    1. «zero in on» since you can't "improve" a problem but you can work on fixing it
    2. «brush up» to improve and be ready to hold a conversation in German
    3. «ask around» to find out who the new guy is

    For someone who is supposed to be smart, you clearly don't know that the English language doesn't have any set rules. And any rules that it does have get contradicted
