It’s February, so ALMOST time for our semi-annual ‘Free Trial Online German Lesson’ offer on EasyReaders.Org!

The next promotion of this type won’t be until November 2021, so why not take the chance to try an online German lesson (via Skype or Zoom) with one of our friendly mother-tongue teachers, at a cost of exactly ZERO?

Note that our free online language lessons are normally priced at £20 each (you’d pay less per lesson for packs of ten, twenty or thirty 30-minute lesson credits – see prices.)

N.b. You don’t have to buy a lesson to get one free, we won’t even ask for your card details – all we need to organise your German lesson is your email address (which you see, we already have…)

When we receive your order, we’ll email you a brief questionnaire to find out your existing level in German and whether you have any particular needs or preferences for your 30-minute trial.

Be assured – this is a genuinely-free offer! But if you’re uninterested in hearing more about next week’s promotion, SCROLL DOWN NOW and click the unsubscribe link – it takes just seconds to permanently remove your email address from our database.

Offer details:

• The Free Trial Online German Lesson offer begins on Monday February 8th and ends on Sunday February 14th 2021
• There’s no need to actually DO your free lesson that week, just ‘book’ it
• This offer is for NEW STUDENTS ONLY
• After completing your online German lesson, you’ll be sent a 15% discount coupon which gets you a one-time discount on additional lessons, to incentivize you to continue (view prices)
• Besides that coupon, we have four 20%-Off promotions each year (in the spring, the summer, the fall, and at New Year), so most of our regular students pay 20% less than the prices you see in the shop, here

Browse our catalog of German lessons and ebooks, where you’ll also find free ebook downloads for learners of German and certain other languages.

You’re getting this email because, at some point in the past, you joined the mailing list at OnlineGermanClub.com.

But perhaps you’re no longer interested in learning German, and so won’t want to hear about next week’s FREE Trial Lesson offer (online, 30-minutes one-to-one with a real German teacher, normal price £20!)

In which case, we’d really prefer not to bother you. Please SCROLL DOWN and click the ‘unsubscribe’ link, which you’ll find at the bottom of this article.

You’ll be given the option to permanently remove your email address from our mailing list. It takes just a second or two.

Still here? Excellent!

There’ll be more about the FREE Trial Online Lesson offer next week, when we have everything ready…

In the meantime, though, here’s a reminder about some of the free resources we have for learning German that you might have forgotten about:

• This website, OnlineGermanClub.com, has FREE material for learning German
• DontSpeakGerman.com is a FREE online beginners’ course comprising fifty or so pages of grammar explanations, exercises, vocabulary lists and listening practice… It’s also ours!
• And not to forget our online shop, which features ebooks for learning German and online lessons with a friendly native-speaker teacher (you can try one FREE, details next week, remember?)

Bis nächste Woche!

Back in about 1980 I did a year of German at high school.

The teacher was an entertaining guy.

I remember once he put his briefcase of teaching materials (but not, I hope, his lunch) on the floor in the aisle between the rows of desks.

And jumped up and down on the top of it, in frustration.

We kids must have been a bunch of thickheads. And German seemed impossible and, well, foreign…

A lot of time has passed since then, and I’ve successfully picked up bits and pieces of other languages.

At the moment I’m learning Swedish, which (like English) has plenty in common with German.

So, perhaps the time has come to have another look at the language, especially as there’s so much great stuff on the Internet these days.

I plan to post links to the most useful resources I find.

And perhaps to pen the occasional article with study tips and summaries of what I learn…
