If you are looking for Austin German lessons, reach out to Varsity Tutors for more information. Students at Bowie High School, Lake Travis High School, or another high school in the Austin area can benefit from German lessons, especially if you are already studying German in high school in order to fulfill a general education requirement. Taking German lessons in Austin can help you keep up with your class studies. If you are not enrolled in German already, taking German lessons can help you discover an entirely new language and give you a sense of accomplishment.
How can I benefit from taking Austin German lessons?
German is not the most difficult language for English speakers to learn. In fact, English and German have many words that share the same roots. This can aid you with remembering German words. When taking Austin German lessons, either when taking a class or when getting private instruction, you can learn essential German vocabulary.
You can take a virtual German class in Austin over the internet. In our virtual classroom, you will be able to see, hear, and talk with the instructor. You will also be able to interact with the other students, just as you would in a real classroom. Your class instructor can encourage class discussions in German. This can help everyone in the class practice their German. It can also help you learn new words that other students know and use. If you feel as if you could benefit from some private time with your class instructor, you can request one-on-one time outside the scheduled class times as well. We want to give students as many avenues as possible for improving their German.
Another option is signing up for private mentoring sessions with an Austin German tutor, either online or in person. You can study with your German mentor over the internet, one-on-one, through our Live Learning Platform's video chat and virtual whiteboard. Some students prefer to study with their private mentor in person. Studying with a private mentor is a good option if your schedule is extremely limited, as a tutor can work around your responsibilities when scheduling study sessions. Private tutoring can provide you with more convenience and flexibility than what you might have when taking a class. Your private mentor can come to your home, and you might be able to schedule study sessions at specific times that work best for you.
A private Austin German tutor can try different study approaches with you until they find the one that works the best for you. A tutor can work at a pace that is specific to your needs. For example, they can skip concepts that you already know. They can focus more of your studying time on things that you are struggling with. For example, your tutor can focus on improving your fluency, reading skills, vocabulary, or grammar. Sometimes you may want to explore a particular topic that hasn't been covered in your high school or college classes, and working with a private mentor gives you the chance to do so. Your private instructor can also help you establish strong study habits.
A private German tutor can help you establish study habits that will help you when you are reviewing the German that you learned in your classes at the University of Texas - Austin or another university. They can also hold discussions with you in German to help you practice the language and improve your fluency. When you study with a private mentor, you can ask as many questions as you would like, as you will not have the time restrictions that you might have when taking a class. You can schedule as many or as few study sessions as you need.
How can I get started with Austin German lessons?
If you are interested in taking German lessons in Austin, get in touch with Varsity Tutors. We can help you find a class that works for you. New class sections start each month, so you will not have to wait long to start improving your German. It does not matter whether you are starting from scratch or you have already studied German and simply want to get a chance to practice speaking the language. There are many classes available that are geared towards students at different levels. Alternatively, we can connect you with an Austin German tutor who can study with you at your own pace, either online or in person. Give us a call today and we will be glad to help you out.

I moved to the U.S. from Germany ten years ago. I am currently finishing my degree in Critical Language and International Studies in German along with a Translation Certificate. While going to school, I started teaching children and adults of all ages in German conversation and grammar. I enjoy teaching, and I'm always ready to take on a new challenge.

I have a passion for learning and for helping others to learn! Started teaching undergrad courses in 1991...began tutoring in 1999 and received a tutoring award from the University of Pennsylvania. I like to make hard subjects clear and easy to handle!... Usually it's part "get to know you." But then I ask them what is bothering them the most, and we start there. If we have to back up to review things, no problem; I am there to help. I try to remind students I am not their teacher or parent, and I am not judging them at all.

Thoughtful (thought full!) humans bring inquisition to everything. That means they think about math but also sports and love and history and progress. I hope to help not only with specific learning goals but also to guide in the formation of tools that will help students...
