"Klartext" is a two-part course taking the beginner through to GCSE German. It is particularly suitable for those taking German GCSE over a period of three years or less. Book 1 covers the basic ground and is suitable for the first stage of a GCSE course, or as a complete textbook for those following the GCSE short course in German. Book 2 revisits key language structures, broadens the topic coverage, and focuses on the skills and knowledge required for a good grade in the full German GCSE.
