What material will a Cincinnati German course cover?

Languages have nuances that can make it very challenging to learn especially if the target language is totally different from the student's mother tongue. Fortunately, German and English both belong to the Germanic language, and several familiar words are used in German. But even if there are similarities, German can still be very challenging to learn.

One aspect of German that is usually quite confusing for students is gender. Nouns in German take on a specific gender - masculine, feminine, or neuter. But it doesn't stop there. These three genders also have specific articles - der, die, and das, respectively. There is really no logic behind which gender nouns take on, so you will just need to memorize the noun and its article together as you go along with your studies. You will also get used to genders as you hear your German instructor use different nouns in class.

You'll also need to learn pronunciation such as pronouncing the vowels ä, ö, ü, and the eszett (ß) symbol. There is also the German w, which is pronounced like the English "v" sound, and the German v, which is pronounced like the English "f" sound.

Other topics in the Cincinnati German class include:

• Case: nominative, accusative, genitive, and dative,
• Verb conjugation classes: weak, strong, or mixed,
• Common phrases,
• Essential vocabulary, and
• Grammar and sentence structure.

How will a Cincinnati German course help me learn?

If you are a busy individual who wants to pursue German language studies, the German course can provide you the practice you need to improve all aspects of your language skills from speaking and listening to writing and reading.

Studying German can be easier if you have an instructor to guide you in your studies. In the class, your instructor can teach you grammar, sentence structure, and help you learn the differences between seemingly similar vocabulary by using them in specific situations. If there is a topic you don't understand, you can ask questions and get relevant answers or explanations immediately, which may not be the case if you are studying on your own. No matter which Cincinnati German class level you take, you will have access to highly experienced and qualified instructors, so you can learn more effectively.

Besides studying with other students in the class, our German courses also allow you to request one-on-one time with your German instructor. You can take advantage of this private support even if you are enrolled in a regular online course. One-on-one lessons are especially effective in helping students work on topics that are challenging for them and encourage them to ask questions without embarrassment.
