7 Tips To Learn German “On The Job” – As Fast As Possible
Very few German employers offer English jobs in Germany. To be precise: Only 4% of all German employers hire in English. (Chris Pyak / Jobfeed Analysis 2020).
96% of German employers will only consider you if you either speak German fluently – or at least you can explain how you will learn German on the job – very, very fast.
Here are my Top 7 Tips To Learn German “On The Job” – As Fast As Possible.
7 Tips To Learn German “On The Job” – As Fast As Possible
#1: Talk, talk, talk: Studying in your little room is good. But the fastest advantage in your German skills come from actually talking. No matter how many mistakes you make. Surround yourself with German native speakers. If you don’t live in Germany: Contact the German embassy and find out about the next German “Stammtisch”. Then meet Germans their in a relaxed atmosphere and practice, practice, practice.
#2: Take a German language course. Goethe Institut offer them around the world.
#3: Use free online tools to learn German every single day. I recommend Duolingo.
#4: Watch the free youtube German Course of Deutsche Welle.
#5: Watch German news via Deutsche Welle.
#6. Watch German children shows. They use simple language!
#7: Listen to the Immigrant Spirit Podcast with Chris Pyak. German managers talk in English about open jobs with their company. Get used to the German accent.
