...a subject before trying to focus on specifics, especially in math and science. I try to have a very flexible teaching style, as I know not everybody learns in the same way, and I will always come prepared to teach a subject in multiple ways depending on the student's way of learning. I am outgoing, encouraging and patient, and I will always push my students to achieve to the best of their abilities.... My teaching philosophy...

...about those languages. The first semester of my senior year in high school was spent living with a host family in Clermont-Ferrand, France, and I also spent a semester studying at La Sorbonne in college. I thus have a strong linguistic and cultural connection with France and Germany due to my time living and studying there. Regarding my teaching philosophy, I have always been an experiential learner, so I understand that not everyone learns traditionally,...

Flynn: Charlotte German tutor
Certified German Tutor in Charlotte, NC
As an ME student at MIT, I've learned a lot about math and science, and I'd love to share that knowledge with students here. I've taught over thirty students in standardized test preparation, English, German, and various kinds of math and science.

...about more than the subject at hand; it's about finding the ways in which you learn best and allowing yourself to have what you need, even if it isn't seen as average. Too often, our schools value data over students and forget that education is about discovery and personal growth. As a teacher and tutor, I strive to understand my students individually as whole, complex people. In doing so, I am able to better reach...

Private In-Home and Online German Tutoring
Receive personally tailored German lessons from exceptional tutors in a one-on-one setting. We help you connect with in-home and online tutoring that offers flexible scheduling and your choice of locations.If you are hoping to find a Charlotte German tutor, Varsity Tutors can connect you with a high-quality private instructor. Maybe your high school student needs a little assistance. Maybe you just enrolled in a college course at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte and hoping to get a little help with your studies. You might be actively looking for work and hoping to boost your resume. Whatever the case might be, working with a Charlotte German tutor can be a smart place to start.
What is the upside of finding a Charlotte German tutor near me?
Learning German is no small task, but Charlotte German tutoring can help you tackle it bit by bit. Similar to Romance languages, you'll need to work at understanding nouns by gender, but there are three gender categories: masculine, feminine, and neuter. Nouns are also understood by case inflection, including dative, nominative, genitive, and accusative. There are six different tenses you'll need to learn for verb conjugation which is dependent on both plurality and gender. Of course, there are adjectives and adverbs to memorize, as well. Charlotte German tutors can help you along every step of the way.
Part of the reason Charlotte German tutors are up to the task is that they've been thoroughly vetted and interviewed to ensure they have not only a strong understanding of the language and its rules but the skills required to effectively teach the material. They can develop a lesson plan that starts with establishing a strong understanding of the basics before introducing some common phrases and essential vocabulary and then moving on to more complex subject matter. They work with students on a one-to-one basis, making it easier to address points of confusion and issue clarifications as they arise. You can connect with them in person or using the live chat, document sharing, and virtual whiteboard functions of our Live Learning Platform available with online instruction. This type of individual attention isn't always readily available in a conventional classroom, and is certainly not something you get when you attempt to teach yourself a language.
Charlotte German tutoring can be customized to your individual learning pace. Your average classroom is not set up to accommodate the learning pace of each individual student. Your teacher has a curriculum they've been assigned to cover within a set amount of school days. They can't really slow down to make sure each student in the class understands everything before moving on to the next unit if they're going to meet the requirements thrust upon them. The only thing your Charlotte German tutor is concerned with is whether or not the material makes sense to you, regardless of how long it takes. If that means you're ahead of schedule, great. If that means the lesson plan gets shifted around to make sure you completely comprehend the material, that's fine too. These sessions entirely revolve around you.
Charlotte German tutoring can be tailored to your personality and learning preferences. Research has shown that while every student can technically learn in any setting and by any method, they tend to pay better attention and retain more information when their preferences are taken into account. Because these sessions are one-on-one, your Charlotte German tutor can take the time to get to know you and use the information they learn to craft strategies and leverage tools to better help you learn.
For instance, some people are more active learners. They like to be presented with information and then directly apply it to problems, retaining the information through repetition. Charlotte German tutors might appeal to this type of student by teaching them about simple past conjugation and asking them to apply the method to a series of German verbs. Some students are, by their very nature, competitive. Their instructor might tap into this by asking them to beat their personal bests in score and time on vocabulary quizzes. This sort of customized instruction can help students excel.

Recent Tutoring Session Reviews
We covered Chapter 3 and 4 of the student's German textbook with some additional examples for sentences in the nominative and ja/nein answers to questions. We also covered how to conjugate regular verbs and used them in sentences. The student was quick to pick up the pick up these first grammar rules and his homework from last week had no mistakes in it. For our next lesson, he will review what we covered in this session, he will learn the vocabularies and read up on how to build a plural in German (Chapter 5 as well as the section on the grammar pamphlet).

We had a productive session and talked more about basic vocabulary. The kids understandably like games a lot, so we went over at the end trying to finish up a round of hangman.

The student and I continued working with food vocabulary, and took the opportunity to review German numbers when going over how to ask about prices. This also allowed for the review of modal verbs. She is doing very well, and shows a good understanding of grammar.

The student and I worked on her homework. One of the major topics of this unit has been past tense construction. She is doing really well with this material. We finished up this session going over a couple of algebra problems she had been struggling with on inverse functions.

The student and I talked about the soccer game he attended with his father and friends and learned some ways to express that, and I asked him some follow-up questions about the match (# of spectators, etc.). Then, we discussed his homework from the previous week where he had to identify the list of commonly used items when traveling. We reviewed the vocabulary and pronunciation together. I also included an exercise that reviewed body part names in German with singular and plural nouns. Then, I asked him follow-up questions to identify the number of each body part a person usually has. For homework, I asked him to complete a mini set of exercises that included action verbs that involve the human body. He needed to identify in sentence format the corresponding body parts that are needed for those action verbs.

The student has a chapter test coming up next week, so we spent most of our time reviewing the test prep packet he received from the teacher. This chapter test will include audio prompts, reading comprehension, and writing. I definitely think his reading comprehension is improving, and with help, we're able to complete writing assignments. At his suggestion, we're going to begin doing some audio exercises where I'll read him a conversation in the book, and he'll then tell me about it after he's listened to the story.
