German rewards learners who practice a little every day and who understand why a sentence is built the way it is. This German tutor chats with you at your level, corrects mistakes gently, and explains the grammar behind each correction in plain English.
Tell the tutor your level, from complete beginner to advanced, or use the European framework levels A1 to C2 if you know yours. Then say what you want German for: a trip, a job, an exam or a move abroad. The tutor picks vocabulary and topics to match, asks one question at a time, and keeps its German at a level you can follow. Beginners get explanations in English; higher levels can ask for German only.
Pick a situation, such as ordering in a cafe, introducing yourself or a job interview, and write your replies in German. After each message the tutor shows a corrected version of your sentence, names the rule in one line, and carries on with the conversation. It limits itself to the two or three most useful corrections so you keep talking instead of stopping at every slip.
German has three grammatical genders and four cases: nominative, accusative, dative and genitive. The article changes with the job the noun does in the sentence. 'Der Hund' is the subject form, but in 'Ich sehe den Hund' the dog is the direct object, so 'der' becomes 'den'. Some endings help you predict gender: nouns ending in -ung, -heit and -keit are feminine, and nouns ending in -chen are neuter. Learn every new noun together with its article.
In a main clause the conjugated verb sits in second position: 'Heute lerne ich Deutsch.' In a subordinate clause introduced by words like 'weil' or 'dass', the verb moves to the end: 'Ich lerne Deutsch, weil ich in Berlin arbeite.' Separable verbs split in the present tense, so 'aufstehen' becomes 'Ich stehe um sieben Uhr auf.' The tutor gives you a worked example of each pattern and then a similar sentence to build yourself.
Ask for a weekly study plan, a vocabulary list with articles and plurals, or a short quiz on what you covered yesterday. Short daily sessions are easier to keep up than one long session a week. If you are studying another language as well, the Spanish Tutor and English Tutor work the same way.
Is the German tutor free?
Yes, it is free to use. Open the chat, say your level and start practicing.
Can a complete beginner use it?
Yes. Say you are a beginner and the tutor starts with greetings, numbers, the present tense and basic sentence order, with every explanation in English.
Can it help with German pronunciation?
It is a text chat, so it cannot hear you. It can describe how sounds are made, such as the two 'ch' sounds in 'ich' and 'Buch', and tell you which syllable is stressed. Pair it with listening to native audio.
Will it do my German homework?
It explains the rule, works through a similar example and checks your own answer. For graded work it guides you to the answer instead of writing something to hand in.
Can it prepare me for a German exam?
It can drill grammar, vocabulary and short writing tasks at your target level and give feedback. It cannot predict a result, and you should check the official format with the exam provider.
