Lester Said:

after learning german language can i get job in hotal industry?

We Answered:

After learning to speak German properly you could get the following jobs:
* in customer services or technical support looking after German clients,
* in engineering, as many of the big car manufacturers are German
* Teaching German as a Foreign Language
* in the Tourism sector, guiding German tourists around cities
To work in the Hotel industry you would need to do a training course in "Hotel Management" or "Tourism" in addition to speaking German.

You also need to pay more attention to your Grammar

Good luck

Which is the best institute for learning German language besides Max Muller?

We Answered:

I would strongly suggest getting a software computer program, as they are the most engaging and effective way to learn. Books are good too, if you don't have a computer.

Here are some options I've personally used, I think the best way to tackle learning a language is to use every option you can, and not just one. Use that which works, discard that which doesn't.

What is the practical way of learning German language?

We Answered:

Sounds like your school's method is immersion / the Berlitz method. The idea is that you'll learn through context as babies do. It is frustrating at first but give it some time if you can -- it really is a great way to learn.

Of course I am sure you are allowed to study on your own as well :-) and it is good you're taking the initiative. If you'd like another way of supporting your learning, buy an easy book or a magazine in a subject you like a lot along with a dictionary German -> your native language, and go for it. Comic strips can be fun, or fashion magazines (stick to the descriptions of the models at first ... you are female?).
When I was in Germany as a teenager, the book "Wir Kinder von Bahnhof Zoo" by Christiana F. had just come out. It is a haunting autobiography of a girl who became addicted to heroin when she was 12. I started reading it when I was able to understand people around me a bit (mostly teenagers), so because the book is written in "teenager language", I was able to understand it and read it quite quickly. I think it helped my German a lot, I got a better feel for the language, improved my vocabulary, moved a lot of terms from "passive" to "active knowledge" ...
Don't be afraid to browse the other sections of the bookstore, the children's and teenager's books, if you can understand the gist of the back cover and it sounds interesting, take it 'home' and try reading it. You may surprise yourself how well it will go.

Otherwise -- IMHO, learning a language is fast and easy only if you are very talented or you already know a language that is very similar, like Dutch. Hang in there ... if you're in Switzerland in an immersion course, the start will be slow but soon the day will come when you'll get a 'feel' for the language -- something I think a book just can't teach you.

Viel Glück

German Language Learning - 3 Reasons Why Learning The German Language Is Useful Today?

We Answered:

1. German is the most widely spoken language in Europe and the 3rd most popular foreign language taught worldwide. In Europe, it's only 2nd to English in terms of popularity.

2. Germany is the 3rd strongest economy in the world and home to companies like BMW, Daimler, Siemens, Lufthansa, SAP and Bosch -- all of which have a strong presence in the US (that's like 700,000 jobs). Knowing German clearly creates a career and business advantage for you.

3. Germans are the biggest spenders of tourist dollars in the world with over half a million Germans visiting Florida each year. Germans are also the single largest genealogical group (ancestral lineage) in the US.

Is learning German language really that hard?

We Answered:

Suzie,

Don't be afraid. Knowing a foreign language is a wonderful thing. I know form my experience that learning German language can be hard, BUT the problem is usually isn't the student. The biggest problem are low quality, uninteresting books and courses.

For a start, to get from a beginner to intermediate level, the easiest and cheapest way is online course. There are many bad ones, I'm aware of that, so find one that has some good testimonials and reviews. I found this great online program that helped me tremendously. You can read detailed description here: http://learngermanlanguage.net/best-onli…

It costs only $99.95 which is pennies compared to 3 weeks of classroom lessons I paid $150. BTW, an hour of private class will cost you $30 - $60. You do the math.

Hope this helps. Also, check out the blog that really helped me a lot in my search for quality online programs (and I met some nice people there), link is in the resource box.

Hope this info helps :)
