She approaches German the way she approaches Latin: by teaching students to recognize structural patterns rather than memorize phrase lists.

Seven years of teaching French at the university level gave Dorthea a linguist's instinct for how grammar systems work across languages — and German shares more structural DNA with French than most students realize. She applies that cross-linguistic awareness to German's trickier features, like modal verb placement and subordinate clause word order, making the patterns feel logical rather than arbitrary.

Between German 1 and German 2, Rachel covers everything from noun genders and case endings to more complex structures like subordinate clauses and the Konjunktiv.

Amber majored in German at Northwestern, which means she didn't just study the language — she read novels, wrote research papers, and debated in it.
