FAQ's

🧬 What are the W-Fragewörter in German?

In German, questions often start with a W-word, similar to English interrogative pronouns.

  • Wer? means "who" and asks about people
  • Was? enquires about objects, concepts or activities
  • Wo? means "where" and asks about location
  • Wann? is used for questions about timing or schedules
  • Warum? helps you understand motives or causes

Two bonus W-words are Wie? (how) and Woher? (where from), which round out everyday questioning.

In German questions, the W-word comes first, followed by the verb, then the subject.

💰 What do private German lessons cost in Manchester?

The average price of a German lesson in Manchester is around £19/h.

This rate varies depending on several factors:

  • The student's level (beginner, intermediate or advanced)
  • The teacher's credentials and background
  • Whether you choose weekly or intensive sessions
  • How the lesson is delivered (online, at your home, or at the tutor's location)

Some teachers provide reduced rates when you commit to a course of lessons.

Choosing online tuition often reduces costs without sacrificing quality.

⚡ How do A1 through C2 describe German ability?

The framework splits German competence into three bands (A, B, C) with two sub-levels each.

  • A1-A2 (Basic): At A1, you handle simple greetings and everyday phrases; A2 lets you discuss routine topics like shopping or travel.
  • B1-B2 (Independent): B1 learners handle everyday challenges independently; B2 speakers converse comfortably with native speakers.
  • C1-C2 (Proficient): C1 indicates near-fluency for professional or academic use; C2 represents mastery equivalent to an educated native speaker.

Goethe-Institut exams certify each level; many employers accept these certificates as proof.

Learn to speak German with the help of a native speaker

Your Choice of German Classes in Manchester

When economic exchanges between countries are more and more intertwined and dependent on one another, it is in our interest to be multilingual by speaking the foreign languages that matter. That's what can make the difference in a professional career!


Among the most important living languages in the world - economically and politically speaking - there is, of course, the German language, mastered by nearly 100 million natives but also by about 100 million other non-native German speakers.


And that's without counting the many Germanophiles, in Manchester and elsewhere, who have not yet taken the step of learning the German language, but who find themselves intrigued by the Germanic civilization, perhaps a group among which you belong!


From the 'second city', it is easy to travel or fly to Germany, Austria or Liechtenstein for an intensive language course at any time. Add in other areas like Switzerland, Luxembourg, Belgium, northern Italy, Namibia and Brazil, and you can have the chance to partake in a fruitful linguistic stay in one of these areas in addition to your intensive German courses.


German classes are numerous in Manchester, and they follow several classic models including: evening classes in a language school, summer courses with exclusive private lessons, telephone lessons, group or small group classes, individual intensive lessons, conversation classes with private teachers, online courses, etc.


Of course, language training - and even more so, German training - is more effective when the learner is working on his or her oral comprehension and speaking skills, in addition to his German grammatical skills, through a personalized German lesson.


Progressing quickly from a beginner level to an intermediate level (based for example on the common European framework called "CEFR") can be as easy as "1,2,3" or "Eins, Zwei, Drei" and becoming bilingual is within the reach of everyone!


It must be remembered that learning a foreign language, even if doing so only through videoconferencing or e-learning, helps to consolidate intelligence and facilitates the learning of other languages in the future - romantic French or Italian, Spanish classes, etc.

Take your German courses in the beautiful city of Manchester

Let's leave for a few moments the appeal of learning German itself, to concentrate instead on the wonders of one of the best cities in the UK, Manchester, the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution in Britain.


Manchester officially became a city in 1853. It is the 3rd most visited city in the UK, after London and Edinburgh and is also highly ranked as a beta city in 2014 by the Globalisation and World Cities Research Network, where it is the highest ranked British city behind only London.


Manchester is well known for its beautiful architecture, sports clubs, ship port linking directly to the Irish Sea, culture, universities, and scientific and engineering advancements. With approximately 100,000 students in the city, currently attending their 4 universities, University of Manchester, Manchester Metropolitan University, the University of Salford and the University of Bolton, the region has one of the largest student populations in the UK, even in compared to the whole of Europe.


The city also boats the UK's largest city center shopping center with the Manchester Arndale. It is a great place to be a student and explore your bilingual German language aspirations!


While you're in this beautiful and historic city, why not explore some of the highly rated best things to do in Manchester, such as:

     

  • Check out a concert- Manchester's legendary live music scene is unparalleled

  • Manchester Museum- one of the marvels of the museum lies in its impressive Egyptian artefacts exhibition housing over 16 000 ancient artifacts including 20 human mummies originating from Luxor and Thebes
  • Manchester Ship Canal- 58km long it was created in 1894 at the whopping cost of £15 million (which these days translates to over £1.5 billion in modern money) it was the largest river canal in the world, allowing Manchester to become an important port. These days, the many waterways of Manchester provide a lovely backdrop for your afternoon stroll

Why not ask your German language tutor to meet you at a museum exhibition on German culture and art, Oktoberfest to learn about German beers, a German bakery to eat some traditional delicacies and more. You can also join one of the German societies organized by one of Manchester's 4 universities, offering German language conversation clubs, socials, movie nights and more!
