German 3 Tutoring FAQ
As you have advanced through German courses, the material has gotten progressively more complex. Of course, anyone would expect such difficulties, for each course does in fact build upon those preceding it. However, the difficulties that face you as a German language student can be quite particular and often uniquely difficult among the language subjects taught in high school and college. In contrast to French and Spanish, the German language presents difficulties that far surpass the mastery of new conversational skills and the introduction of more complex grammatical constructions during subsequent language courses. The complexities of conjugation, declension, and the syntax of relative clauses are quite intense in comparison with the romance languages taken by other students. Don't let yourself be overwhelmed by such increasing difficulties in your course when German 3 tutoring can provide you with personalized review to help you succeed.
Contact Varsity Tutors today to find the perfect German language tutor to meet your specific needs and goals! Their educational directors are standing by to help you craft a student profile to attract the tutor that is most suited to you. Your potential tutor can view your course syllabus, proficiency level, past German scores, concerns, learning style, and more. They use this, alongside ongoing interactions with you, to create an individualized German tutoring plan that addresses your weaknesses, builds upon your strengths, and prepares you for your exam.
At this stage of your German learning, many of the topics covered in the preceding years are beginning to compound with increasing rapidity. The complex sentences being read and spoken are beginning to take forms that are quite strange to native English speakers. Depending on your grasp of the concepts covered in German 1 and 2, this accumulated knowledge can become frustrating. It is difficult to self-diagnose the exact topics on which you need to focus your attention in order to successfully move forward in your studies. However, such analysis is easily provided by a personal tutor, who is able to create a unique course of review to address your current German difficulties, as well as to help teach you the new content being presented in your class. German 3 sits at something of a crossroads in your language education.
Your instructor is flexible in their tutoring sessions. You can meet in person at a local shop or your own home. You are free to request face-to-face online tutoring if that makes things easier on you. Further, you can choose what your tutoring sessions focus on and set the pace of each one.
Your personal tutor can help you to prepare for the future, when things will be even more difficult and demanding. In future courses, you will be reading and speaking in a way that will require a firm grasp of German grammar and vocabulary. Advanced German classes, such as AP German, will present you with rigors that are both rewarding and quite difficult. In adulthood, it is always fulfilling to have a firm handle on a foreign language, giving you a particular skill and practical talent that is often rare among Americans. In addition, you can use this skill on your resume to gain access to potential jobs, such as translation.
Enable yourself to master the German language during your inaugural years of lingual study by working with an able language guide. Find the perfect personal tutor to help ensure that you firmly grasp all of the necessary concepts for success in the rigors of today's German 3 studies as well as in the studies of upcoming years.

Recent German 3 Tutoring Session Notes
Today's session was to help the student prepare for his Mandarin final. He was given a master list of vocabulary, a list of radicals he needed to know, and his study guide. We spent half of our session reviewing his vocabulary. I would give him the pronunciation and he would write the character, how to pronounce the character with the correct tone, as well as the English translation. Out of 109 vocabulary words, he only struggled with seven. After a short break, we went over the radicals and how to break down a character into the radicals. We also continued on and worked on a section of reading comprehension in his study guide. He is able to read and answer the questions with no problems. I have full confidence that he is going to pass this exam with flying colors.
The student had a project to do for his Mandarin class at school. I helped him brainstorm what to say and then translate it into Chinese. Finally I helped him to lay out his presentation and work on how to present it.
In this class, I first tested the student's vocabulary, then we went over the vocabulary and grammar again. After that, he finished the reading comprehension in the sample questions. In the next class, we will do internet-based sample questions.
The student had a worksheet to fill out, which he worked on with minimal guidance from me. The hardest part for him was forming the characters, so I offered suggestions on stroke order. We then practiced using his new vocabulary in conversations about ourselves and our families and then he wrote some questions and answers about himself to practice writing sentences.
He was able to work on making sentences with the vocabulary from Chapters 2-3 and he did a wonderful job. He finished the news article on North Korea, where I introduced a few sentence structures and much new vocabulary. We discussed Chapter 10, starting with vocabulary and also some sentence structures. He had little problem with the text or example sentences. He also looked at the extra passage the textbook provided for reading comprehension practice. He also did a wonderful job. For next time, he will work on sentences for Chapters 4-5.
For this lesson, he learned tools in the kitchen such as pot, oven, refrigerator, frying pan etc. and utensils. I had him memorize all the vocab after lesson 1 and I tested him on it during lesson 2. The student is getting so much better pronouncing Pinyins and I love that he is interested in learning Chinese.
