Levi Antrim

Levi Antrim, known online as Herr Antrim, is a German teacher, author, and creator who has taught German in U.S. high schools since 2009. Through Learn German with Herr Antrim, he has helped millions of learners approach German with greater structure, understanding, and confidence.

His books guide learners from foundational A1 and A2 instruction to focused grammar study and sustained reading at the B1 level. Drawing on his experience in the classroom and online, Levi explains difficult concepts in accessible English, connects grammar with practical communication, and gradually moves learners from guided instruction toward greater independence.

Levi earned a bachelor’s degree in German with teacher certification from Eastern Illinois University and studied at Humboldt University in Berlin. Whether he is writing a textbook, developing a German reader, or teaching through video, his goal remains the same: to give learners the knowledge, strategies, and confidence to continue using German on their own.
