My lessons are a valuable investment in yourself and your future. We focus on practical skills: the vocabulary and grammar you need, plus conversations that help you feel at home in the language.
I’ve been teaching German and Dutch since 2012, both in classes and one-on-one.
As a certified career coach, I also offer interview training to help you present yourself convincingly and land the job you want.
I also hold an MBA. My professional background includes many years in senior management positions, including roles at a leading US private bank and a global financial services company.

Wow, I can't believe it, I've been one of Marianne's students for about a year now, and I am stunned on how much progress I have made tackling German Grammar because of her! It was such a daunting task before I started my lessons with Marianne and I often wondered if I would ever be able to get the hang of this beautiful and complex language. I am happy to say that it is no longer a large confusing mess, but something that has a wonderful logic to it and every lesson, more pieces of the overall puzzle become more clear and make sense to me. Marianne is a fantastic teacher and helps with every question and guides you through the most complicated of sections with ease and makes things easy to understand. I am so happy I was able to find her. Definitely give her a shot; she is worth it!

I've had the pleasure of taking Marianne's "Konversationskurs" in German for the last three months now. Whilst I already had a fairly strong grammatical knowledge of the language, she has in such a short span of time completely transformed my confidence and ability to converse fluently in German. Her attention to detail, and collaborative and patient approach, makes one feel totally comfortable in class and motivated to continue learning. Danke dir, Marianne!

I’ve been learning German with Marianne for about two months, and it has already been a lot of fun! 😊 Her teaching style is clear, engaging, and always encouraging. She also has a great sense of humor, which makes even the trickiest grammar rules feel less intimidating.
Marianne is very patient and adapts lessons to suit my pace. It’s never boring, and I actually look forward to every session. Learning with her has been not just effective but genuinely enjoyable! 😄 So if you’re planning to start or deepen your language skills, I would definitely recommend her. Viel Erfolg with your German studies! 🚀

I passed my B2 exam at the Goethe-Institut earlier this year. This was possible thanks to studying with Marianne. Learning German with Marianne is targeted and focuses on the areas that are important to me. My focus is on grammar and speaking. Marianne has a clear understanding of German grammar and can teach it easy and fast! I have now achieved my goal of getting a job in Switzerland and continue improving my speaking by having conversation classes with Marianne.

I really enjoy working with Marianne!
The lessons are stimulating, and she’s very patient in explaining even the most complicated grammar. She provides materials and exercises that help me practice between our sessions.
Highly recommended!

I've been working with Marianne for 5 months, with no prior knowledge of the language and I can confidently say she's an excellent teacher. She is always punctual and well-prepared for every lesson, bringing exercises and pre-reviewing homework. She has a structured approach that makes learning German both intuitive and effective. After a few months of classes once per week I am very proud of my results. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to learn or improve in German!
