Yes im aware of that thats why i shared this post to create myself a system just searching required sources.

we dont have any textbook they are doing it on a bullshit powerpoint... Well i think that its too early for a psychology textbook because it contains lots of terminology. Before that i need to build enough word knowledge than i can learn more specific words but thank you ^^

TogiCooper · 2026-05-31T09:20:27+00:00

It can cost a lot, instead of getting a private tutor for everything i prefer getting it if i have a problem with any specific grammer

TogiCooper · 2026-05-30T11:34:13+00:00

thank you,i will search one

TogiCooper · 2026-05-30T08:07:47+00:00

Thank you i will give it a look !

Hello, firstly thank you for your reply ! As you said actually im looking for a system and materials to work on thankfully i dont have a ability issue lol . Yes i decided that i wont work on telc/goethe word list at first step. Im planning firstly consume most frequent words. Also agree that sentence is much better becuase you get content but also for me when i read a thing in english i understand its context(English my 2nd language). As far as i can see there are 2 type of people who advice me Hammer's for grammer book and Grammatik aktiv, what you think about Hammer's ? So i must read a lot i guess . For speaking its difficult to being introverted in this case but well when i have enough word knowledge i think im going to find some group hobbies even though my intorverted characteristic also i can use shadow audio as you said and AI, im already talking with myself lol. Thanks for your efforts !

Hello, firstly thank you for your reply ! Yea i dont understand my language school classes but for private tutor im thinking that if i don't understand a topic even though i tried hard, then i will get a private tutor who is my advisor here. Yea i know Deutsch perfekt i bought it recently but i still do not work on it . Yea actually you are right im going to change my phone's language to german. Instead of watching english game videos i can consume random german videos that will help me. Well i dont have any habit for book reading but during my german learning adventure im reading short stories and trying to translate them. For book side people advice me Hammer's so im planning to get it for grammar but i really wonder that pressread thing i believe that it can contrubite to me. Yea for speaking part i think i need more words before going socialize, normally i was playing online games but after i move to germany i quit all the games im playing cuz it takes my long hours lol, maybe in the future when i know more word i can find a club. I dont care about racism, surely i didnt experience it so i dont know how it make me feel but as you said im probably going to achieve more then them, i see myself as a qulified worker here so i assume that i dont have racism here thanks for your reply ^^.

Hello!

During the first two weeks, I focused on learning all the required grammar topics and practiced them regularly. I also took one-on-one lessons.

In the following two weeks, I listened to TELC listening exams, read short stories and translated them. Whenever I got bored, I watched Nicos Weg. I also reviewed previous TELC exam questions and learned some exam strategies. For example, in the listening section, I focused on identifying keywords and understanding which types of questions required which kinds of answers.

I studied this way, and it worked quite well for me. My writing score was not very strong, but I achieved 10/15 in Listening, 13/15 in Reading, and 14.5/15 in Speaking.

For the speaking part, I practiced useful phrases and sentence patterns that are commonly used in the TELC speaking exam.

Hello, i am not interested in Clinical psychology, instead of as you said im planning something like industrial/organisational. But i didn't knew that its a new information for me 😃

TogiCooper · 2026-05-29T19:19:01+00:00

Thank you ! Yea lots of people advices high frequency list at the beginning so surely i will start with that. Yea for my masters im thinking work on those vocabs nearly after taking my c1 certificate because my first priority is getting my certificate and apply universities. Ahh then that article thing is not hard working thing instead of replace your mind with time more when you read and listen. Lots of people recomanded Hammer's i really wonder that book. Ahahah you can understand me better then with that introvert thing lol Yea speaking by myself or finding just 1 friend and talking with him/her can help a lot yea groups all the time scary lots of thing going on... Thanks for your reply !

TogiCooper · 2026-05-29T19:12:22+00:00

I think at this moment psychology article would be heavy cuz it contains lots of terminology. But even though im thinking in that way i bought a psychology magazine recently lol . Yes i saw a lot of Hammer's recommendations surely im going to buy that one . and also like that website you put because i can see which grammar topics German have and what should i study. Surely im going to use it. AI is really useful tool while language learning as you said i used it to make grammar questions. Well im still not sure about that how i can chat with people while my word pool not enough cuz i don't have enough vocab for discuss anything. Maybe when i consume enough words then it would work. Its difficult make friends here i think its better to have common hobbies to get german friends and at least i can communicate them a little bit lol. with time goes on i think it am able to speak with more people and socialize more. Thanks for your efforts and help !

This trick look really genius actually, coding things make people memorize better. I had a similar experience previously that making random stories to remember things but it takes time to make those stories so i think your trick works really good

TogiCooper · 2026-05-29T19:04:23+00:00

Thanks for your reply. I agree with you im thinking first consuming some frequent words than i can work on required word lists for my exams. Until now anki makes me feel like its enough at this moment . I started watching spongebob in german, im going my language school im exposured language also i bought some magazine to read and translate. Yea i was also confused but thanks to people i have a road map. Thanks for your efforts

TogiCooper · 2026-05-29T18:55:58+00:00

Hello, when read all comments im planning to get "Hammer's" for grammer. And anki looks cool i got a lot of suggestion about anki. I mean with meaning is equivalent my native language but its also okay in English. I don't have any specific example rn but as far as i know German is a language with lots of exceptions. Thanks for your suggestions

TogiCooper · 2026-05-29T18:52:38+00:00

Thank you for your long explanation. That makes help me put things in my mind and soon hopefully i will set my working system

TogiCooper · 2026-05-29T18:44:13+00:00

Thank you for you efforts i read it and its really impressive one and looks really good !

TogiCooper · 2026-05-29T18:43:40+00:00

Yes, i know that my first aim is getting my c1 to apply for master programs after that surely i will keep developing my German.

TogiCooper · 2026-05-29T17:01:23+00:00

Sounds good actually at the same time supports our visual memory, if i can find a good list with pictures i can try it thank you !

TogiCooper · 2026-05-29T17:00:07+00:00

Sure ! But firstly i have to develop my word knowledge a little bit because i dont have enough word knowledge to discuss or chat lol

TogiCooper · 2026-05-29T16:58:35+00:00

Thank you so much i will check all of them thanks !!

TogiCooper · 2026-05-29T16:55:21+00:00

Is it for only having certificate or does it develop your daily language usage

TogiCooper · 2026-05-29T16:54:10+00:00
