### 5/5 — Perfect

*2025-03-20, version 1.1*

I’ve used several paid subscriptions to other German apps and have made modest progress. 
Stress Free’s approach has made more sense to me and brought home concepts that none of the others even addressed!
Thank you for the excellent and effective lessons!!

### 5/5 — Greetings SFG learners!!

*2025-03-19, version 1.1*

I have one hour per German lesson via Skype but really wasn’t improving. I work in English so not forced to use German that much. 

This wonderful course blew my mind I could start to demystify die, der and das so quickly in a way I never thought possible!! 

Just learning using a different angle which engages my „
visual brain“ not tons of vocabulary in book/page etc. 

Highly recommend this App wunderbar as the locals say 😉

### 5/5 — Amazing learning style!

*2025-03-15, version 1.1*

It took awhile for me to find a method of learning German that worked for me. I love how interactive the course is, and appreciate the ability to follow along with text, audio, and visual. It makes learning German a breeze!

### 5/5 — Great Language Teaching Process

*2025-03-12, version 1.1*

I learned more lasting German skills with Stress Free German Volume I than 2 semesters of college level German. The language constructs and targeted subset of the German language give you a solid foundation to build on. Lessons are easy to follow and make you think about the literal meaning. I really enjoy learning German with SFG.

### 5/5 — What a great way to learn German!

*2025-02-15, version 1.1*

This app teaches German through audio files, which makes it perfect to listen to while commuting or exercising, or house cleaning!  Every lesson gives you new words to learn, and teaches you something new about the grammar structure, all in in 20-25 minutes.  Each lesson  builds on and reinforces what you have learned in the previous lessons.  You set your own pace.   I listen to a lesson as many time as I need to in order to feel confident with the new words and sentence construction.  

I have really enjoyed learning from the first 20 lessons(volume 1) for free and am eager to build on what I have learned in the next volume!

### 5/5 — Great way to learn German

*2025-02-07, version 1.1*

I’ve been learning German for about eight weeks, and this is by far the best way I have found to learn German. I have paid for three more volumes from their website and it’s definitely worth it.

### 5/5 — Terrific language training and structure

*2025-02-01, version 1.1*

I’ve been using the stress free German app for a couple of months to learn German. It’s helping me develop sentences and greetings. It really breaks down the different language structures to help learn easily without getting confused. I love the tips of the day as well which are really informative

### 5/5 — Perfect!

*2025-01-11*

This course made complicated topics seem easy to understand and grasp. The pace is perfect and the use of different learning techniques made it seem like common sense. I bought the other courses because it really works! After just 20 lessons I can already understand the grammar of simple sentences. Wonderful course :) highly recommend!

### 5/5 — Effective

*2025-01-10, version 1.1*

This app uses a totally different strategy for language learning than any tradition class I’ve ever taken, and is so much more effective to actually learn a language rather just memorize words. The audios are quick, entertaining, and pack a lot of info. I’m excited to continue learning with SFG.

### 5/5 — It really is stress free!

*2025-01-04, version 1.1*

This course is excellent. It is really easy to feel overwhelmed learning a new language. Stress Free German breaks everything down into manageable and memorable pieces. Mark and his team have done an excellent job of making learning German fun and interesting. Thank you for helping me to believe that learning a new language is actually possible as an adult!

### 5/5 — Excellent App for Beginners

*2024-12-31, version 1.1*

Stress Free German has been a great find for me. It is paced well and presented in a clear and supportive format. It truly is stress free. I have learned quickly in the first twenty lessons and am retaining more than I have when studying on my own or listening to competitors podcasts. Thank you Stress Free German!

### 5/5 — Terrific Structure

*2024-12-28, version 1.1*

I love how this course is set up.  Adding a few new words and one concept each lesson is brilliant.  The pace is appropriate for new learners and at ~23 minutes per, the episodes are easy to consume in their entirety.
I augment an adults class with this podcast and it’s an excellent combination.  Am beginning Module 2 any day now.

### 5/5 — Top class course

*2024-12-26, version 1.1*

I have been using stress free German and i cannot stress enough how fantastic it is - very creative, effective and REALLY Stress Free Learning!  Many thanks to the creators for the fantastic job!

### 5/5 — Excellent language learning method.

*2024-12-12, version 1.1*

I took private German lessons for four years when we lived in Germany. We are moving back now and in addition to Duolingo I’ve been listening to this podcast. It is VERY effective and fills in a lot of the blanks that Duolingo leaves out.  I just finished the entire volume 1 so I’ll be purchasing volume 2 soon. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Super useful

*2024-05-14, version 1.1*

I have used duolingo for some time to learn German but it falls short when it comes to grammar. Stress Free German has greatly helped me understand why words are used and how to use them. It’s been a great supplement for me

### 5/5 — Great!!!!

*2024-01-16, version 1.1*

I've only just started with this podcast and the first 3 chapters have teach me more German with their image association than any other method. I hope the app is as good as the podcasts. Incredible work guys!

### 5/5 — Best German language course by far

*2023-09-05, version 1.1*

I work in the adult learning space, so feel like I have a reasonably highly level of understanding of what good (and bad) learning looks like. Having tried a number of a German courses, I can honestly say that Stress Free German is outstanding…well structured, clear, simple to follow, and engaging. Highly recommended.

### 5/5 — How to finally master the fundamentals

*2026-06-11, version 1.1.2*

This course has sound teaching principles and will give you  a solid foundation in German fundamentals . It is fully interactive.

### 5/5 — Strongly Recommend

*2026-05-04, version 1.1*

It had been a year I was trying to crack down the myth of German Grammar. Its articles, genders, cases and other details that seemed complex and I couldn’t understand why until I came across Stress Free German. 
By listening to the first few episodes of volume 1 which is available for free I got the realisation that the German grammar is not complicated but rather drafted in a way that helps make this language easier to speak and understand. By the end of episode 18 of Volume 1, I mastered both nominative and accusative cases German language. 
For those English speakers who wants to acquire German language, I strongly recommend that they should definitely start with Stress Free German if they want to reach solid A2 level. I hope I and others get the opportunity to have access to higher levels of this amazing series.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2026-04-13, version 1.1*

Highly recommend for any person wanting to learn German. Very easy to follow. Looking forward to the other volumes

### 5/5 — Truly Stress-Free

*2026-04-07, version 1.1*

This is truly the best German teaching I have ever found. You repeat (with correct grammar) before moving on, and it flows naturally instead of being frustrating!!

### 5/5 — Indeed Stress Free

*2026-01-14, version 1.1*

I live in Germany and have tried quite a few learning methods over the years, but none of them provide the brilliant building blocks that this program uses.  After just a few lessons, fundamental grammar begins to click and becomes easier to remember.   Excellent program!

### 5/5 — Dr tarek

*2025-10-28, version 1.1*

Wonderful teacher excellent approach to a beautiful language spoken by many many countries

### 5/5 — The best course so far.

*2025-08-05, version 1.1*

I’ve tried multiple apps in my journey to learn German, and Stress-Free German stands out as by far the best. As a beginner preparing for an upcoming trip to Austria, I needed a method that was both effective and enjoyable—and this app delivers on both fronts.

What makes it exceptional is the variety of learning methods it incorporates. Whether it’s interactive exercises, audio immersion, or contextual vocabulary, each approach reinforces the language in a way that truly sticks. Since I started using it, my retention and understanding of German have improved dramatically. I find myself remembering phrases and grammar rules effortlessly, which has never happened with other apps.

If you’re serious about learning German—especially if you’re just starting out—I highly recommend giving Stress-Free German a try. It’s intuitive, engaging, and genuinely effective. This app has turned what felt like a daunting task into a fun and rewarding experience.

### 5/5 — Excellent approach to language learning

*2025-07-14, version 1.1*

This program is awesome!   After many casual attempts at learning German using other programs, it finally clicked with Stress Free German.   Their approach to teaching noun genders and articles / adjective endings based on cases is unique and effective.

### 5/5 — Fantastic App

*2025-05-16, version 1.1*

Very convenient to learn German investing only 30min per day!

### 5/5 — 100% best German course

*2025-03-23, version 1.1*

I’ve wanted to get back into learning German, but found everything I tried was ridiculously slow placed, boring or not relevant to real life. Until I found stress free German. The visualisation concept to help remember noun genders is a game changer and the course builds cumulatively which reinforces your learning. I found myself excited to do the next lesson and am retaining what I’ve learnt so far which is always good. I would highly recommend this to anyone wanting to learn German. Whether you’re a complete beginner or a lapsed learner like me.
