Pukka German Core Beliefs :-
FIRST - we believe that the
primary purpose of learning German is to
COMMUNICATE. It's not just about conjugating
verbs and declining adjectives. For this reason
our lessons emphasize living spoken language
above repetitive grammar.
SECOND - we believe that the
power of language is in its ability to build
RELATIONSHIPS. Our yardstick for measuring your
progress in German is calibrated in successful
human interactions and not red ticks and crosses.
THIRD - we believe that too much
traditional German language tuition has it's head
in the clouds and is out of touch with
CONTEMPORARY German culture. Our role models are
not "Goethes" of the past, but German speakers of
today!
FORTH - we believe that your
popularity with the Germans has
a lot to do with
your willingness to LET YOUR HAIR DOWN and live a
little. That's why we love teaching common
colloquial expressions, fun sayings and popular
slang.
FIFTH - we believe in YOU and
your tremendous potential to learn to speak REAL
GERMAN LINGO in double time to:
...speak German more
fluently!
...get expressive and
have a laugh!
...present a cooler
self image!
...earn street cred
and sex appeal!
...meet interesting
people!
...integrate and make
friends!
...be more successful
in Germany!
If You've Got 2 Hours A Week, We Guarantee To Work Miracles In Improving Your German
Have
you been studying German for a while but
still find yourself struggling to
understand and speak common colloquial
language? Is your German slang about as
cool as face full of zits? Are you more
confused than amused by everyday German
idioms? Do your attempts at German humour
sink like a German U-boat?
Lisa and my commitment to you is to make the time you spend perfecting your German lingo as effective and entertaining as we possibly can so you laugh more and get tongue-tied less!
I'm passionate about Pukka German because I'm determined to create the resource that I wish had been available to me when I felt so discouraged with my German that I nearly gave up. I was frustrated because despite hours of private study, I still struggled to understand - let alone hold my own - in everyday informal conversations. It's amazing to think that I was so down in the dumps that Lisa was convinced I'd quit learning German - and now I'm rapping like a local!
Of course there is a time and place for formal discussion but the fact remains that most conversations, and certainly the most enjoyable ones, will be informal. Believe it or not, I still occasionally come across German text books that hardly even bother teaching the familiar "du" form, let alone the common colloquial expressions and popular slang that's used everyday all over Germany.
If you lack confidence and struggle to express humour in your informal German conversations, chances are you're not the one to blame. Most likely nobody has ever taken the time or gone to the trouble to teach you how the majority of Germans REALLY speak with each other everyday.
FACT - few German learning resources place sufficient emphasis on teaching authentic colloquial German language and this is absolute madness!
Just why colloquial German is so neglected in the vast majority of German courses is beyond me. What I do know however, is that if you struggle with common German sayings, fun expressions and popular slang then Pukka German Pro will be of tremendous benefit to you!
Some people claim to have improved their conversational German simply by listening to our podcasts and following along with our free online transcript and vocabulary list. We are convinced however that If you spend 2 hours a week working through our Pukka Pro quizzes you will enjoy huge additional benefits and get faster, more reliable and lasting results:
...Because
you'll save time and
learn faster. With
unlimited access to our online quizzes and
downloadable PDF transcript, not only will
you perfect the lesson vocabulary but you
will learn synonyms as well as practice
and improve your German word order,
spelling and grammar.
...Because
you'll remember what
you learn. What good is it
to learn cool new expressions only to
forget them a week later? As a Pukka Pro
member you will have loads of opportunity
to practice using the new vocabulary in
context. This will not only help you to
remember it, but will save you from
embarrassing yourself by using expressions
in the wrong situation!
...Because
you'll have more fun
learning. Having fun is
central to the Pukka German philosophy.
That's why we teach more amusing
colloquial expressions than other German
courses. It's also the reason why our
quizzes include a wide variety of
interactive exercises:
...Because
you'll get jiggy
with your German. Our
Pukka Pro quizzes will help you become
more "Schlagfertig" (quick-witted) and
avoid getting tongue twisted and lost for
words. We'll have you feeling like an
insider, understanding and speaking real
German lingo and not the dull language
from dated text books.
...Because
you'll deserve
it. We're not advocates of
hyped promises of "painless fluency with
zero effort". An unavoidable truth is that
a certain amount of work is involved in
learning any worthwhile skill and some
time must be invested in order to practice
and perfect it. You will be proud of your
achievements because you would have earned
them. Our goal is to make your study time
as fun and productive as possible.
...Because
you'll be
V.I.P.. All our listeners
are special to us but without paying Pro
members, Pukka German would not exist.
Your small membership fee is a valuable
contribution that helps us keep Pukka
German fresh and innovative. Not only does
it help pay for lesson artwork, hosting
and running costs, but it also enables me
to devote time and energy developing and
expanding Pukka German so that we can help
you more. Pukka Pro members are the real
Pukka German heroes and will ALWAYS be
treated that way.
Read What Others Are Saying About Pukka German Pro
My only complaint
is that I waited so long to become a Pro
member!
Even if you enjoy and learn from the free Pukka German podcasts, there is something about putting your money on the line that really helps. Silly as it may seem, my need to 'get the most from my money' is a big motivator to be sure to work through the exercises and further my desire to improve my German.
Thanks again for a great site. It has steadily improved since I first stopped by some months ago. The only thing that hasn't changed is the lovely sound of Lisa's voice. (Of course you have obviously been thoroughly charmed by it yourself, so pardon those of us who can only listen from afar.)
All joking aside, I really enjoy the both of you and your interactive style. My only complaint is that I waited so long to become a Pro member here at Pukka German!
All the best,
Paul Harker
I especially love
the English German match up exercises ... my
German is getting better by
day!
Hello
Tyler, Hallo Lisa! I want to thank you for
your awesome german lessons! Pukka German
ROCKS!! Since I came across your
site, I am so motivated to
learn.
The dialogues are really fun, Lisa's pronouciate is beautiful and perfect speed to follow, I am also learning more English - great concept! I feel like I can actually use what I learn and my husband has a great laugh when I use what I just learn from your site.
I love doing the quizzes as well. I especially love the English German match up exercises. Also what I find the most useful for me, as I have problem building sentences, are the scrambled German phrases. I like that I can have a few tries, and when I get it right the first time, I feel SOOOO GREAT! The quizzes are much more fun than writing on my german workbook and checking it all the time in the back.
Your website is so far the only thing that could keep my attention and keep me wanting to learn more. I feel like my German is getting better by the day! Keep up the great work! And I am really looking forward to the next podcasts. Thanks a million! Keep it PUKKA!!

This will help you tremendously in being able to handle any situation thrown at you in Germany, while keeping your cool and composure.

Where you DON'T you want to be with your German
I regularly meet expats who have been in Germany for years but gave up on learning German a long time ago. Many of them understand more than it first appears but after becoming frustrated with their progress, they now actively avoid socialising in German and seem embarrassed to speak the language.
If you don't believe me stop in for a Guinness at one of Germany's many Irish pubs because this is a favourite safe haven for many English speakers. The Germans that you do find in these bars will be there to practice their English on you. Now I love a good pint of Guinness as much as the next guy, but I didn't come to Germany to be nostalgic about home and I think it a shame knowing that these people miss out on so many great opportunities.
Where you DO you want to be, and CAN be
Forget the rut that you believe your German might be in. Instead, imagine yourself six months from now understanding and speaking German confidently. You are armed with the necessary vocabulary to discuss a wide range of topics. You have an insight into German culture and an exceptional understanding of German colloquial language. You're an insider!
On top of that you've mastered some of the most important German idioms and even more importantly, you know the right moment to use them. You are well on your way to German fluency and your German buddies or family members keep telling you how impressed they are with your progress. Hell you can even understand their humour now and even better, they can understand yours!

I'm having a
blast with the exercises
I'm having a blast with the exercises. You're on to something. I'm convinced that half the German I can't understand is because of idiomatic expressions, not vocabulary or grammar. You and Lisa are helping me get over this hurdle. Thanks for all your work.
