solution for learning swiss german

Hi Swiss German learners and those who have managed to learn it! I really need your help right now.

I'm an immigrant too, I came to Zurich 3 years ago and I'm still struggling to speak Swiss a lot.

I noticed there aren't any well-spread methods for learning Swiss. Everyone's advice is always 'just go out and speak' (great advice to give to an introvert/anxious pos).

However, I have an idea in mind that could help change this for learners now and in the future. But before I devote all my time to making it a reality, I'm going to need some confirmation that there is a demand.

So, if you are still learning Swiss now or had to learn it in the past, I would really appreciate it if you could share your experiences below. It would be great if you could partake in the poll and answer the questions below as well. The more details the better!

Why are you learning Swiss German?
What is hardest?
What have you tried?
What frustrates you?
Would you pay for a solution?

The poll below is to answer the following question: Would you be willing to pay ~20-. for a PDF containing all the learning resources needed to learn Swiss German? It would include audios of pronunciations in each dialect, flash cards, exercises and translations between english, standard german and the different swiss dialects among other useful bits and bobs.

Any ideas and suggestions are warmly welcome and very encouraged!

I appreciate each and every one of your responses:)
