About Me
italki teacher since Jun 8, 2021InterestsFoodWritingFilms & TV SeriesTravelHistory
Ich unterrichte seit 4 Jahren leidenschaftlich gerne Deutsch und habe dieses Jahr (2024) beschlossen mich der Sache komplett zu widmen. Ich liebe das Gefühl meinen Schülern geholfen zu haben und ihren Fortschritt mitzuerleben!
Ich reise viel durch die Welt und liebe es neue Kulturen kennenzulernen. In meinem Leben habe ich zwei große Passionen: Das Eislaufen, und das Schreiben.
Beruflich war ich fast 5 Jahre in der HR (Human Resources) Branche aktiv, und habe viel Erfahrung Bewerbern mit ihren cover letters, CVs, und Interviews zu helfen.Me as a Teacher
Being persistent is key when learning any language. I'm here to help keep you engaged and progressing towards your goals! Jede Person ist anders. Mein Ziel als deine Lehrerin ist, dass Du jede Stunde mit einem guten Gefühl beendest. Vielleicht lernst Du tierisch gerne Grammatik, oder vielleicht schläfst Du dabei ein. Vielleicht hilft es dir ganz, ganz, ganz, ganz viele Übungen zu machen. Vielleicht möchtest Du einen Lehrerin, die dir die Theorie erklärt und Du machst die Übungen alleine. Egal was dein bevorzugter Lernstil ist, ich bin hier um dich auf deinem Weg zu begleiten!My lessons & teaching style
In the first lesson, we'll explore your goals and what you want to get out of this experience. All further lessons will be based on this. Of course, we'll check in with each other to see if there's anything you'd like different, if plans have changed, or your priorities have just shifted.
If I notice you're getting bored, then I switch things up by introducing new media or shifting the focus to topics of interest to you. I don't just want to teach you German, I want to keep you motivated along the ride because it's a long, bumpy road to fluency.My teaching material

Teaching experience
2020 - 2023
Part-time Private Tutor1-on-1 tutoring both on- & offline. Students were exclusively adults learning German as a hobby, or preparing to move to Germany / apply for a Visa. Average tutoring duration was 6 months. Shorter if the primary goal was test preparation.
2024 - Current
Full-time Online TutorTypical students are adults pursuing German as a hobby, job seekers and on occasion those looking to pass a specific certification. For hobby-learners classes are kept casual and focused on what is of interest to the student, while making sure progress is still made. For job seekers the focus is on writing CVs and cover letters and running through mock interviews. For those looking to pass a test we go over mock exams together and target weakest areas for maximum improvement.

I have enjoyed lessons with Elena, she is very patient and able to explain things well, with a good balance of vocabulary building and the teaching of gramatical concepts. I look forward to continue learning with her as my teacher

Elena is a really good teacher. In the class, you can feel that you are not only getting familiar with a foreign language, but also learning a lot of practical grammar skills. Not just practice, but also think, to help your level have a real improvement, rather than repeating what you know. After class, she will also organize the content of the class, which helps you review.

Elena is such a patient and considerate teacher. My 12 year old daughter had a great first lesson with her.

The session was very helpful. We covered different texts, practised pronunciation and any words I struggled with were immediately clarified.
