German has the reputation of being a difficult language mostly because of its grammar. So German students should concentrate on these grammar topics in order to improve their language skills.

Using German adjectives with the correct endings Once students have learned the four cases, they need to understand how to use adjectives in the language.
Learn how to use the so-called dual prepositions in German to begin with and then turn to the accusative, dative, and genitive prepositions in the language.
Learn how to conjugate German verbs in the present tense and practice them a lot because otherwise you won't be understood.
Learn the past tense in German first as it's the most important past tense in spoken German.
Learn how to use pronouns in German because they are used to substitute nouns.
Learn how to identify the gender of most German nouns to avoid repeat mistakes with the genders.
