Title: Beginers look elsewhere!
Product review: I used this textbook in my first German class. I am a visual learner and this book doesn't have charts etc. that are needed if you are a visual learner. I knew nothing about German & I didn't really learn anything from this book. I consider buying this book a waste of money. If you have to have it for a class, try to borrow it from someone unlucky enough to have purchased it.I am retaking German 1 and the book we are using is Essential German Grammar (2002) by Durrell, Kohl, and Loftus. (Unfortunately it just went out of print so you will have to search for it.) It has lots of charts where the endings are in red so they are easily distinguished from the black type of the rest of the word. It focuses on learning patterns to recognize subject, main clause, subordinate clauses, etc. As a visual learner, this book is quite helpful!
