Getting Around
get around transforms a classroom into a place where German language might be found: in restaurants, at the train station, while finding your way through towns and villages, while finding your way back to the hotel.

Classes began Saturday September 19, 2009;  however, you are still welcome to join us in room 302 on the date shown below.   You are also to welcome to  join us on the internet 24 hours a day by visiting this web site.  Each visit keeps you current on our syllabus and I hope you enjoy each visit here.

Herr Ziegler's review on amazon.com:

"I have tried a number of introductory German texts for my Saturday morning German class and have never received a more positive reception from students. Yes, the illustrations are ludicrous and anachronistic to every extreme, but they somehow appeal to my class, providing diversion and comic relief. The copyright is 1962, and the illustrations are 1862, but the learning experience is intense."
