German has five essential question words called W-Fragewörter, each starting with the letter W.

• Wer? is used when you want to know who did something
• Was? enquires about objects, concepts or activities
• Wo? means "where" and asks about location
• Wann? helps you enquire about dates and times
• Warum? means "why" and asks for reasons

You'll also encounter Wie? (how) and Woher? (from where) in daily conversations.

The typical structure is: W-word + verb + subject, for example "Wo wohnst du?" (Where do you live?).

Several things influence the exact cost:

• Your current ability (beginner, intermediate or advanced)
• Whether your tutor is a native speaker or certified examiner

A number of tutors offer a free trial lesson so you can check the fit before committing.

The CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference) divides German proficiency into six levels, from A1 to C2.

• A1-A2 (Basic): These levels focus on essential vocabulary and straightforward sentence patterns.
• 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.

Understanding these levels helps you set realistic goals and track your progress.
