FAQ's

🎧 What are the different components of the Leaving Cert German exam?

Your German grade comes from four distinct sections, each with its own weighting.

  • Speaking accounts for 25%, where you discuss topics and answer questions in German.
  • Listening comprehension makes up 20%, based on recorded dialogues and announcements.
  • Comprehension passages are worth 30%, ranging from adverts to newspaper articles.
  • Your written work carries 25%, combining practical correspondence with creative expression.

Knowing this breakdown lets you allocate revision time strategically across all four skills.

💰 What do German tutors charge in Galway?

German tuition in Galway typically costs about €23/h for an hour-long session.

This rate can vary depending on several factors:

  • The student's level (Junior Cycle, Leaving Cert Ordinary, or Higher Level)
  • The tutor's qualifications and experience (native speaker, qualified teacher, exam corrector)
  • How often you meet (regular lessons versus exam cramming)
  • Whether you meet online or in person (face-to-face at home, in a learning centre, or via video call)

Choosing online grinds often reduces the price since there's no travel involved for either party.

What to expect from a tutor

Students get back exactly what they put into their tutor which means the harder you work and the more you communicated the better the experience will be. If you’re a secondary school student you can expect to go through the necessary grammar for the Leaving Cert/Junior Cert, to go through any vocab you might need for your exercises or reading assignments and how to properly construct german sentences. Of course, this isn’t all a tutor does for a student. Their entire job is to ensure that you are ready for exams, that you know what to expect and how to get to an adequate level. They have a strong advantage over teachers as they only have one student to look after at a time. This means there are a lot fewer distractions, they can adapt their teaching style to the student’s learning style and the whole process of learning German becomes easier. A tutor provides a more comfortable environment where you’ll be safer asking questions and there is no need to feel embarrassed in any way. One final advantage a tutor provides is discipline. When you have a tutor you are forced to put in a certain amount of work weekly on top of your school work. There is more responsibility and your discipline gets built up the more lessons you take. It truly is a situation where the student benefits a lot, especially long term. 

Learn German culture and learn how to speak and write more naturally

Our tutors have a lot of experience and have probably been learning german a lot more than the students looking for tutors. This means a lot of things, firstly they know how to sound more “German” rather than directly translated English, Secondly, they know how to write properly, where adjectives go, how to use pronouns and so much more. Their experience will be handed down to you and they will ensure that any student doesn’t repeat the same mistakes they inevitably made when they were younger. If you’re lucky you may find a native German speaker in Galway who can guide you on how to speak like a German with an authentic accent and maybe some idioms and local phrases. Either way, you’re sure to sound more like a German and you’ll pick up some of the German culture in the lessons.
