And you could search a teacher here in Italki of course ;-) I use a basic course which intrduces people in German language who do not speak German at all. Since it works with lots of pictures it is even usable for people who don`t speak any German or English.

You know nothing at all? Hmm... well, some of the words are a lot like English, so if you're reading something German then look for the similar sounding words. some simple grammar tips though, are; . All German nouns have a capital letter. . In a simple present tense sentence, the verb always wants to be the second word (ich HABE ein Hund = I have a dog) but if there are two verbs, then the second goes at the very end (ich BIN im Stadtzentrum GEHEN = I go to the town centre) . The structure for future tense sentences is, if I remember right, Time Verb Person Rest (Diese Nachmittag gehe ich im Stadtzentrum = This afternoon I (will) go to the town centre) . Verbs of movement (to go, to go by, to visit but NOT to play) use 'to be' instead of 'to have' (Ich BIN nach Spanien GEFAHREN = I went to Spain (btw, fahren is 'go by' and gehen is just 'to go')). I hope that makes some sort of sense, because I feel like it doesn't. Also, if you actually read this, don't go exactly by what I say. There are alot of people on here who speak German a lot better than me, which isn't saying much as I'm nowhere near fluent myself.
