The podcast uses very interesting teaching method with fun and inspiring topics! And, it works!

I'm thrilled to have found this podcast! Marco is a great teacher. He is optimistic and fun, yet his lessons are carefully planned for effective learning.

Really enjoying listening to this short bit every day leading up to my quarterly trip to cologne.

AGL is one of the funnest, most effective language learning techniques that I’ve ever encountered in my years of self-learning in several languages. I prefer the YouTube videos but I’m glad for a way to keep up with Marco on the go. Recently, with Phase 2, the podcast has taken it to another level. The long interview with a “memory artist,” and the book review were top notch, because they do exactly what the “authentic” method is all about: learn about something interesting while “accidentally” also practicing German. I only use immersion courses when learning languages and this FREE podcast is an excellent and natural example!

Marco is the best resource for German learning. Instead of just talking about correct grammar, he actually talks about pretty engaging subject matters which make the German learning all the more enjoyable. I highly recommend this energetic young chap :)

Marco is such a wonderful teacher. I love his enthusiasm and friendly manner. He is easy to understand and his lessons are practical and well presented. Pardon my English, but I could not write this in German, hopefully soon ;-) … Thank you Marco. Now that I have internet access at home I look forward to being able to spend more time with your lessons. ~Margaret, Austin Texas

This podcast is maintained by perhaps the most enthusiastic German teacher on the planet. Marco has totally devoted himself in recent years to teaching the German language. For those with some basics in German — regular listening to this podcast is fun, and provides the type of listening exposure pefect for advancing from whatever level your German starts at, to several levels above this. Marco speaks at a comfortable pace that is neither too fast nor too slow. He is highly knowledgeable, innovative, and constantly exploring and developing new teaching materials with sole goal of facilitating German learning. If you want to take your German to the next level in an efficient, entertaining and highly educational way — then I most strongly recommend the AGL (Authentic German Learning) Podcast as an optimal way to accomplish this goal! — Ken Grauer, MD —

This podcast introduced me to the concept of learning through "getting a feel" for a language by listening to easy german, where you understand 50-80% of a language and you can use that as a hook to understand the rest. I think it's a brilliant concept and the execution is perfect. His youtube channel is also amazing. Thank you!

I am so happy that this podcast is now available! I really enjoy all of Marco's videos on YouTube and now having a podcast as well is fantastic! I can now download all the episodes he makes and take them with me on my MP3 player! I believe strongly in the method Marco promotes since I used it to reach a high level in French and am now doing the same with German. Marco is encouraging, positive, and enthusiastic, and any German learner can benefit greatly from his insights.

I am so excited for this! I just started learning German. I searched Youtube til i could find a program that best suited me. Somehow i came across Authentic German Learning with Märco.This is far more the best method ive seen. He explains the language clearly at slow speed and regular. He uses English subtitles and sometimes none to challenge you. His videos are entertaining,educational in every day life,culture and he even throws in life learning lessons.He is very passionate and dedicated and very sincere to what he does. He answers your questions so you can be sure you are getting the REAL thing.Everyday I cant wait til i check Twitter,Instagram and Youtube to see what the new word of day will be or what book and music he recommends plus the day’s lesson. He makes me excited and happy to learn German. And now with the Podcast added,this program AGL is going to soar. His voice is very soothing to the ear and he also has a great sense of humor.(Odd,huh?) J/k Now with the podcast we can have another method to learn German. I really recommend you follow Authentic German Learning, you will learn alot if you stick with him. Im still shy to write in German but i know he will give me the confidence to speak and write shortly.Congrats Märco on your accomplishments and Good Luck, I wish you well!🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪 -olga
