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.Varsity Tutors can connect you or a student in your family with an experienced Virginia Beach German tutor. If you're having difficulty understanding the different cases in German or if you need guidance with conjugating verbs, Virginia Beach German tutoring gives you access to a patient teacher who can help you with your studies.
How can a Virginia Beach German tutor near me help me work towards fluency?
One of the things that can be challenging for English speakers when learning German is articles. In English grammar, the article doesn't change its form, but in German, you need to change the article to indicate the gender, number, and case of the noun. The articles used in German can be definite: der, die, das (the); or indefinite: ein, eine (a, an). When studying articles, it's usually helpful if you study the noun and its article together so you can get used to it faster.
If you're finding it difficult to comprehend German grammar or if you want to clarify some concepts you've studied in the past, Virginia Beach German tutors can help provide answers and detailed explanations that could make it easier for you to understand the topics you're trying to learn. You'll have one-on-one lessons, so you can ask as many questions as you want and study at your own pace. Your teacher will also be able to give you their full attention throughout the lessons, and you will solely be focused on your learning needs.
Unlike in regular classes where the teacher has to follow a set curriculum, your Virginia Beach German tutoring allows you to study based on your language goals and the topics you want to focus on. You can skip topics you already have a good grasp of and dedicate more lesson time on the ones that you're struggling to understand. If you already have a good idea of how German cases work, then you might want to proceed to study German prepositions immediately in your private lessons. You don't need to wait in order to study the topics you want to learn. With this personalized approach, you can address your learning gaps more efficiently and effectively compared to strictly following the lessons in a traditional language class.
How can I fit time with Virginia Beach German tutors into my schedule?
Private instruction offers more flexibility when it comes to scheduling when and where you attend your lessons. We work hard to find you a qualified teacher who can teach you or your student no matter which level you're at with your German. You just need to set your schedule and we'll identify an instructor who is available to meet you and conduct the lessons.
There are two types of private lessons: online and in-person instruction. Online lessons make it possible for you to learn German without leaving your home. You just need a reliable internet connection and a laptop, tablet, or mobile device and you can start studying. You'll meet your teacher on our proprietary Live Learning Platform that uses a video chat feature, virtual whiteboard, and a document editor so you can experience the lessons as if you were in a physical classroom. With these features, you can smoothly follow along as your instructor teaches you about German tenses, common phrases, and sentence structure. In case you forget something, you can go back and watch the recordings of your past lessons. This makes it easy for you to review important pointers you discussed with your teacher.
If you prefer to meet your teacher face-to-face, we recommend in-person lessons. You still get some of the flexibility of online lessons since you can set your own study schedule and choose where you want to meet your instructor. You can study at home or at your favorite coffee shop. It's also possible to meet your teacher at a location such as the Oceanfront Area Library or the Meyera E. Oberndorf Central Library.
If you or your student would also like to study with other German language learners, we offer online courses as well. The courses place you in a virtual classroom where you have opportunities to practice your German skills with your classmates and instructor. Lessons take place in the morning, afternoon, and evening, so you can easily fit a course into your busy schedule.

Recent Tutoring Session Reviews
For my first session with the student we with focused on the Reading section, beginning with sentence completions. After going through strategies and techniques and some Do's and Don'ts we did about half an hour of practice on this type of question. Then, I had the student take a Vocabulary quiz so I could assess where he is at, and we discussed how much vocab practice he should do to improve his lexicon. For the last hour we worked on Critical Reading- after introducing the techniques for reading the passages and analyzing them, we read through multiple short passages, discussed, and did follow-up questions. I assigned him 1 practice SAT style essay for next week, so that I could get a gauge on his essay skills.

We also learned about adding and subtracting fractions with like terms and discussed how to add fractions with different denominators. We also reviewed synonym questions in the review exam book. I assigned homework for next week.

We did some homework exercises together to go over intransitive verbs. We also reviewed some verbs with irregular past participles. We did a listening exercise. The student's listening skills are developing very well! We did some fill-in-the blank exercises to practice identifying the main verb and past participle, the subject, and making an agreement in gender and number. I know that grammar can be hard to grasp, but with each session he shows tremendous improvement and now understands these terms (verb, participle, subject, D.O., I.O., preposition, gender, etc.). I explained the verb "piacere" and that it always takes an indirect object. He mastered this concept fairly quickly. It is a delight to see his improvement!
