About the Book

Whether you're celebrating "Oktoberfest," skiing the Alps or exploring your German heritage, you'll have more fun if you can speak the language! "GERMAN in 10 minutes a day" teaches you everything you'll need to make your travel experiences extraordinary. Order a round of "Bier," ask for directions, and make new friends, entirely in German! This program is a complete, hands-on language learning experience and your passport to this wonderful culture.

The "10 minutes a day" Program:

  • The "10 minutes a day" proven methodology guarantees success--all you have to do is set aside 10 minutes a day. Why 10 minutes a day? Because 10 minutes is doable, it fits easily into your life and it's not overwhelming.

  • The program is created so that you can work at your own pace. You set the pace and you decide when you're ready to move to the next Step.

  • The book purposely looks like a child's workbook--it's not intimidating or overwhelming. Instead, it's approachable and engaging for everyone at any age.

  • The vocabulary hones in on key words that you'll actually use when traveling. You'll learn Key Question Words so you can ask for what you need; money and numbers so you can shop and pay bills; directions so you can get to your destination smoothly, and so much more that will make your experience abroad enjoyable.

  • Study aids and fun activities such as word games, puzzles and interactive modules are academically designed and strategically interwoven into the program to help you succeed.

  • Contents include:
  • The 132-page illustrated workbook: Use the book to guide you, step-by-step, through learning and speaking German.

  • Full color throughout: Visually engages you and is conducive to learning quickly.

  • Ready-made Flash Cards (both in the book and for your computer): Take the ready-made flash cards with you and review your vocabulary on the go. Use the interactive Flash Card module on your computer to hear the words, practice and test yourself.

  • Cut-out Menu Guide: Practice at your local restaurant and take it on your trip.

  • Pronunciation Guide: With the Guide and simple phonetics above each German word, it's easy for native English speakers to begin speaking German with the correct pronunciation.

  • Over 300 "Free Words" Sounding similar to their English counterparts, these German words take no extra effort to add to your vocabulary.

  • Glossary of over 2,000 new words, definitions, and pronunciation: So you can quickly look up a German word, its pronunciation and definition.

  • About the Author: Kristine K. Kershul blends her experience as a teacher, world traveler and language scholar to create a playful, innovative way to learn and use a new language.

    Teacher: As an expert linguist, Kristine spent ten years teaching German at universities in the United States and in Europe.

    World Traveler: An adventurous spirit, Kristine has explored more than 100 countries, from Bhutan to Zimbabwe, and almost every exotic locale in between. She understands the problems that all travelers encounter, regardless of which country they are visiting. She knows first-hand how languages can open doors to new adventures, new friends and different cultures.

    Language Scholar: Kristine completed her undergraduate and graduate studies while living in Heidelberg, Germany. She then received a second Master's Degree from the University of California in Santa Barbara and subsequently, did her Doctoral studies in Medieval German Languages and Literature. In addition to German, she also speaks a number of other languages ranging from Arabic to Swahili.

    A Colorful Background: Kristine's fascination for languages began as a child growing up in a tri-lingual household in Oregon, where Croatian, Danish and English were spoken.

    Kristine's natural gift for languages opened doors outside the academic world. She worked as a bilingual travel guide in Europe and later, as a translator at the U.S. Embassy in Germany.

    On A Personal Note: Kristine's passion for travel, foreign languages and new cultures continues to take her around the world. One never knows where she'll venture to next - Namibia, Laos or Guyana. Kristine is a licensed pilot, a certified diver and an avid downhill skier. She enjoys competitive horseback riding and playing the piano. She makes her home in both Seattle, Washington and in Cape Town, South Africa.
