Boston German Tutoring FAQ
If you have been considering getting private Boston German tutoring for yourself or your student, reach out to Varsity Tutors. Regardless of your current level of proficiency and whether you want to start from the basics or you are an advanced learner, we can help. Private instruction can allow you to improve your German under the tutelage of an expert.
How can a private Boston German tutor near me help me or my student?
A private Boston German tutor can study with you at your own pace. You can take your time to ask questions without having to worry about running out of time. You can always set up more mentoring sessions if you need to. Private instructors can cater to your or your student's needs. They can cover a lot of ground or spend more time on a single topic. If your student is having difficulty keeping up with the pace of their in-school German classes, a private mentor can help them review what they learned and give them clarity. If your student wants to go beyond what they are learning in school, a private mentor can delve deeper into topics they might be interested in, such as German history or culture.
Private Boston German tutors can help you with German grammar. German grammar rules are very different than English and can be confusing to beginners. For example, nouns are inflected based on their case, gender, and number. Nominative and accusative are two examples of cases. Nouns can be masculine, feminine, or neuter, and can be singular or plural. This is important, as the article accompanying a noun can change based on the noun's case, gender, or number, a concept that does not exist in English. Students must also learn the six tenses that exist in German: present, present perfect, simple past, past perfect, future, and future perfect. This can be confusing at first, but with practice and the help of your mentor, you can get better.
Boston German tutors can conduct conversations with you entirely in German, depending on your skills. This can help you improve your fluency, reduce hesitation in your speech, and improve your understanding of spoken German. Practicing the language that you are learning with a fluent speaker is always helpful, but with private mentoring, you can also get instant constructive feedback. Your instructor can correct your pronunciation and grammar mistakes. They can also introduce new words to help you expand your vocabulary. German has compound words, which are long words formed out of several smaller words. This can be confusing at first, but a private educator can help you get the hang of it.
You can sign up for private Boston German tutoring either online or in person. One of the benefits of private instruction is the flexibility it can offer you. Whether you want to study during the daytime, in the evening, or on Saturdays and Sundays, we can help you find a mentor who can work with your schedule.
If you choose to study with a private Boston German tutor over the internet, you can use our Live Learning Platform from wherever you have access to the web. We have a video chat tool that you can use to interact with your mentor in real time as if you were sitting face-to-face. There is also a live document editor and a virtual whiteboard that can be used for learning new words or the correct spelling of German text. Your mentor can use integrated practice problems and other tools to enhance your sessions. There will also be recordings of all your sessions available for you to watch at any time.
You can also opt to meet your instructor in person. You can arrange a meeting at your favorite coffee shop, your house, or a local library, such as the South End Branch of the Boston Public Library.
Online German courses are also available. Course sections take place at different times, offering you flexibility.
