What members are saying

A nicely integrated programme — repeating themes across formats really helps me remember.

Videos on YouTube, podcasts on the go, and weekly conversation practice — all on the same theme. The membership adds transcripts and exercises, and the topics are relevant to everyday life.

Lin Premium

Switzerland

Tom is very clear at explaining things and has a friendly, informal approach.

I needed to brush up my German and found ExpertlyGerman while browsing. The topics are varied and interesting, the quizzes are great, and the monthly meetup with Tom and other learners is a real bonus.

Alison Premium

Basel, Switzerland

Of great help in widening my vocabulary and improving my fluency.

Tom covers a variety of themes every week that reflect everyday life. His videos are lively and cheerful — and as a member you get transcripts, exercises, and can interact with him directly each month.

Monthly Live Meetup with Tom

This isn't a lecture — it's a casual get-together where you can practice speaking, ask me questions directly, and connect with other motivated learners. It's also how I get to know you and what you actually need, so I can make the content better for everyone.

Open group format — not limited to five people, everyone is welcome to join and participate

Ask anything — about grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, or life in Germany

Last Thursday of the month · 3:30 PM Berlin time

Frequently Asked Questions

The membership is designed for intermediate learners (B1–C1). If you can follow a German podcast and understand the main ideas — even if you miss some words — you're at the right level. The interactive transcripts and vocabulary lists are there to help you bridge any gaps.

After your first month at 1€, your plan renews at the regular price — €14.99/month for Basic or €29.99/month for Premium (or the annual rate if you chose that). You get full access from day one, and you can cancel anytime before the trial ends if it's not for you.

The free podcast is great for listening practice, but the membership turns every episode into a complete lesson. You get interactive transcripts where you can hover over words for instant translations, vocabulary lists, quizzes, grammar exercises, and ad-free audio. It's the difference between passively listening and actively learning.

Every week. A new episode drops every Monday with the podcast, transcript, vocabulary, and exercises. You also get immediate access to the full archive of 150+ episodes from the moment you join.

Both plans include all episodes, transcripts, vocabulary, quizzes, and ad-free audio. Premium adds the monthly live Zoom meetup where you can practice speaking and ask me questions directly. If you want interactive speaking practice on top of the self-study materials, Premium is for you.

Yes — you can cancel with one click at any time. With a monthly plan, you keep access until the end of that billing month. With an annual plan, you have a 30-day money-back guarantee. After that, you keep access until the end of your year.

Absolutely. The membership works in any browser on your phone, tablet, or computer. Listen to episodes, read transcripts, and do exercises wherever you are — no app needed.

You'll receive an email with your login details right away. From the membership homepage you can access all published episodes, quizzes, and content immediately. Whenever something new is available, I'll let you know.
