Native language: English (American)
German language history: After a few weak attempts at learning German over the years, I finally decided to get more serious and started taking the Duolingo German course in Spring 2020. This was ultimately somewhat disappointing because Duo restructured their curriculum while I was about half-way through. The result was I found myself repeating a lot material that I had already covered. By that time I felt I was able to continue on my own, so I left Duo behind and am now following my own self-styled study program, a big part of which is this site.
