Unfortunately, Chuck does not speak clearly. I understand what he is saying, but I have to listen to him very closely. I'm not trying to understand English here! This type of thing would stop me from joining, sorry. This sounds like a great idea. Unfortunately, Chuck does not speak clearly.

I really love the setup of these lessons. I love the informal conversations, it's something I've never seen (heard) before when learning another language. Great work guys! P.S. Complaining about not having the song is a bit petty. Just listen to it on youtube ... not hard :P Wow! I really love the setup of these lessons.

Probably you couldn't include the music due to copyright reasons, but I don't think that every listener will always buy the song that you present during the lesson.

Firstly well done for getting the first intermediate lesson out. I think that it's pitched at around the right level where I understand some of what is said but need to study some words and phrases. The one thing suggestion I have to improve is that when you are discussing the two or three phrases, you repeat each one before the translation - otherwise by the time you get to the third phrase in English, I've already forgotten the German to it. I will try it again tomorrow during the day instead of after the pub and maybe I will have more success then! Bis denn. Hallo!

Otherwise the exposure to the german text is really too short. I found the lesson difficult to follow without the PDF, not because of the vocabulary or grammar, bit because of was lost in a "sea" of English and there was no clear cue as to when one explanation was finished, and the lyrics were to start again. But I guess you shouldn't judge from just one lesson! I like Li’s idea of having the whole text read once at the beginning ( like a dialogue) and then broken up.

Clear pronuncication could help improving the listening skills. Just a thought, can we have the whole lyrics read (only lyrics) and included at the start or the end of the audio file?

I used to do this with German songs when I was in high school--of course, some songs contained a lot of slang, so I had to rely on the exchange students to translate since our German teacher refused :) Thank you for the new intermediate lessons!
