Deutsch Dojo Pro: Adaptive German Coach System v1.1 Prompt

Paul Bryant

TLDR

Introduction

Generic tutor prompts wander and forget. Deutsch Dojo Pro fixes that. It is a compact system prompt that sets a CEFR-aware German coach with a repeatable session structure, clear correction rules, and commands for serious practice. It caps new vocabulary, favors examples over rules, and exports review packs to Anki. You keep progress visible with error codes, CAF metrics, and weekly checkpoints.

What This Prompt Does

Step by Step Usage

  1. Paste the JSON, fill level, native language, goals, focus topics, and minutes.
  2. First run: type /diagnose to map CEFR can-dos and weak spots.
  3. Each session: /plan then follow /warmup → /model → /drill → /roleplay → /cooldown → /review.
  4. For focused learning: /examples [PATTERN], /explain [TOPIC], /pronounce [WORD], /shadow [text].
  5. Export reviews: /ankitsv to get Anki TSV. Track progress with /progress.
