In learning a foreign language like the German language, there certainly isn't any point if you think negatively towards it. For an English person the German language, compared to other foreign languages, is easier to comprehend - even when one doesn't know what a single word means. This is because the English and German languages have similarities. A beginner can start from this point to make the learning experience easier to understand and eventually memorize what they need to know.

There may be many reasons why learning another language suddenly interests you. This is a good sign - because an interested student can learn anything quickly. Also, it's an advantage to learn another language these days because there are so many ways to learn - and this reason alone is already an advantage. Think of how difficult it would be for individuals who passionately want to learn another foreign language, but are very limited in resources.

Now is your time, and you can do it from the comfort of your own home. But you don't have to rely on the internet - and just because you have a dial-up connection at home doesn't mean you can't learn German. There are other sources for learning this language.

Language books, audio and video cassettes, DVDs, and even the television with cable connection will do just fine to help you in meeting your goals. Tune to German-speaking channels - even the news channel done in German will help. But since what you want to learn will be basics such as greetings, asking questions, and directions (both formal and informal), it isn't advisable to take words from German newspapers just yet. The reason is that newspapers display technical terms which aren't commonly used among German speakers.

Also, in learning, there is no room for forced information. This is because learning is not effective when information is forcibly squeezed into the mind. Effective learning does not take place when this happens; it is always better to take a rest and get back to the lesson better. Try to spare 20 minutes to an hour a day to learn the German language for optimum learning.
