Alexander: Tulsa German tutor
Certified German Tutor in Tulsa, OK
...my students was following their progress and seeing them reach their goals together with me. My approach to tutoring really depends on the student and his or her needs. However, as a general rule of thumb I try to stick to the doctrine of "learning by doing" as much as possible as I believe that it is the best way for any student to learn a foreign language. Outside of work and tutoring, I really...

Certified German Tutor in Tulsa, OK
...they need to ace their German classes in a way that provides each student with shades of meaning, a working knowledge of synonyms/antonyms and the ability to produce spontaneous speech, rather than a focus on one-to-one translations that don't always make sense. I help my students learn to understand, speak and produce texts in context, while using hands-on activities with music, literature and film to explore grammatical concepts and get a strong understanding of German...

Private In-Home and Online German Tutoring

We help you connect with in-home and online tutoring that offers flexible scheduling and your choice of locations.If you or your student has an interest in studying German, contact Varsity Tutors today to begin Tulsa German tutoring. Studying with a Tulsa German tutor can be a wise investment for both students and professionals as private instruction is available for learners at every age group and skill level. So whether you are just starting out with German and need help with basic concepts or you're a more advanced learner who just needs assistance with targeted topics, we can connect you with a knowledgeable instructor who can help you work towards your German language goals.
How can a Tulsa German tutor near me help me work towards fluency?
German can be a difficult language for native English speakers to learn because of how different it is from English. For example, in German, nouns inflect by number, gender, and case. It features dative, genitive, accusative, and nominative cases.
Features like this can combine to make German feel overwhelming for the uninitiated. Private instruction can help with this because you can get the kind of personal attention you may not be able to get in a traditional classroom. This can be beneficial because it enables you to have control over the topics you prioritize. If you are having a tough time understanding verb conjugation, you can focus most of your attention on that while not devoting as much energy to topics you already understand. You can also work at a pace that is best for you. If you are having a difficult time grasping a certain concept, you can spend as much time going over it with your instructor as you need to while you can also skip past topics you're already familiar with.
There is a common misconception that only students who are having a tough time can benefit from private instruction. But this isn't necessarily the case as Tulsa German tutoring can also be invaluable for those who are already doing well. If your student has a particular interest in German history and culture, they can learn about those topics in more depth beyond what they would likely be able to receive in a regular classroom setting.
Learning about German culture could be a good idea if you have plans on traveling or moving to a German-speaking country. Language and culture are often connected so learning about one can often be beneficial in learning the other one. It can also provide insight into how the language works that you may not be able to get without knowing the language.
If you are having a tough time in your German class, one possible reason is that your classroom instructor could be teaching in a way that doesn't mesh with your learning style. One solution for this is studying with Tulsa German tutors because your personal mentor can adapt the way they present content to match up with your strengths as a learner. Not every student learns in the same way so it doesn't make sense to teach the same way to every student. Using different methods in a classroom isn't always a possibility because of the number of students. If you are more of an auditory learner, your academic mentor can converse with you in German while something like flashcards or pictures could be a good alternative for visual learners.
How can I fit time with Tulsa German tutors into my schedule?
Receiving private instruction is both convenient and flexible as you never have to leave your house to meet with your academic mentor. You can interact with them over video chat in the Live Learning Platform. You can also access recordings of previous study sessions as needed.

Recent Tutoring Session Reviews
The student and his class have started working on subjunctive 2, which is speaking about things that would have or might have been. This topic is a little challenging for most students so we spent a good portion of our time going over the rules and examples in his grammar book, then we spent time writing out sentences and actually using the structures. He did really well and is picking it up fast and asking good questions as per usual. I'm happy to be working with him again!

We focused on two books, Le petit prince and L'etranger. I think this was a real win. The student feels that this activity is really helping her because she has to process lots of context to derive meaning. She feels this is much more effective for her than multiple choice grammar review questions focused on a known aspect of grammar. I am quite pleased with this approach.

We went over the past tense (passe compose) using the verbs etre and avoir. The student did very well on her homework and showed a vast improvement in her quickness to conjugate verbs. Her accent continues to improve as well, as we did some preparations for an upcoming oral exam.

Today the student and I worked on part 4 and 5 of the listening exercise. She is doing much better with these listening exercises. We will finish with part 6 next week and I will continue to incorporate listening in every session. After this, we worked for a little bit on our grammar subject of relative pronouns. With weekly practice, she is getting much better at this! We will be expanding on this subject next week.

On Sunday, we began by reviewing our numbers. Using a set of number cards I made for the memory game we played a few weeks ago, the student ordered the numbers from one to ten while identifying each number in French. Then we sang the number song together. We spent most of the lesson reviewing the family vocab we learned last week. We each drew pictures of our family members and identified who was who using the words we've learned. Finally, we sang a song we learned last week that uses the family vocab--she likes singing, and her mom tells me she's been singing in French around the house!

The conversations covered in the previous session were reviewed as was homework assignment number 9. The dialogue was completed before moving on to explanations of the grammar in the dialogue setups.
Pronouns were covered again. The passe compose in all the situations was explained. The tutor also briefly introduced the future tense and the conditional. These two tenses will be covered along with the practice of spoken language.
