Introduction
 

The German Tutor came from the vision of Aragon, a team of 5 to 6-year advanced Spanish and German students.  As a team, we wanted to combine innovative technology and student-friendly interface to provide a learning tool for beginning students of German, and a guide for later studies.  Hence, The German Tutor was created in the image of interactive studies.
As indicated by the title, The German Tutor is a tutoring website.  Although our lessons may suffice to introduce one to the language, it is not recommended that students use The German Tutor as their only source of study.  This is because The German Tutor is a tutor, or guide, to help introduce and reinforce some basic German concepts.  However, this site can never take the place of classroom discussion, teacher guidance, or comprehensive workbooks, especially for those who wish to seriously pursue German. 
We do, however, offer a diagnostic test, lessons, exercises, tests, an express tutorial, suggested reading, helpful links, a help forum, and teacher interviews and study tips (within Suggested Reading).  These links can be found on the navigation menu to your left!
The German Tutor lessons offer introductions to basic German grammar and usage in addition to important words and phrases that are geared towards helping students get on their feet.  There are two paths our guests can take: Lesson-by-lesson tutorials or our express course in German.
The express course, German! On the Go, is focused towards individuals who would like to get a quick overview of basic German.  Our German! On the Go course offers user-friendly charts and tables, along with key phrases for everyday communication.  Printer-friendly pages make this an ideal quick reference.  Whether you are short on time, or would just like a quick review, this would be the choice for you. 

As mentioned afore, the other choice The German Tutor offers is a lesson-by-lesson tutorial.  This introduction to German is divided into units and lessons, with exercises and tests to accompany each lesson to test progress!  Users are free to take lessons, exercises, and tests in any order they wish.  If they have the optional account with us, their progress will be automatically recorded and they can check their progress at any time.
