Requirements
As already mentioned before, this is a course for intermediate-level and advanced students, which means you should be familiar with all the basic stuff that is covered in most beginner courses. In particular, I assume you are familiar (at least to some extent) with the following topics: 1) The main conjugation patterns in the indicative mood, 2) Verb forms (the basic form, the past form and the past participle), 3) Regular and irregular verbs, 4) German tenses (present, past and future), 5) Imperatives, 6) Modal verbs, 7) The verb 'werden', 8) Syntax (declarative sentences, questions, negations, word order, direct and indirect objects, conjunctions, compound and complex sentences)
You do not need any knowledge of the subjunctive mood or reported speech. We're going to cover these topic from scratch.
One thing you do need before you start the course - prepare to learn systematically, preferably schedule your time so that you make sure you can spend enough time studying.

Master the Subjunctive Mood - It's All Well Within Your Reach.

The subjunctive mood is often considered difficult or vague. There are two reasons. First, it is usually taught towards the end of a course and there's not enough time devoted to it. Second, the rules that govern the subjunctive mood are not always strict and this makes us uncertain as to how to use it correctly. I think this is a very important topic and deserves a course all of its own. And that's why this course was created. And, what's important, it's not as difficult as it looks. Just give it a chance.

Contents and Overview

This course is pretty comprehensive. It discusses all the types of conditional clauses and all the intricacies of reported speech. It demonstrates how the subjunctive mood is used in multiple areas of the language and when it is preferred over the indicative mood.

This course is divided into 12 sections, each of them covering a broader topic subdivided into lectures. There are 46 lectures altogether. The pace is up to you, you can go through the easier parts faster and then take more time to study the more sophisticated ones.

To help you memorize and practice all the new stuff, there are loads of exercises. Most lectures are accompanied by additional resources. These are downloadable files with exercises (with key). Each lecture is accompanied by the main text file containing the material covered in the video. This written material is much more detailed and extended than what you can find in the video.

After you finish each section, there's a quiz for you that covers the material discussed in that section.

After you finish this course you will be able to use conditional clauses and reported speech much more comfortably. You will also use the subjunctive mood in other situations, just like Germans do.
