Reach out to Varsity Tutors to sign up for Dayton German lessons. Whether you are a high school student at Stebbins High School, an undergraduate at the University of Dayton, or an adult learner who is interested in learning German, taking German lessons in Dayton can help. German lessons can help you review what you learned in class or help you work towards mastering a new language.
German is not just spoken in Germany. In fact, it is the official language (or one of the official languages) in four countries: Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and Lichtenstein. Certain French provinces, such as Alsace and Lorraine, also have a large German-speaking population. German is also spoken in certain parts of northern Italy. If you plan on traveling to Europe for business or leisure, studying German can help you connect with more people and make new friends. If you are a high school student at Belmont High School and you are thinking about going to Europe to study at university, knowing German can help you get around and make connections with other German-speaking students.
What can I learn from Dayton German lessons?
Studying German often comes with certain difficulties for native English speakers. For example, German makes use of compound words. An example of a compound word would be "kraftfahrzeughaftpflichtversicherung." This means "automobile liability insurance." Being able to understand long compound words can be difficult at first, but taking Dayton German lessons can help you get the hang of it. Another quirk that you might learn about in your German lessons is the way time is stated with respect to the next hour, not the preceding hour as it is in English.
Taking German classes is a great way to get an opportunity to practice your German. Being able to speak German on a regular basis is important for developing fluency in the language. Studying alone will not give you this opportunity. Even if you already study German in class, taking German lessons can give you an additional opportunity to practice German.
Our classes are virtual classes. This means that they take place over the internet. You can interact with your instructor and the other students, even if you are at home. Not only can you benefit from class discussions and the give-and-take that often takes place, but you can also request private time with your class instructor if you feel as if you need it.
Some students prefer to study with a private Dayton German tutor. This can give you the opportunity to discover gaps in your knowledge of German. You may have missed some things when you were studying German alone or in school that your instructor can point out to you. Without regular practice, your fluency in German can take a hit, so during school breaks or vacation, you can get private language mentoring to help keep your German skills sharp.
Studying with a private Dayton mentor can also help you improve your German communication skills. Your tutor can hold conversations with you in German so that you get a chance to practice the language. They can also guide you when you are having difficulty finding the right words or phrases and correct you when you make a mistake. With a private language instructor, you will have more time to ask questions about the correct pronunciation of certain words or German grammar rules. You won't have to worry about holding up other students.
You can study with your private Dayton German tutor over the internet. Using our Live Learning Platform will give you the opportunity to interact with your instructor as though you were sitting across from each other at the same table, even if both of you are at your respective homes. You can also use our virtual whiteboard as a tool. Alternatively, you can request to meet with your instructor in person if that is the kind of private instruction that you prefer. Meetings can be arranged at any location that is convenient for both of you.

Eric: Dayton German lesson instructor
I graduated with a Bachelor's of arts in German from Bowling Green State University in the spring of 2014. During my undergraduate program, I spent a year studying abroad in Salzburg, Austria, where I took college classes in German and effectively interacted in German in my daily life. As a tutor, I am trained in current teaching methods and have experience adapting lesson structures to student strengths, weaknesses, and learning styles. I am trained...... Every student learns differently. If a student is not understanding the martial, it is time for a new approach.
