How to Learn a Language online for FREE

​The Lingoda Language Marathon is BACK!

I filmed this video with some of my best tips on how to learn to fluently speak a language from home and - the best part - is you have the opportunity to get 90 online language lessons for free with the Lingoda Language Marathon!


It's the best way to learn German, French, Spanish, English, or Business English online.

​To become fluent in another language, you have to be highly motivated, have excellent resources, and a wonderful teacher and put the work in - meaning you have to be committed to study every day. That’s why I am such a huge fan of the Lingoda Language Marathon! They make it easy for you to do the work and transform yourself into a confident language speaker!

Mein Lieblings–Weihnachtslied

Schauen Sie sich dieses Video in langsam gesprochenem Deutsch an, um zu erfahren, warum dieses Weihnachtslied mir sehr gern gefällt.

Watch this video in slowly spoken German to hear why this Christmas song is one of my favorites.

My Favorite Christmas Song

O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum,
wie treu sind deine Blätter!
Du grünst nicht nur zur Sommerzeit,
Nein auch im Winter, wenn es schneit.
O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum,
wie treu sind deine Blätter!

O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree
How loyal are your leaves/needles!
You’re green not only in the summertime,
No, also in the winter when it snows.
O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree
How loyal are your leaves/needles!

Moving to Germany? Learn German in 3 Months!

​How to Learn German from Home

There has never been a better time to move to Germany - and to learn German!

Lingoda has a revolutionary new program for everyone who is moving to Europe’s largest economy and is ready to live their best life.

I am no stranger to expat life - I have moved many times in my life. Most notably to Germany, to Croatia, to Slovenia, to Egypt, and back to the States as an adult.

The one thing that really helps you to connect with your new home and create a new life is to learn how to communicate to locals and adapt to their culture.

What You Need to Know When You Move to Germany

The Moving to Germany program offers 30 online group classes (in small groups of 3-4 students plus your native speaker teacher) which is valid for 3 months.

The price is a one time payment of EUR 299/$349; RUB 19,999; ZL 1,249 but if you use my code NIKKIMOVE you’ll get a discount of EUR 50/$50/RUB 3750).

See more info here: bit.ly/nikkimove

If you’re still not sure that Lingoda is right for you, take a trial class! You can take a trial one hour German lesson with a teacher for just 99 cents.

There are SO many new things that come up when you move to a new place. You’ll have to adjust to your new town or city, open a bank account, find an apartment, order at a restaurant, and talk to people at shops and markets. It can be super intimidating to actually use and speak the language (especially if you’ve been learning on your own at home). Sometimes people won’t understand what you’re trying to say so you’ll have to use all of the hand gestures you can to get your point across. But with a program like Lingoda’s, you’ll have that speaking and listening practice with German natives so you’ll be able to truly learn how to communicate and understand what people are saying.
​

As always, let me know if you have any questions!

I know what you are going through - I have been there before.

I’m excited for your move to Germany (maybe you’ve already moved and are ready to work on your language skills further?) - in any case - keep me posted!

Remember to use NIKKIMOVE for a discount on Lingoda’s newest course Move to Germany.
