You could try "Gothic Online" hosted by the Linguistic Research Center at the University of Texas at Austin. I have not looked very carefully through this site, but my impression is that it does seem to be reliable, showing academic rigour. Nothing, however, beats reputable studies in print by recognized scholars, and I would recommend the following:</span></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 16px;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida

Unfortunately, a comprehensive reference grammar is yet to be written, and a good deal of information concerning the
language is to be found only in scholarly articles.</div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 16px;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;background-color: transparent;"><br></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 16px;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;background-color: transparent;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: normal;">I also found the Gothic font that you used rather quirky and not the easiest to decipher. I have a much nicer one on my computer, which I downloaded a number of years ago from the internet; the characters in this version were modelled directly on those found in the </span><i>Codex Argenteus</i>.

<div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);font-size: 12pt;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;"><div><span>You invited corrections and comments, so here are some:</span></div>

<span>Lesson 1:</span></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 16px;background-color: transparent;font-style: normal;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">

O</i><span style="font-style:normal;">r at least Gothic versions of the names chosen: Roderick, for example, would be </span><i>*Hrothareiks.</i></div>
<div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 16px;background-color: transparent;font-style: italic;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;"><i><br clear="none"></i></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 16px;background-color: transparent;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">
2) Gothic is a pro-drop language; that is, subject pronouns are not normally
expressed, unless the subject is contrastive or emphatic. Thus, <i>magt rodjan?</i> is then to be expected rather than <i>magt thu rodjan?</i></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 16px;background-color: transparent;font-style: italic;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">
<i><br clear="none"></i></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 16px;background-color: transparent;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;"><span>3) I have misgivings about using the neologism *<i>gutisks</i> to render '(the) Gothic (language)'. Given <i>gutthiuda</i> '(the) Gothic people', I would suggest using <i>*gutrazda</i> (cf. Old English <i>engliscgereord</i> '(the) English (language)'). If you do use <i>*gutisk-</i>, then it should likely be feminine (assuming <i>razda</i> 'language' is understood). As it
stands, **<i>Magt thu rodjan gutisks?</i> is ungrammatical: the object ('Gothic') cannot be in the nominative case here, as <i>rodjan</i> requires an accusative object: either <i>gutiska</i> (fem. acc.) or <i>gutiskana</i> (masc. acc.), cf. <i>tho waurda thoei ik rodida izwis</i> (John6,64) 'the words (acc.) that I have spoken to you'.</span></div>

4) <i>Wai</i> means 'woe, alas'</div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 16px;background-color: transparent;font-style: italic;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">
<br clear="none"></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 16px;background-color: transparent;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">Lesson 2:</div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 16px;background-color: transparent;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">
<br clear="none"></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 16px;background-color: transparent;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;"><span style="font-style:normal;">1) 'I want to know' is not **</span><i>ik mag witan</i> but rather <i>wiljau witan.</i></div>
<div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 16px;background-color: transparent;font-style: italic;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;"><br clear="none"></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 16px;background-color: transparent;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">
2) The preposition <i>du</i> normally takes the dative; thus **<i>du gard is</i> should be <i>du garda is</i> or <i>du is garda. </i>I have doubts about the construction <i>sa wigs du garda is</i> and will see if I can find something better.</div>
<div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 16px;background-color: transparent;font-style: italic;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;"><br clear="none"></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 16px;background-color: transparent;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">
3) **<i>thu magt fraihnan imma</i> is ungrammatical: <i>fraihnan</i> takes an accusative object; cf. <i>frah ina sa
kindins</i> 'the governor asked him'. The verb <i>magan</i> normally denotes ability; the use of the verb here to indicate a suggestion is surely an anglicism. I suggest you use simply <i>fraihnan</i> in the subjunctive<i>.</i></div>
<div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 16px;background-color: transparent;font-style: italic;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;"><br clear="none"></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 16px;background-color: transparent;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">
3) <i>Goths</i> must refer to a masculine noun. Based on the construction evident in <i>batizo ist thus ei frakwistnai aina lithiwe theinaize...</i> ('it is better for you that one of your limbs perish'), the neuter form of <i>goths</i> would appear to be necessary here.</div>
<div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 16px;background-color: transparent;font-style: italic;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;"><br clear="none"></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 16px;background-color: transparent;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">
4) 'I thank you' should be <i>awiliudo thus</i> cf. <i>Guth, awiliudo thus unte ni im swaswe thai antharai mans</i> "God, I thank thee that I am not like the others'.</div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 16px;background-color: transparent;font-style: italic;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">
<br clear="none"></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 16px;background-color: transparent;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;"> I have not looked beyond this to see what
errors may lie ahead.</div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 16px;background-color: transparent;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;"><br clear="none"></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 16px;background-color: transparent;font-style: normal;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">
I fear that you have introduced too many grammatical points into these exchanges (the three cases nom., acc., and dat.), verbs from a variety of classes (the pret. pres. no less), etc., which are likely to overwhelm the learner. I understand you wish to have a conversational thrust, but introducing such a variety of grammatical concepts in less than eight lines is not user-friendly.</div>
