First of all, thank you so much for taking the time to do the AMA! I pledged 75 pounds to be fluent in German!

I am absolutely thrilled that you're making this app. I've been a fan of yours from the beginning, I loved every second reading your book and I've been rejoicing about it to everyone who is interested in learning languages! Here are my questions:

  1. You mention in your book that you advise getting a good text book to use for all of the main ingredients for picking up the language. Will I still need a textbook in order to use the app or can I use the app exclusively to learn the language? (in my case German)

  2. Following my first question, if I am just using the app, is there a sequencial method in going about learning every aspect of the language? Such as the start of grammar, or does it go straight from the 625 words and we go from there?

So far I have learned the 625 words but I have always struggled progressing from there to make my own German sentences. I bought "everything German" text book but I can't find sentences I can put into my anki deck since I don't know where to begin.

Thank you so much, Gabe. As a fellow opera singer from England you're my inspiration.
