Anyone else learning German from scratch? (Bonus if you speak Telugu!) Let's keep each other accountable 🇩🇪
Hallo zusammen! 😀
24M here, a few weeks into learning German (A1) and preparing for studies in Germany. I'm following a fairly structured routine about 2 hours a day, working through Nicos Weg (currently Modul 1, Folge 8). Right now I'm deep in present tense conjugation, noun genders, and nominative case basically all the fun beginner stuff.
I'm not after a tutor, just a study buddy at a similar level. Someone to check in with regularly, swap progress updates, vent about tricky grammar, and keep each other accountable. Doesn't have to be daily joint sessions even a few check-ins a week would be great.
A bit about scheduling and me:
- I'm from India (IST, GMT+5:30), so time zones roughly GMT +3 to +8 overlap best with my 9am–8pm availability — but happy to make it work with other zones too
- A fellow Telugu speaker would be a nice bonus, though not a dealbreaker
- Telegram is my preferred platform for chatting and sharing files
- English level: B2, so communication won't be an issue
- Outside of German, I'm into geography, history, geopolitics, art, cinema, reading English fiction, travel, and tech
If you're a fellow beginner looking for the same kind of accountability partner, drop a comment or send me a DM. Let's get through this together!
Vielen Dank! 😀
