbildung? Do I at very least stand a chance for Ausbildung 😢?
Or has the country already established a rule like "We don't accept GED anywhere" ?.
I've been learning German that's why it is my dream destination if possible
Thank you for reading!!!
do i need c1 to study economics at university in bonn/ koln/ dusseldorf? I dont think i am going to learn german so fast (today i ened a1 course), but i really dont want to skip year to learn language...
Brother, could you make a video on accommodation in Dresden city and other western side of german cities such as Leipzig etc.
What level of German is required to get TDN4 overall!? I am planning to finish B2 and do C1.1. Will that be enough for a Testdaf TDN4? Or is B2 enough?
TDN4 is between B2 and C1, maybe more like C1.1
TestDaF is one of the more difficult exams, so make sure to look at C1 material and do a lot of exam preparation
@@maxyoko Yeah although I was told that passing Testdaf is easier than passing goethe C1
Hello max I'm the person who is in Germany and wanted learn german as fast as possible i believe in your speedy german course however i would like to know if there is any discount pr something who wants learn a1+a2+b1 in budle course with discount? There are many courses in market but i have my solid trust in yourself. So wanted hear your thoughts on this and it's important for me as well
looking on it with hope
Hey, all the students who enroll in A1 automatically qualify for a discount on A2, B1, and so on. I'm going to release bundles with a discount once I get the other levels ready
I'm currently working on the A2 course to launch it as fast as possible without compromising quality :)
@@maxyoko Thankyou respected Sir for the prompt response.
Hey can you review Bharat in germany institute's faster german course they claims to teach A1 german in 2 weeks, A2 german in 1 month and B1 german in 6 weeks and B2 german in 2 month overall A1 to B2 in just 5 months is that even possible?? Or it is just a marketing gimmick??
Although I have nothing against Bharat (I even got featured in one of his videos) but his programs seem quite sketchy
Unfortunately, I saw this video recently and it confirms what I've been hearing from a lot of people over the last months: ua-cam.com/video/3Kl3ptqrX-8/v-deo.htmlsi=mOZMMfMI0j7tFn0F

Hey. How do the classrooms look in german universities and whats the lecture duration. Secondly, during class of you need to go out, can you leave and return bavk to the class?
IS IT NECESSARY TO GIVE ALL LEVEL EXAMS? or we could just directly give b2 exam after learning the previous ones?? pls tell
You can directly go for your desired level :)
I got the B1 after 1 year and 6 months🤡 (studying around 2h per day, 4 hours weekends). I don't know if this is possible for most people.
i have 66% in graduation what are my chances to get admission in german taught programs ?
Danke!!
I am A1 sadly but I can hold a good conversation over text
How many hours do you suggest a day for your A1 course cuz I just bought it today
Thank you for enrolling ❤️
To be honest, I can recommend you study as much as you can
But a healthy pace is two to four hours a day, this is what most people go for. In case you study more, you can finish the course even faster

But why would you want to learn german?
Hi Max,thank you for your amazing video…
Do I need to be C1 to start studying pharmacy at a German university?
you should check it out in their webside
I think that those levels are not really representative of the language skills needed for interacting with a native speaker. The passing grades or certificates that one can obtain after some tests are only a fraction of what is really required for real communication. And living in Germany doesn't mean it will be easy to find native speakers who would be comfortable talking with a foreigner... teachers of German 😅
U only have speedy german a1 level?
Currently working on the A2 course and the other levels will follow after that :)
