Willkommen! 1 (Third edition) German Beginner's course: Coursebook

Perfect to learn German

Great! Used this for university and it give a good basic beginners in German. I had classes with this so I’m not sure how easy this would be to use for self study

I've nothing else to compare it with, but it seemed very good to me. There are listening exercises, reading, grammar examples and usage. The material is interesting, and it's very nicely presented, with a modern look. There's a book of exercises that goes with it, which I also bought, and I worked through the two of them together. I've just finished the whole book (although, of course, there are lots of things I can't remember!). The last 2, of 12, lessons don't contain much new grammar but they do have a lot of vocabulary in them, so there's a tendency (to which I succumbed) not to spend too much time on them. I've now gone on to book 2, which also looks pretty good.

Purchased this at the second attempt as wording in the advert was not very clear re the workbook I originally purchased, which suggested the cd,dvd was included. Thus my purchase of this offer for the cd,dvd plus the book proved to be a bit expensive.

This one cost a bit more and contains 2 CDs and a DVD. (Attached inside back cover). You can get a cheaper one without the discs. The descriptions did not make it clear whether the discs were included or not. I bought it because its the course book for the class I attend. It's modern and colourful and has useful grammar and vocabulary sections at the end of the chapters. I needed to change class and I found the alternative classes all used the same book, so it is clearly a popular choice. I now have the "activities" book as well and it is a worthwhile addition and helps my progress.

*This listing is for the CD & DVD set. Willkommen! is also available as a Course Pack, coursebook, and activity book.*Which is a bit misleading when included in the same description is:"the course includes a coursebook, course pack, activity book and CD and DVD set plus online activities.

I bought this book as it was recommended by my German tutor, so far easy to use and am learning stuff.

For the price I could have bought the Coursebook, with DVDs, and the Activity Book, separately. The description and photo, both of which refer to "Course Pack", indicate that the FULL course is included. Don't be fooled! The Activity Book is not included. I am unhappy that both the seller & Amazon have yet to address this issue, which from the multiple reviews has been an ongoing one for several years.The Coursebook itself is well presented.
