German Verb Drills, Fourth Edition (Drills Series)

Just got this book through the post a few days ago and I can't put it down. It really is the perfect book for beginners. It gives you the important verbs you need to know and a battery of drill exercises to hammer them in. Also very important: it gives you the answer key at the back to allow you to check your answers. A good companion to this book (for beginners) is a school grammar book: German Grammar 11-14 by Oliver Gray and Trevor Stevens. The step above this is: The Key to German Grammar for Key Stages 3 & 4 by Harriette Lanzer.

I am a sixty year old starter in German language, using one to one tuition from a native speaker. I needed a book with exercises to reinforce what had been taught in the latest session with my tutor. This book, provided it is used to complement what is being taught, is very helpful. I did try to overtake my tutor, but this caused an amount of confusion. No publication is perfect, but I consider this a good purchase. The layout is clear, the exercises are achievable. I would happily purchase other books in this series.

I got a German GCSE 20 years ago and have started German conversation classes at work. I needed something to really drill the verbs back into me and this is great for that. The instructions are clear, the breakdown of different verbs and rules are clear, there are lots of exercises. Does exactly what it says it will.

Excellent work book - the only downside is the "free online material" seems to no longer be available. There were some other related free materials though, so not a complete loss.

Good book for practising different verbs in all tenses! I use it for my students and they love it.

Extremely useful for my language studies.

I use this book all the time for all ages to reinforce their verb learning in German

It is a very good book but I didn't spend enough time on the exercises -my fault not the book's
