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.

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

Extremely useful for my language studies.

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

Will purchase more! Love the series!

I payed and I never got this Book !For this Book is impossible to get any Information !Regards

As the cover says, great for intermediate beginners. Nice big layout, easy instructions, sentences one would actually use in real life. Kind of big, but that makes sense if you're going to write in it. I just find the size a bit cumbersome for travel. The books says "free bonus exercises online...mhprofessional dot com...) but neither the workbook nor the McGraw-Hill website tell you how to access them.I ordered this from a third party on Christmas Day and it didn't arrive until Jan 6. Use Prime if you have a deadline.

Great extra practice book for my german. I am at about a A2 - B1 level and this was a great review. It gave examples of structures of the many tenses and also a list of many different verbs that are hard to master - left plenty of space to complete the exercises as well. I recommend this to anyone between the A2-B1 level range.

As a volunteer coordinator between Americans and Germans it's a great product and many of the lessons are helpful. The only down side is some of the translations aren't quite accurate (according to the Germans in my group). They were able to figure it out and set us straight. All in all it is a great product.
