For High-Beginner to Low-Intermediate Learners
Master 90 common German idioms in the next 30 days, with this innovative, story-based immersion method. Just listen to one chapter per day, complete the exercises, and watch as brand-new idioms fall into place and improve your fluency...it’s a piece of cake!
“I love Olly’s work - and you will too!” (Barbara Oakley, PhD, author of New York Times best seller, A Mind for Numbers)
Most German students try to learn new German vocabulary and expressions through memorization and by repeating stiff textbook-like phrases. This doesn't work and is extremely stressful for you as a learner. Why? Because there is so much to learn, and it's impossible to hold it all in your head while you're speaking. Moreover, sentences taken from textbooks often do not match what you will hear in everyday conversations. It's also not a natural approach...native speakers don't learn to speak with memory tricks and stiff rules, after all!
With 30-Day Mastery: Incredible Idioms!, you'll learn through example and context, just like native speakers do! The magic of learning through story is that your main focus is actually not on memorizing anything... you concentrate on understanding and enjoying the story! As you're listening to the story, you will find that all of the new idioms in the text will begin to lodge themselves subconsciously in your brain. It doesn't happen right away - in fact, it may take a couple of weeks for you to feel the real effects. But by the end of this book, you'll have a native-like command of 90 fluency-boosting idioms that will amaze you and your friends!
In this story, you will hear about Gabi and Heinz, a longstanding couple, who are on their way to the Oktoberfest to reunite with their friends from college, whom they have not seen for more than 20 years. Gabi is really excited for the trip, while Heinz is not happy to be in the midst of so many people with beer and loud music.
The tension reaches a climax when the friends realize that Heinz is missing! They search for him high and low, but he seems to have vanished into thin air! When they find a blood trail leading away from where Heinz was last seen, panic ensues....
Not yet convinced? Here are all the features you will find in this book:
- Short chapters of 300 words each - just listen to one chapter a day for 30 days!
- A text designed specifically for students at CEFR level A2-B1
- A detailed language overview and table of idioms so you can quickly review the meaning of the idioms in the story
- Short daily practice exercises to practice German idioms as you go
- Bilingual word lists to quickly look up new vocabulary
Scroll up, and grab your copy!
“[Olly’s] techniques have made a world of difference. I was able to learn more in 9 months with his techniques than I did in the 6+ years in school.” (Courtney Baird, successful language learner)
Please note: This audiobook is in German.

Story
Most people think the way to write a best seller is to have a lot of talent and even more luck. As you will learn, there is a recipe for success, and luck may be the least important ingredient in creating a best seller. No one has cracked the code better than James Scott Bell. A best-selling author himself, and the author of the number-one best seller for writers, Plot & Structure, Mr. Bell has been teaching the principles of best-selling fiction for over 20 years, principles that apply to any genre or style.

Story
A survey of the quirks and quandaries of the English language, focusing on our strange and wonderful grammar. Why do we say "I am reading a catalog" instead of "I read a catalog"? Why do we say "do" at all? Is the way we speak a reflection of our cultural values?

Grammar! For many of us, the word triggers memories of finger-wagging schoolteachers, and of wrestling with the ambiguous and complicated rules of using formal language. But what is grammar? In fact, it's the integral basis of how we speak and write. As such, a refined awareness of grammar opens a world of possibilities for both your pleasure in the English language and your skill in using it, in both speech and the written word.

I expected it to be the transcribed text.
I expected it to be the transcribed text.
I have some thoughts to make about the book, in fact just based on my experience as a German student and avid reader of Graded Books, so far I must have read around 200 graded books. .
yes 200 graduated books.
but without wanting to scratch the author's resume, I make this observation or criticism.
The author is very well structured, he seems to have an ecosystem of products that he offers on the Internet such as study and language acquisition tools.
the book in question deals with the idiomatic expressions "idiomas" or "Redewendungen". Which is always a delicate subject when it comes to languages. After all, you know every word of the expression, but if you put all the words together they don't make sense or have a very different meaning to what is literally written.
then.
I don't believe in difficult language or that idiomatic expressions are "impossible to learn". In this book, the author presents 90 idiomatic expressions in German, which makes a lot of sense when you want to master a language, learn such expressions.
the problem,
the book has a PDF even within Audible, which is very convenient than having to go to another link and download the file from another website. Furthermore, I only buy books on Audible that have the audio transcription.
however, the PDF only presents in a table isolated from the text the 90 idiomatic expressions that are presented in audio through a story.
What I always recommend reading is listening to the audio, then listening and reading the text.
Despite this detail, I recommend you purchase the book.
The book is very well narrated and, as I already said, it has at least a table with the idiomatic expressions in German that you can identify in the audio.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
