Verb Wizard: The German Irregular Verb Trainer
Practice German irregular verb conjugations with spaced repetition. Verb Wizard is built for pocket-sized daily drills: short rounds that bring each verb back exactly when you are about to forget it, which is the only reliable way to make conjugations automatic. 37 of the 85 verbs are free on every platform.
Why spaced repetition for verbs
Conjugations do not stick from reading a table once. They stick from being asked again at the right moment. Verb Wizard schedules each verb so the ones you keep missing come back often and the ones you own get out of your way. I explain why the irregular verbs are easier than they look in this post on the irregular verbs.
When to use it
Start as soon as you meet the Perfekt at A2, because that is when the irregular forms start costing you in every sentence about the past. Pocket-sized daily drills, a few minutes, without eating your study time.
Verbs come with their grammar attached. My courses teach both together.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to learn every irregular verb?
No. A few dozen carry almost all everyday speech. Train those to reflex level first, the rare ones can wait until they show up in your reading.
What is spaced repetition?
Being asked again just before you would have forgotten. It is the best-evidenced way to move something into long-term memory, and it is what the app schedules for you so you do not have to decide what to review.
What does it cost?
37 of the 85 verbs are free on every platform, so you can test the method properly before paying. The full curriculum is a one-time 0,99 EUR including VAT, bought per platform: a browser unlock does not carry over to the iOS or Android app.
Where can I use it?
In any browser, plus native apps on iOS, the Mac App Store and Google Play for offline practice.
