Simple & Affordable

I offer a very simple pricing structure. One plan for all courses. The price is low enough to be considered already cheap for one level but you'll get access to ten courses. You pay 5x-10x that amount in many language schools around the globe for the same quality of teaching. With SmarterGerman you don't need a live-teacher anymore which saves you a lot of money. And of course you can try everything for free for 7 days.

And should you ever want a bit of motivation and accountability, I offer a Personal Support plan for little money too. You can also book that if you are not working with my courses.

Frequently Asked Questions

I believe everyone deserves access to high quality German courses. If you're facing financial difficulties, I offer two options:

1. A Budget Plan: This will grant you access to my All Courses plan for just €9.90/month. It's available only for learners with limited income.

2. A Scholarship Program: For learners with no income but very high motivation to learn the language, I offer limited spots at €1/month which will grant you access to all courses

Please understand that the budget plan and scholarship plans are limited depending on my actual revenue. I'll share more precise numbers once it's clear how many of these plans I can give away without risking my livelihood. I hope for many.
Yes, but it'll have to be done by me manually. So if you realise you'd like to change to a yearly or five yearly subscription, reach out to me via my homepage and I'll get back to you. There will be no reimbursement of previously paid membership fees. The change will take place at the end of your current billing cycle unless you switch from yearly to 5 yearly. Then I'll make the effort and calculate the difference and you only pay the difference.
I offer a 7-day free trial for all monthly and yearly plans. If you cancel within the trial period, you won't be charged. After the trial, I generally don't offer refunds, but if you just missed the deadline by a day or three I'll make an exception. After that you will have to book that money as teaching money. Users on a 5 years plan will have a 30 days money back guarantee.

And if you encounter any issue with the course, reach out to me. I'm always happy to help.
Students with a limited budget can apply for our Budget Plan which offers 67% off the regular All Courses price. Simply apply here. I'll take your word for it as you trust me with your German I trust you to be an honest human being.
Teachable accepts all major credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express), PayPal.

Unfortunately it does NOT SUPPORT: SEPA direct debit for European customers.

Teachable has the lowest fees (1% plus CC fees) so most of your money gets to where it should go. I'll soon add an alternative payment provider, too.

If your country is blocked due to political reasons, reach out to me. We'll find a way to make this work.

No Rush

Special Offer
If you'd like to learn German without any time pressure, my 5-year plan is the perfect choice. It gives you peace of mind, saves you money – it's a massive 66% discount on the regular subscription – and keeps you focused on learning instead of deadlines. And the best part: if you need more time after the 5 years, you'll get an incredible 80% discount on any follow-up plan at the price then.

On A Tight Budget?

To make SmarterGerman accessible to everyone, I offer a special subscription of €9,90/month for learners on a very tight budget. Make sure to first check out whether my courses will work for you by taking advantage of your 7-day free trial to explore everything before deciding.
For those with no income and reserves at all but with a really strong motivation, I'm offering a scholarship option with a symbolic fee of €1/month. It will require a letter of motivation as well as a monthly progress report. And make sure to first try my courses to ensure it's what you need by taking advantage of your 7-day free trial.
