+2 years teaching at GoStudent

I love music. My main passions are playing piano, guitar and singing. I also love reading books, and I've nearly finished writing my first novel. I also love watching plays and musicals. I have two cats, a dog and a tortoise and they sometimes like to join me in webinars! I also like baking, and bake cookies and cakes a lot. I am currently pursuing a Law degree at King's College London. I have A-Level grades of A*-A in Computer Science, Maths, German and EPQ, and have 12 GCSE grades, with an average of grade 8/9 (including all of the required subjects, Triple Science, German, Computer Science, Further Maths and HPQ). I also have grade 8 ABRSM in piano, and grade 5 ABRSM in music theory.

Josh S.

New tutor

Howdy! I'm Josh, a 24-year-old from the West Midlands in England. I speak four languages: English (native), French, German and Spanish. I have studied the latter three to degree level and will be teaching all three with GoStudent. In particular, I specialise in applied grammar and translation - after all, if you know how to use something in practice, what's the use of learning or knowing the theory behind it? Outside of academia, I've been a radio presenter for five years and currently host a country music show and the Friday Breakfast Show on a local station. I am also a Grade 7 drummer, an avid autobiography reader and obsessed with football (I'm a Manchester United supporter, for my sins).

Hi, I am Will. I am 18 years old and am currently studying Modern and Medieval Languages at the University of Cambridge. My chosen two languages are Spanish and German, and I have completed both of these languages at A-Level. Learning languages is something that I have been particularly passionate about for as long as I can remember and I am extremely enthusiastic when it comes to having the opportunity to help others develop their interest in language learning. It is exciting to be able to help to inspire younger students to pursue a passion for languages.

Cristina Marcos

Geraldine is an excellent tutor. She is very flexible with the schedule. She can teach both English and French Math and can easily switch with no issues. She has been very helpful and coordinating the progress to me. Smart lady and really nice. My son like her better than his Math teacher. He said he understands it better with Geraldine. I highly recommend her. But hopefully her schedule will not be super busy as she is really is a great pick. Planning on continuing with her tutoring my son up until he graduate high school.

All you need to know about tutoring in German

German tutoring to improve grades and self-confidence

Many children have difficulty keeping up with their German lessons at school. The curriculum is so intense that teachers often don’t have time to repeat information or answer questions thoroughly. In addition, many elements of lessons are not easy to convey (such as grammar) so parents are unable to help.

Our GoStudent German tutors can support your child with their individual learning goals. Whether they need help with homework, assistance with exam preparation or could benefit from conversing with a native speaker, we have the right tutor for them.

Using a German tutor results in increased self-confidence and reduced stress, which leads to better performance when it comes to exams.

The advantages of studying German

German is Europe's second most spoken language. Austria, Belgium, Germany, the Principality of Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, and Switzerland all have German as their official language.

For many centuries, German was regarded as a lingua franca (a language used as a common language among speakers of diverse original languages) in Europe. As a bridge between Central and Eastern Europe, German still performs this duty to some extent today.

There are exciting career opportunities across many industry sectors for German speakers. Many language graduates work as teachers or interpreters. They are also librarians, journalists or editors, or work in corporate communications or public relations.

Which topics can be covered in online German classes with a qualified tutor?

The learning objectives of German lessons always relate to reading, writing, speaking and listening comprehension.

In the first years of German lessons, the following topics are taught:

  • Spelling rules
  • Punctuation
  • Conjugation
  • Cases
  • Word families
  • Reading
  • Writing

Topics that are dealt with at higher levels are generally:

  • In-depth grammar rules
  • Text work
  • Text discussion
  • Text passage analysis
  • Poetry interpretation
  • Text interpretation
  • Literature
  • Essays
  • Retelling

Our German tutors are trained to teach the language at all levels, so we can find the right tutor for your child’s requirements.

German exam preparation and German revision

Many students work up a sweat when they think about their exams. This may be because they either started learning too late or haven’t started at all. If this is this the case with your child, now is the right time to get started with one of our friendly and professional German tutors.

Whether your child is studying for a GCSE, an A level in England or Wales, a Leaving Cert in Ireland or Northern Ireland or the National 3,4,5 Higher or Advanced Higher in Scotland, we have a German tutor who knows the curriculum thoroughly.

German homework help

Our German tutors can offer help with homework. This helps your child keep up with the material being taught in class, leading to more enjoyable lessons and improved self-confidence.
