German Tutor: Grammar and Vocabulary Workbook (Learn German with Teach Yourself): Advanced beginner to upper intermediate course (Language Tutors)

I am a native speaker and got this book for my boyfriend who is preparing for his A1 exam. I had to translate about 250 words in the first chapter which are not A1 level, but very advanced. Also some of the words are in Austrian German (e.g. Stiegen), no offense, but at least the German German word should also be provided. Also they use 3 different words for the same thing in just one paragraph (Bürger, Einwohner, Einheimische etc.), which makes it unnecessarily complicated.

The German Tutor workbook is very informative and full of engaging exercises to help you learn German quickly. With the immense amount of learning material, you can expand you vocabulary and better your German grammar skills. I would highly recommend to anyone who wants to practice with exercises to learn German!

If one has a fundamental grasp of basic German grammar, this workbook is an excellent choice for skill building.

This textbook looks very practical, up-to-date and clearly/attractively laid out, and a lot of thought has gone into presenting the grammatical complexities of German in an easy-to-digest manner. There appears to be much practical information and wisdom contained in the book as dispensed by the "tutors".It contains 200+ skill-building exercises as well as an answer key.I have now worked through the first 2 chapters. Overall, I'm quite impressed. In addition to the positives mentioned above I am finding a couple of negatives: sometimes the grammar topics are treated a little too briefly for my liking and I have been left at the end of the chapter wanting more explanation and/or practice. For more detail, the book refers you to chapters of the TY Complete German course. Secondly, so far I haven't found as much inspiration in the chapters for the writing exercises as I would have wanted. Also: some might argue that the book is a little "dry", but I suppose grammar and vocabulary practice are likely to be fairly so.Be warned that this book is not for beginners – you will need at least a pretty decent basic vocabulary and already be able to express yourself somewhat in writing.

Basics:New, arrived on time.Well made product from a well-executed series.The pages are made from quality paper and are holding up well a year after purchase.Content:The exercises within the book definitely aid learning, and tips are insightful.One thing to note is sometimes not enough space is provided to answer all questions. Especially for creative essay types where the learner is expected to create paragraphs based on a taught topic like family or tourism. This keeps the book in a reasonable format. I'd recommend using an exercise book for storing answers to these types of questions.You may also need a note pad for jotting down new vocabulary.I have not finished the book, but my knowledge seems to have deepened after covering 5 units out of (22).I would recommend this book to those looking for a language self-learning book.Excellent!

This is a very good book to advance German, however a lot of the text for tasks they set and other things is heavy in German that is a lot to ask for for somebody who is a upper beginner looking to go to intermediate.Still good though

I bought it for a friend and she is really happy with it.Good explanation & exercises.

EXCELLENT ITEM
