About this listen

🎙️ Let’s Talk German is the podcast for expats in Germany who understand a lot of German — but still feel stuck when it’s time to actually speak.
If you’ve ever frozen mid-sentence, nodded politely even when you had something to say, or felt “less than” just because your German isn’t perfect — you’re not alone. This space is for you. 🚀


Hey, I’m Eden — your host.
I moved from the Philippines to Germany for love (yep, that kind of story 😅), and what started as a challenge to learn German became a full-blown transformation. I went from Level Zero to C2, became a German Integration Teacher and Certified Language Assessor — and now I help other expats find their voice in German.


Because here’s the truth:
You deserve to be heard — in any language.
You deserve to express your ideas, show your strengths, and stop feeling like a second-class version of yourself just because German isn’t your first language.


This podcast is all about:
🚀 Ditching the fear and finally speaking up
🎯 Learning how to really connect in German — not just translate in your head
✨ Understanding how language + culture work together
💬 Moving from passive understanding to confident conversations

I’ll share speaking tips, mindset shifts, cultural insights, and stories from my own journey — the wins and the wobbles — so you can build real fluency with less pressure and more power.


🎙️ Let’s Talk German with Eden is your high-vibe, no-shame space to grow your voice, boost your confidence, and finally feel at home in your German-speaking life. Because If I could do it — so can you.

Let’s go. 🚀✨

    – And What to Look For in a Great German Teacher

    In this episode, I share the story of one unforgettable teacher who completely shifted the way I learned German — and why how we learn matters just as much as what we learn.

    You’ll hear how a Chinese teacher turned unexpected German mentor gave me the mindset shift I didn’t know I needed — from asking “Why is this grammar like that?” to “How can I make this stick?”

    I also share the 3 qualities that made the biggest difference in my language journey — and what you should look for in a teacher if you’re serious about going from just learning to actually speaking German.

    Whether you're a learner or a teacher, this one is full of insight, personal stories, and the kind of real talk most courses skip.

    Mentioned in this episode:

    • Why non-native teachers can be incredibly powerful guides
    • The power of mindset over mechanics
    • How to find a teacher who helps you speak, not just study

    🎙️ Episode Description 6: “The Cost of Learning German”
    Nov 29 2025

    What does it really cost to learn German?

    Spoiler: It’s more than just money.

    In this episode, I take you behind the scenes of my own language journey — from fumbling through German classes as a total beginner to becoming a certified C2 speaker, integration teacher, and language assessor.

    I share the real price I paid — in euros, yes — but also in time, energy, mistakes, and mindset shifts. Back then, one module cost €280… and I had to take six of them to reach B1. That’s nearly €1,500. Today? Prices have nearly doubled.

    But here’s the twist: the biggest investment wasn’t financial. It was the emotional investment — pushing through frustration, homesickness, and the fear of looking or sounding “dumb.” It was about showing up for myself. Again and again.

    You'll also hear about:

    • Why I failed at learning Japanese and French before German finally “clicked”
    • The turning point that changed everything for me
    • How to reframe language costs as self-investment
    • A surprising tax tip that could save you money on German courses if you're learning for work!

    If you’ve ever wondered whether the cost is worth it — this episode is your reminder that fluency is priceless… and absolutely possible.
