If you can’t say the time or understand dates in German, daily life becomes stressful fast—appointments, schedules, travel, school, work… everything depends on it.
German Date & Time (Frau Hannah) is a short, beginner-friendly course (9 videos) that teaches you the most useful German time and date language step by step. You’ll learn how Germans actually say the time (including the “halb/viertel” style), how to talk about days, months, and years, and how to book or change appointments politely.
Level: Beginner (A1–A2)
Format: 9 focused video lessons
Best for: learners who want quick practical German for real life (like Duolingo + Busuu, but with clearer speaking-ready phrases).

Dates and time are a “must-have” skill in German—because you use them everywhere: arranging meetings, taking the train, booking a hotel, talking about your plans, or filling out forms. Many beginners can say basic greetings, but still freeze when someone asks: “Wie spät ist es?” or “Wann haben Sie Zeit?”
In German Date & Time, Frau Hannah guides you through the most important time-and-date language in a clear, practical way. The course focuses on what you truly need for real life: telling the time naturally (including the common spoken German patterns), understanding and saying dates correctly, and handling appointments confidently.
You’ll learn the building blocks—days, months, ordinal numbers, years—and then put them into useful, everyday sentences. Instead of memorizing isolated vocabulary, you practice complete phrases you can use immediately, such as confirming a time, asking someone to repeat, proposing a new appointment time, or explaining when you’re free.
Because the course is short (9 videos), it’s perfect as a “mini skill booster” for A1–A2 learners. You can complete it quickly, then rewatch anytime when you need a refresher—especially before travel, exams, or moving to a German-speaking environment.
By the end, you’ll be able to confidently speak about your schedule, understand timetables, and manage appointments without confusion—one of the most practical upgrades you can make as a beginner.
