If you're a student searching for academic assistance in learning German, Varsity Tutors can help you enroll in an Albany German course dedicated to helping you succeed in all areas of the language. Whether you're a freshman taking an introductory German course at a local high school such as Albany High School or an undergraduate student studying German at a nearby college such as the University at Albany, an Albany German course is designed to help you reach your goals.
How can an Albany German class help me?
The German language has many concepts that might present some initial problems for native English speakers. As with learning any language, you will have to contend with a new list of vocabulary words and phrases. You will also have to learn new rules of grammar, some of which differ significantly from English. One of the new rules you will have to deal with is the use of gender-based nouns. Pronunciation is also something you might find difficult at first. An Albany German class can help you to retain the new rules and help you to familiarize yourself with unfamiliar pronunciations. If a class demonstrates a high level of proficiency with the language, the instructor might conduct some sessions entirely in German.
Your Albany German course will be taught online in a virtual classroom where you will collaborate with other students. For each session, you will log into the Live Learning Platform, where you can communicate directly with your instructor as well as your fellow classmates. This type of direct communication can help you to develop the listening and speaking skills that can benefit you in your academic and personal life. With the assistance of an expert German instructor who is fluent in the language, your Albany German course can build your confidence level to a point that you feel adequately prepared for tests or whatever roadblocks you might face with the language. Speaking on a daily basis to someone who is fluent in the language is an excellent way to hone your own skills and train yourself for situations in which you might have to respond to a German speaker.
If you're struggling to keep up with the pace of your class, you can request to speak to your instructor privately. This can give you extra time to review material that you are having difficulty grasping. For example, you might be struggling with noun inflections. You could need help differentiating between dative, nominative, genitive, and accusative cases. Or, you might be having trouble remembering which nouns are feminine, masculine, or neuter. Perhaps you need to brush up on your understanding of the verb conjugation classes, which can be categorized as strong, weak, or mixed. No matter the specific issue that you're dealing with, your instructor can focus on that topic with the goal of helping you feel comfortable enough to move on to the next lesson. Ultimately, an Albany German class is designed to cater to students with varying needs and goals.

...all levels of the German classes as sometimes a pull out and after school tutor. I am a very passionate person, and one of my major passions is school and I want to spread that passion around and get people as excited for school as they were when they were younger. The most rewarding thing to me is when someone is able to say "Oh! I get it," and understand something they didn't before.... I believe in building a good rapport with my students and find it very important for creating humorous examples. Students will need to put in work outside of the sessions to keep up progress like any other skills.
