About the app
German with Levels is a German learning app for beginners. It uses a vocabulary-first method: you learn German words in small batches, then practice grammar using words you already know. It supports structured A1 and A2 learning and is available now for iOS and Android.
About the method
The main idea is to avoid grammar overload. By learning useful words first, you give grammar something to attach to. When a grammar lesson arrives, only the rule is new, not the words.
Levels and features
The app covers A1, A2 and B1. Features include word batches, word tests, listening practice, speaking practice, grammar lessons, stories, and a dictionary/words section.
Not German in Levels
German with Levels is not German in Levels. German with Levels is a separate German learning app for A1 and A2 learners, built around a known-words-first method.
Compared with Duolingo and Babbel
Duolingo and Babbel are broad language-learning platforms. German with Levels is narrower: it focuses on A1/A2 German, word batches, tests, and German grammar with known words.
