✔ Take your German to the next Level I’ve started private teaching in 2014. I have no accent, and I teach in standard German. In the beginning I taught people from East Asia, but today my students are coming from all over the world. I'm particularly interested in languages like Japanese, Chinese and Korean. Right now I'm trying to master Japanese. Understanding how these languages are structured gives me the opportunity to teach you German in a more understandable way. In addition, I can help you, to pass the TestDaF, which is the general German language test for foreigners, who want to start studying at a German University. I've also experience in preparing students for the DSH language test and the Goethe-Zertifikat.

YOU´RE THE MASTER OF YOUR GOALS AND DREAMS I LOVE to teach, to learn and share knowledge. We have the ability to constantly learn something new. And if we´re enjoying it, then learning becomes easy - that helps us to reach our goals faster. And if some things need more time then accept it, then everything is a process. If the seed is planes the flower will bloom when time is right. Many of my students are saying that I´m funny – I believe them. In that case I guess our lessons could be fun but I´m also patient, helpful, and supportive.

在德国教德语的中国老师 / Certified Polyglot German Teacher with Linguistics Background Hello! My name is Runzhi, and I am a certified German teacher for integration classes with over five years of experience. I hold a degree in German and English Philology (FU Berlin) and a teaching certificate from Humboldt University. Speaking five languages fluently, I understand the challenges of language learning from the inside and use that insight to help my students progress quickly and confidently. Outside teaching, I work in linguistic research and translation, and enjoy gardening, cooking, cinema, and the arts. I have taught German as a foreign language in diverse settings, from intensive courses to corporate training, both online and in person, with learners from A1 to C2. I specialise in building speaking confidence, refining grammar, and developing real-world communication skills. My lessons are clear, practical, and goal-oriented. I strike a balance between structure and active practice, tailoring each session to your needs. I focus on real-life topics and communication skills while reinforcing grammar and vocabulary in context. My teaching style can be fast-paced and challenging, especially if you're eager to make quick progress. I aim to create a space where you feel supported, motivated, and engaged every step of the way. I use a focus-on-form approach, where I integrate grammar into meaningful communication so you can apply it naturally.

Qualified Native German Tutor with 10+ years experience I really enjoy teaching German and seeing my students progress. I have been teaching German since 2012 and my students are all ages and levels. From complete beginners to C2 students, and from those preparing for an exam to those who would just like to learn a few sentences before their holidays. I am very flexible and friendly, and I understand completely how difficult it can be to learn a new language - I have been there myself. In 2019, I completed the Level 3 Award in Adult Education and Training to give me additional knowledge about all elements of teaching students who are 16 years and older. I also offer online lessons for children who are 10 years and older.

FSP-Vorbereitung mit systemnaher Kommunikation I was born and raised in Germany. During my university studies, I took an elective called 'Integrationsmentoring', which inspired me to teach on italki. For my exam, I had to present a solution to integrate foreign specialists. My approach was to create medical German classes for doctors (FSP). Von Beruf bin ich studierte Medizinische Dokumentarin (Studienschwerpunkt: Medizin, Statistik und Informatik) sowie Wirtschaftsinformatikerin. Ich arbeite in der medizinischen Forschung an einem Universitätsklinikum. Es freut mich sehr, wenn meine Schüler ihre Prüfung mit Lob bestehen - besonders in Städten mit hoher Durchfallquote. Was mich von anderen FSP-Lehrern unterscheidet: - Ich programmiere die Eingabemasken für die Dokumentation im Krankenhaus, z.B. für verschiedene Arten von Anamnesen, und weiß, wie detailliert gefragt werden muss. - Ich lese routinemäßig viele Arztbriefe und erkenne bei Schülern, wenn Pflichtinformationen fehlen. - Mein Studium vermittelte medizinische Fachsprache gezielt auf ärztlichem Niveau. - Keine FSP-Bücher - laut Schülern oft zu oberflächlich für die Prüfung. - Mein Unterricht basiert auf echter Klinikpraxis.

My work as a teacher includes teaching groups, kids and private students and preparing them for exams from beginners to B2. Some of my students want to improve their skills in order to study in Germany or a German-speaking country. Others need to improve their language skills because of their work in a corporate environment. My classes focus on language skills, such as fluency for professional and private settings, preparing for job interviews or presentations, and dealing with all kind of real-life situations the students may face.
