DEUTSCH HEUTE successfully develops the skills of introductory German students by maintaining a focus on listening, speaking, reading, and writing.

Manageable for two-semester courses, the 10th Edition covers grammar in a logical sequence. Each chapter contains many function-based activities that focus on specific emotional expressions.

Students are introduced to contemporary life and culture in German-speaking countries through a cast of recurring characters who appear in the "Bausteine für Gespräche" (dialogues) and in some readings and exercises.
