German coach For me it's important to make sure that my students are confident in their skills to build upon them. Language learning often is hard and time consuming. So I want to make it as fun as possible by using media and motivate students by showing them what they have achieved so far using practical examples. Es ist mir wichtig, sicherzugehen, dass meine Schüler sicher in ihren Fertigkeiten sind, um darauf aufzubauen. Eine Sprache zu lernen ist oftmals schwierig und zeitintensiv. Daher möchte ich ihnen es so angenehm wie möglich machen, indem ich verschiedene Medien nutze und sie dahingehend motivere, dass ich ihnen anhand von praktischen Beispielen zeige, was sie bereits erreicht haben.

Certified teacher and linguist with many years of teaching experience As a trained linguist with many years of experience, I’ve had the joy of teaching students from all walks of life. From Russian and German at a Japanese university to shaping a Russian coursebook and teaching across Germany, Russia, and Japan, my journey has been all about helping people unlock new languages. I’m known for my patience and love for making even the trickiest language rules—like grammar—easy to understand. Whether you’re stuck on a word or curious about culture, I’m here to guide you. But what I enjoy most is watching my students’ progress (I know it sounds a bit cheezy :)) —but it’s the best part of teaching, knowing that every step forward brings a new sense of achievement.

German through dialogue, focus, and inspiration Lessons with me are not just 60 minutes of German. This is not about “covering the material.” It is about being in dialogue, attention, and real connection. I hold a Master’s in Pedagogy (Switzerland) and a Bachelor in Pedagogy (Russia), and I have Goethe Certificate C2 in German (2023) and C1 in English (2021) + Russian and Spanish. I have over 10 years of experience teaching children and adults in schools and language centers (Moscow, Bern, Malta, Barcelona). Here, it’s not about being perfect. It’s about being engaged. You are hearty welcome!

Learn to speak German - With a native Speaker // Aprende alemán hablando - Con un hablante nativo I teach in Spanish, English and German Ich möchte die Einheiten möglichst entspannt gestalten – du sollst Spaß beim Lernen haben, denn ich denke, dass es so einfacher ist, konsequent weiter zu lernen. Ich selbst habe die Sprachen, die ich beherrsche, mit wenig Grammatik gelernt – somit sind Gespräche und nicht Grammatik zu meiner Art zu unterrichten geworden. Quiero que las sesiones sean lo más relajadas posible: quiero que disfrutes aprendiendo, porque pienso que así es más fácil seguir aprendiendo de forma constante. Yo mismo aprendí los idiomas que domino con poca gramática, así que las conversaciones —y no la gramática— se convirtieron en mi forma de enseñar.
