When you're learning German at an A2 level, you're starting to talk about more complex actions. The verb "coachen" is a great example of a verb that's very similar to its English counterpart. You'll use it when you want to say that someone is coaching or training a team or an individual. It's often used in sports contexts, but can also refer to coaching someone in a professional setting.
