Taught you French, pulled apart by Germany (7)
I believe the answer is:
tutored
'taught' is the definition.
(tutoring is a kind of teaching)
'you french pulled apart by germany' is the wordplay.
'you french' becomes 'tu' (I've seen this in other clues).
'pulled apart' becomes 'tore' (tearing is a kind of pulling apart).
'by' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'germany' becomes 'd' (international vehicle registration code).
'tu'+'tore'+'d'='TUTORED'
(Other definitions for tutored that I've seen before include "Taught small groups" , "Was coach" , "Coached" , "Privately taught" , "Disciplined" .)
