While I deploy similar strategies to those laid out on my methods page, my focus lies in getting the best possible exam result. To that end, a solid foundation in German grammar is essential. I, therefore, cover the main grammar topics, such as the use of German articles and German syntax rules, before delving into aspects of German grammar whose understanding rests on one or both of the aforementioned topics, such as adjective declensions in German, prepositions, and relative clauses. Of course, grammar terms can be confusing, so I have written an A-Z guide of the most important grammar terms, which I explain with examples in both English and German. Grammar is not the only focus, of course. Just as significant is the expansion of my students' vocabulary to the point where they can discuss a wide range of A-level themes, such as social media, climate change or German reunification, with nuance and sophistication. Therefore, I select or write texts on the core themes that encourage my students to critically engage with them while picking up the necessary vocabulary. In the run-up to the exam, I then tailor texts and grammar exercises relevant to the specific exams my students have to sit, run through past papers with them to explain typical questions and requirements and give them advice on how to achieve full marks in all parts of their exams  Having prepared hundreds of students for A-level German, I am confident that my approach works.
