Langenscheidt's ubiquitous yellow dictionaries will be familiar to anyone who has studied German. Even in an age of online translators, experienced teachers know the importance of learning to use a good quality traditional dictionary.

Whatever textbooks you are using, Langenscheidt has a broad array of readers available, grouped in series designed for students from the very beginning level onward. In many cases, these editions are accompanied by audio material, background cultural information, and exercises.

Archived in this section please find teaching ideas, worksheets, seasonal materials, audio clips and free downloads from Langenscheidt's textbook series and ancillary texts, drawn from our popular monthly newsletter.
