A1 Hybrid — Learn on Your Schedule, with Aparna Every Week
100+ recorded A1 video lessons with Malayalam explanations and native-speaker audio, plus one live session every week with Aparna. Learn at your own pace, and get personal guidance every week.
Is This You?
A1 Hybrid Was Built for You If...
In Kerala, Heading to Germany
You're planning your move and want to start German in a language you're comfortable in — with explanations in Malayalam, not just English.
Working Professional or Shift Worker
Fixed live batches five days a week don't fit your schedule. You need to learn on your own time, with live support when you can make it.
Watching Your Budget
The full live A1 course felt like too big a commitment upfront. You want a real German course at a price that's easier to say yes to.
Already in Germany, Working Part-Time
You moved to Germany and are balancing part-time work with settling in. You need German lessons that flex around your hours, not the other way round.
How It Works
Two Parts, One Complete A1 Course
A1 Hybrid combines the flexibility of recorded lessons with the accountability of a weekly live class.
100+ Recorded A1 Video Lessons
Watch Aparna's complete A1 video course whenever it suits you. Every lesson includes explanations in Malayalam alongside native-speaker German audio, so grammar and pronunciation are both covered — at your own pace.
One Live Session Every Week with Aparna
Join a weekly live session with Aparna herself to ask questions, clear doubts, and practice speaking — the human touch that recorded lessons alone can't give you.
Choose What Fits You

What Plan Beta Students Say
Taught the Way Malayalam Speakers Learn
From learners across our German courses.
The live classes were exactly what I needed. Unlike other courses, here I could actually practice speaking. The teachers were always available.

I tried many apps before Plan Beta. The difference is the human touch — real teachers who understand Malayalam speakers' challenges with German.
