Would love to learn how to speak German in Germany. Any advice on where,when and how? Needs to be affordable

I learned to speak German in Germany by attending intensive courses - meaning we had courses from breakfast until lunch, then a couple of hours in the afternoon, too. The courses weren't that cheap (I did them at the Goethe Institut), but they were very effective - in just two months I was pretty fluent in German.





If you are looking for something less intensive (meaning just a couple hours a day, or just a couple of days a week) know that it will take you a lot longer to get fluent.





Just as important as the school or insitute you choose, is the environment you put yourself in. Do NOT hang out with other Americans, or other students who want to speak English (or your native toungue, whatever that may be...) Force yourself to speak German all the time - even if it's tough at the beginning, and you'll find yourself learning really quickly.





Also do check out the Volkshochschule, I have taken a couple of referesher courses there over the years, their quality is usually great and their prices lower than regular, commercial schools. The link below to the Volkshochschule (VHS) is a national link; each city has their own...

try a VOLKSHOCHSCHULE


they offer special courses designed for foreigners learning German
Thes best place to go is Goethe Institut, but it is also very expensive. Freiburg is a great city, many students and also lots of people learning german during the summer time.


Volkshochschule is very afforable, you can find them in every city. Which city will depend on what you want to do, but remember that every region has its own dialect, sometimes hard to understand.
I spent a year in the city of Marburg, about 100 km north of Frankfurt. I was an exchange student through the Millersville University Junior Year program. It's a beautiful city. I've also heard many good things about Freiburg. Affordability will depend on the exchange rate, which is not favorable for Americans at the moment.
