For students who want to expand their knowledge of German, Varsity Tutors can enroll you in a Jacksonville German course. Colleges, universities, and high schools often require students to take a foreign language course. German is a popular language that many students elect to learn to fulfill such requirements. Learning a new language can be especially challenging for students that are also balancing a busy schedule of work, other classes, and extracurricular activities. With so many factors and commitments at play, traditional classrooms may not cover all of your learning needs, but Jacksonville German courses can provide extra support to help you reach for your German learning goals.
What concepts are covered in a Jacksonville German class?
German is spoken by over 90 million people around the world, primarily in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. Whether you are fulfilling a language requirement at Mandarin High school or studying to be a German teacher at Florida State College, German is an accessible, useful language to learn. For English speakers, in particular, German can be easy to learn because of the similarities between the two languages. Since German and English both belong to the West Germanic group of the Indo-European language family, they share many common traits. For example, the German alphabet contains almost all of the same characters as the English alphabet.
Jacksonville German classes may review a variety of German concepts, including (but not limited to) verb conjugations, phrasing, vocabulary, grammar, sentence structure, and pronunciation. More specifically, instructors may cover noun inflections. German uses a system of inflections to assign meaning and function to nouns in a sentence. Inflections are at the end of a word and tell a speaker if a noun is the subject or the object in a sentence. Therefore, proper translation of inflections is critical to understanding how German sentences operate. You don't want to say "The television is watching that man" when you really mean "That man is watching the television."
How do I learn in a Jacksonville German course?
All courses are offered completely online at a variety of times. This means that whether you are available at night, on weekday afternoons, or on weekends, Varsity Tutors can enroll you in a Jacksonville German course that works for you. Courses are always taught by expert, enthusiastic instructors. Though courses are online, many features of a traditional classroom are still present. Various technology tools are used to make courses fun, accessible, and engaging for students. In the Live Learning Platform, students engage with one another and the instructor through video chat in a virtual classroom. In other words, you can always see your instructor during a session, the same as you would in an in-person course! Other technology features of online courses include discussion forums where you can engage, collaborate, and test your knowledge with other students and a digital whiteboard.
If you need extra help translating inflections or perfecting your German accent, you also have the option to request a one-on-one meeting with your instructor. Pick a time that fits your and your instructor's schedule to review challenging material more closely. Individual meetings with instructors are a great opportunity for students to check in about questions, concerns, and their goals and progress in the course. Collaborating with other students and checking in with your instructor can increase the likelihood that all students, regardless of their skill level or learning style, can come away from their Jacksonville German class with confidence.
How do I get enrolled in a Jacksonville German course?
Varsity Tutors makes it easy to learn German on your own time and at your own pace. Courses are offered in two-week or four-week increments, and new courses begin at the start of each month. Night, weekday, and weekend classes are offered to accommodate even the most hectic schedules, whether you're a senior at Atlantic Coast High School or a studying international business major at Florida State College at Jacksonville. Online classes provide students with ease of access since they can work from any location with an internet connection. You can study German at your favorite coffee shop, a local bookstore, or from the comfort of your own home.
By offering various scheduling options, Varsity Tutors makes it easy to expand your knowledge of the German language, regardless of your availability. With new courses starting each month, you'll never have to wait long to get started learning German. You can learn on your schedule, and pick up extra help from your instructor if you need it.

...levels of the German classes as sometimes a pull out and after school tutor. I am a very passionate person, and one of my major passions is school and I want to spread that passion around and get people as excited for school as they were when they were younger. The most rewarding thing to me is when someone is able to say "Oh! I get it," and understand something they didn't before.... I believe in building a good rapport with my students and find it very important for creating humorous examples. Students will need to put in work outside of the sessions to keep up progress like any other skills.
