I want to learn study German b2 as I am dyslexic
Welcome! It is fantastic to have you here. Preparing for the German B2 level is an exciting milestone, and we are going to tailor this entire experience to work with your brain, not against it.
Before we build our roadmap, I would love to ask you a quick question to help me understand where we are starting. Could you tell me a little bit about your current level of German?
I am around intermediate level (B1)
That is a great starting point. Having a B1 foundation means you already have a solid grasp of everyday vocabulary and basic sentence structures, which is half the battle won.
Since language learning with dyslexia often requires a different toolkit, I would love to know: what kind of tools, tricks, or strategies have you found helpful for your dyslexia in the past?
Hands-on, tactile methods or speaking out loud.
Using physical objects and speaking out loud are some of the absolute best ways to make complex language concepts stick. Since you have a solid B1 foundation, we can use these strengths to make B2 feel natural rather than overwhelming.
Continue to using tactile methods for B2 grammar
Let's dive right into how we can make complex B2 sentence structures highly tactile and visual. When you are moving from B1 to B2, German grammar starts to feel like a construction site because the word order shifts depending on the type of clause you are building.
The Lego Method for Sentence Building
- Green for the Subject (who or what is doing the action)
- Red for the conjugated Verb (the action itself)
- Blue for the Object (the thing receiving the action)
- Yellow for subordinating conjunctions (like weil, dass, or obwohl)
Comparison of German word order showing a verb in the second position of a coordinating clause and at the very end of a subordinating clause introduced by weil.
By physically shifting the red verb card to the very end of the sentence train whenever a yellow conjunction card is placed at the front, you build muscle memory for German's famous clause-final verb position. You don't have to struggle to hold the word order in your head; your hands are physically enforcing the rule for you.
Shall we try a quick verbal experiment together to see how this feels, or would you like to explore how to set up physical cards for a B2 passive-voice sentence?
