It’s intended to help you improve your German spelling skills by teaching you rules to help you perfect your private and professional correspondence. Learn to understand, pronounce, and write individual German letters, as well as words and sentences. First, your instructor explains how to use the spelling rules. Then, they (Manche mögen “he or she” mehr, aber “they” ist inklusiver) take you through practical exercises, which they’ll correct with you.
