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

• Wer? asks about a person's identity
• Was? means "what" and asks about things or actions
• Wo? means "where" and asks about location
• Wann? helps you enquire about dates and times
• Warum? is used when you want an explanation

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

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

German lessons in York typically cost £18/h per hour.

The final price depends on a few key elements:

• Your current ability (beginner, intermediate or advanced)
• Whether your tutor is a native speaker or certified examiner
• How often you book and session duration
• The lesson format (online, at your home, or at the tutor's location)

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

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

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

• A1-A2 (Basic): A1 covers survival basics; A2 expands to simple conversations about familiar subjects.
• B1-B2 (Independent): B1 means you can manage most travel situations and express opinions; B2 allows fluent discussion on abstract topics.
• 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.
