Please find some of the comments of our former magazine readers below:

Jennifer F., Teacher from Illinois:
“Your magazine is fantastic! I teach German in High School and I also prepare students for the AP German test. The current events and articles are very useful and relevant.” (Nov 2017)

Dr. Cecilia Cloughly, retired teacher from California and founder of  GLOW (www.learngerman.us):
“Thanks to the article in GW about “Hausmusik” and the “Claremont Symphony MUSIC MAN Project”,  two German World readers donated music instruments to deserving children. One reader from California donated a brand new violin, another reader from Pennsylania a violin that was no longer played on in his family.” (August 2016)

Cathie C., Wisconsin:
“Also, just a note that I received my first issue of the magazine last week and am enjoying reading it very much and glad to be subscribing to German World. It’s well done in layout design, contents, articles, etc., etc. Nice job done. Thanks.” (March 2016)

Tanja Guess, Film- und Medienstiftung NRW, Germany:
“Vielen Dank für die Zusendung Ihres Magazins. Und den erfreulich großen Artikel über den „Pina“-Erfolg bei den Oscars, den haben wir natürlich inunseren Pressespiegel mit aufgenommen. Schön, dass dieser Film und die Nominierung bei Ihnen so viel Platz erhielten! Und wie schade, dass es nicht geklappt hat…” (July 2015)
