Masters in Language Education, specialized in 1:1 online teaching; grounded in the latest research What sets me apart is my deep understanding of how the brain works for language learning. With an understanding of cognitive psychology and extensive experience teaching as well learning myself 4 languages to high proficiency, I have developed an innovative and research-based teaching methodology that maximizes your language acquisition and retention. I exercise common sense and respect in my classes. My goal is for you to learn the language so that you can use it to be successful in many other areas of your life. Actually, I envy you that you have the opportunity to have someone who understands so much about language learning. It's not just about grammar and vocab; it goes much deeper =)

Not sure where to start or how to feel more confident speaking German? Good. That's where we begin. Hi, I'm Heike. I’ve been teaching German online since 2016, and what I enjoy most is that moment when something suddenly clicks and learners realise: “I can actually do this.” I work with all levels, but I have a soft spot for beginners. I hold a Magistra Artium in Ethnology, Archaeology & Sociology, and yes, I worked as an archaeologist in Peru. That background shapes how I teach: language is not just grammar, but culture, history and people. In my lessons, you speak from day one. We work with real-life situations and build your confidence step by step. A shared Google Doc keeps everything in one place. For grammar, I use Deutschfuchs. Homework is optional, but it really helps. Hola, soy Heike. Enseño alemán online desde 2016, y lo que más me gusta es ese momento en que algo encaja y el estudiante piensa: “sí puedo hacerlo”. Trabajo con todos los niveles, pero tengo especial cariño por principiantes. ¿No sabes por dónde empezar? Por ahí empezamos. Tengo una Magistra Artium en Etnología, Arqueología y Sociología, y sí, trabajé como arqueóloga en Perú. Esa experiencia define mi enfoque: el idioma no es solo gramática, sino cultura, historia y personas. En mis clases hablas desde el primer día. Trabajamos con situaciones reales y construimos tu confianza paso a paso. Un Google Doc compartido lo guarda todo. Para la gramática uso Deutschfuchs. Explico con claridad, hago las preguntas adecuadas y doy feedback honesto. Los deberes son opcionales, pero ayudan de verdad.

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.

Energetic, fun and REAL CONVERSATION classes with a motivated teacher 🗣️🇩🇪 I am a teacher but first and foremost I am also a forever student. Through my work as an Aupair in which I practised German with Kids aged 6 to 10 and through my language studies at University I learned that you can only teach others if you are also willing to learn and consistently drive to better your own skills. From learning many foreign languages myself I have developed my own personal hacks and tips on how to most effectively learn a new language. I accept lesson cancellations or reschedules with less than 24 hours in advance. However, this depends on my current lesson demand and schedule therefore I will decide on that for each individual case.

Hungarian: citizenship interview preparation/general teaching, German: grammar/communication/exams Would you like to learn Hungarian or German from scratch, finally start making real progress, or prepare for a language exam or the Hungarian Simplified Citizenship Interview? I’m here to guide you every step of the way. As a professional language teacher specializing in Hungarian and German, I focus on communication, speaking fluency, and clear, structured learning. My lessons are always tailored to your personal goals—whether that’s passing an exam, handling real-life situations, or speaking with confidence and ease. At the heart of my teaching is natural conversation. You speak freely, without interruption, just like in real life. While you talk, I take notes, and afterward we review and correct key mistakes together. This way, your communication stays smooth and natural, while your accuracy improves quickly and effectively. I also design targeted homework based on your needs, so every lesson builds on the last. If you have problems with grammar, I can also help you with that. I specialize in breaking down complex structures into simple, logical steps, helping you truly understand how the language works. I’m genuinely curious about people. I enjoy conversations about culture, sports, psychology, literature, films, and everyday life—so we’ll always have engaging topics to talk about. I’m said to be very patient as a teacher, and I actually like mistakes! So don’t ever worry about making them in my lessons—we need them in order to improve your Hungarian or German!

In the words of Joseph Campbell, we human beings do best when we "follow our bliss." Throughout my adult life, teaching, and particularly teaching German, has been my bliss. I was fortunate to recognize teaching as my vocation when I was in college, and l had excellent training in language pedagogy when I was accepted as a teaching assistant at Ohio State's graduate program. I am at my happiest and most fulfilled when I am teaching a language class, whether face to face or online (a modality in which I became proficient during the Covid epidemic). For years I have had excellent teaching evaluations from my students, whether in the classroom or in one on one tutoring.

I'm a perfectionist. I like to see my students succeed. My students have a very high (above 90%) success rate when it comes to passing their language exams. Having been a language learner by myself, I have unbeatable strategies to pass even the most difficult exams (IELTS, TOEFL, FCE). Having learnt different languages allows me to shift between grammatical terms and explanations easily: if you learn Hungarian with me, you can be sure that I can relate it to one of the other languages you are speaking - thus making it easier and easier to proceed! :)Call me now to get a trial lesson with me! :))
