Buffalo German Tutoring FAQ
Reach out to 51Թ if you or a student in your family needs a patient and experienced Buffalo German tutor. Studying German can be a rewarding experience, but there can also be times when you might get stumped by difficult grammar points and peculiarities in the language. Buffalo German tutoring can be an excellent way to get the support you need to overcome difficulties in your German studies.
How can a Buffalo German tutor near me help me work towards fluency?
German grammar can be intimidating, especially if you're a beginner. There are some aspects of the language that are different from English. For example, German uses gendered nouns (masculine, feminine, and neuter) that you must conjugate depending on the case (nominative, accusative, genitive, and dative) and number (singular, plural). There are also definite articles (der, die, das) and indefinite articles (ein, eine) that you need to change to indicate the gender, case, and the number of the noun.
If you're struggling with German grammar, sentence structure, or any other topic about the language, Buffalo German tutors can help you learn these topics thoroughly during your one-on-one sessions. You can study at your own pace and ask as many questions as you need until you get a good grasp of the topic you're trying to learn. Since there are no other students, you don't need to feel self-conscious about your questions. You'll receive 100% of the attention of your instructor and get relevant answers and immediate feedback during your language exercises or drills.
Private instruction through Buffalo German tutoring lets you focus your effort and time on topics and skills that you need to improve on rather than the ones you already know. This personalized approach to learning is not easy to do in a traditional classroom setup where the teacher needs to follow a set curriculum and stick to a schedule. If you already have a good understanding of German cases and how they work, you can dedicate more of your lesson time to speaking practice with your teacher so that you can start using the grammar rules you've learned in actual conversation. You can have a more efficient study experience and could improve your German language skills in a shorter time.
How can I fit time with Buffalo German tutors into my schedule?
One major advantage of private lessons is flexibility. You can set your own study schedule and attend lessons at a place that's convenient for you. We do the work of finding a qualified instructor who can meet you or your student on your proposed schedule. This flexibility makes it possible for you to pursue your German studies even while juggling work, school, and other personal obligations.
The private lessons are available either online or in person. The online lessons take place on our proprietary Live Learning Platform where you'll meet your teacher and have real-time lessons through video chat. The platform has a virtual whiteboard and a shared document editor that you and your teacher can use when working on verb conjugation exercises or writing German sentences. If you can't remember an important point or study tip your teacher discussed, you can watch recordings of your past lessons to help you in your review.
If you or your student prefer face-to-face lessons, we recommend in-person instruction. It's flexible like the online lessons since you can set the time of your lessons and choose the location where you want to meet your teacher. You can attend lessons at home, at your office, at a café, or at libraries like the Reinstein Memorial Library or the Buffalo & Erie County Public Library.
We also offer online German courses if you're interested in taking both private lessons and online courses. There's a wide range of course times to choose from and new sections start on a monthly basis, so there is never a long wait if you want to enroll in a specific section. The course lets you practice German together with other enthusiastic learners in a collaborative online environment.
How can I get started with a Buffalo German tutor near me?
The fastest way to start learning German with an expert private teacher is by contacting the educational consultants at 51Թ. We put our best effort to connect you with a Buffalo German tutor in your area in as little as 24 hours so that you don't need to study on your own. Contact us today! We look forward to helping you with your German language goals!
