About Me
italki teacher since Nov 27, 2017Interest topicMusicFilms & TV SeriesHistory
I am a professional language teacher with over 15 years of experience in teaching German as a foreign/second language. My educational background is in the German language, literature, and linguistics. Before becoming a professional German language teacher, I worked as a literary translator and interpreter. I also studied music (classical piano and music theory).
Whether you are just starting out or would like to learn German for work, study, research, travel, or simply socializing with your friends and family, working together, we can identify your language skills and create a program that will help you achieve your language goals.Me as a Teacher
As a life-long language learner myself, I know learning a new language is a challenging journey, requiring a different rhythm and dynamic based on your individual needs and learning styles.
That's why I created different courses to assist you in every step of your German learning journey.
I speak four languages, and I’m currently learning the fifth one. My experience in learning languages has a significant impact on my teaching style – I know what works and what doesn’t.My lessons & teaching style
I offer general language courses (A1 – C2) and specialized lessons with a focus on conversation, vocabulary practice, grammar review, reading, writing, test preparation (Goethe-Zertifikat, TestDaF, telc, etc.), and application training.
I strongly believe that communication is key to learning languages. I, therefore, adopt a communicative and intercultural approach to language learning that integrates the teaching and practice of grammar.
It would be a great honour and pleasure for me to assist you in acquiring any necessary language skills you need to succeed in a German-speaking environment.

Diana can prepare the classes according the demands of the student. Besides of the expected good knowledge of grammar and vocabulary, she enjoys bringing other resources to the classes - such as piece of Literature and movies discussions. The corrections of texts that she does via email are also very helpful.

Another great lesson well prepared by Diana. We went through wo-komposita and da-komposita and discussed a popular song in Germany. I get so excited for our lessons! Danke!

We had a detailed discussion of written work that I had prepared in advance. Diana dealt kindly with my mistakes and was very helpful in pointing out some grammatical issues, in particular some important distinctions between English and German. She has provided me with a list of literary texts from different genres, and some suggestions for films to watch, and this would seem an excellent programme ahead.
