German Native Speaker (Standard German) With A Passion For Teaching And Learning Languages --> Suitable for levels from B1 to C2. --> I only use MS Teams (you require a private Teams account). --> Before booking your first lesson please message me indicating your current level and language learning goals. Hi there! My name is Barbara, I'm from Germany, and I have been offering German conversation practice here on italki since May 2020. I am talkative, patient, flexible, and open-minded. I discovered my passion for teaching early on when I started tutoring English in high school. I hold a degree as a Foreign Language Correspondent for English and have used Business English, French, and Spanish throughout my career at various international companies. Through years of video calls with speakers from all over the world, I've gained a deep understanding of the typical challenges you face with German grammar and pronunciation. My Teaching Style I prefer an informal and relaxed teaching style. We can talk about any topic of your choice to suit your needs. If you're unsure what to talk about, I'll be glad to guide the conversation. How we can work together: Practice speaking more fluently and confidently. Correct grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation. Review your German emails, letters, or homework. Wherever you are from, I am excited to help you improve. Let's get started—I look forward to meeting you soon!

Binational (FR/DE) polyglot and certified teacher. 8+ years of experience and 13 000 lessons taught. I’m 33, half French and half German, and a native speaker of both languages with dual citizenship. I developed a strong interest in American culture as a teenager, which led me to teach myself English to a native level, including accent, through constant exposure and conversation. This success inspired me to pursue other languages. I reached an intermediate level in Mandarin and an advanced level in Japanese and Korean after living in both countries for several years. Students value my ability to create engaging and natural conversations, my strong focus on active listening, my broad knowledge in a wide range of fields, and my very international background, especially for English-speaking and Asian learners. I’m fluent in five languages and bring extensive experience as both a learner and teacher, helping students feel confident at any level. I have completed two teaching certifications, CELTA and DAEFLE, which equipped me with effective teaching methods and practical classroom skills. My teaching approach emphasizes meaningful interaction and immersion. That means listening, reading, and speaking as much as possible, similar to how children learn their native language. I'm convinced that this is the most effective path to fluency. As your teacher, I will guide, motivate, and support you while making lessons enjoyable and engaging. My goal is to help you see language learning as a fun, rewarding, and enriching experience, not a chore. Note: I don’t teach students under 16

Polyglot teacher with over 10 years experience of teaching languages As a polyglot, I would like to help you develop methods to leverage the knowledge of all of your languages and dialects in learning German. Of course it is perfectly fine, if you are monolingual. Professionally, in language teaching, I own a certificate for language teaching to adults specializing among other things in teaching writing systems. Here, as a teacher, I intend to develop materials and routines which will help you most achieve your goals in learning German. We will identify those linguistic structures in German together, which are most alien to you given your possibly multilingual background. It is those structures which are usually hardest to learn.

Sowohl in meiner meiner langjährigen Arbeit als Nachhilfelehrer als auch in meiner Tätigkeit als DaF-Lehrkraft habe ich bereits viel Erfahrung beim Unterrichten sammeln können, die ich gerne an Euch weitergebe! If you are not yet comfortable speaking German during the whole lesson, we can also easily switch to English to clarify crucial questions as well as vocabulary. Se vocês quiserem, podemos falar em português também já que isso pode ajudar à compreensão da gramática ou de palavras difíceis. No duden en hablar en español conmigo, si les ayuda a ustedes a sentirse a gusto en nuestras clases y a aclarar preguntas esenciales. لو تريدون أن تتكلموا بالعربية, سأكون سعيد بمساعدتكم

Certified Language Assessor | Structured German | Business & Fluency Hi, I’m Tobias - Professional Teacher & Language Assessor 🎓 Effective language learning starts with diagnostic feedback. Most learners plateau because they lack a systematic analysis of their errors. As a language assessor conducting exams for global corporations, I evaluate your competence at a professional level. I pinpoint error patterns instantly to transform them into strengths. Why My Method Works: ✅ The Assessor’s Edge: I apply international corporate standards to every lesson. You get a clear analysis of your speech and writing to refine your precision. ✅ Flipped Classroom: We do not waste time on lectures. You prepare materials beforehand; in class, we focus 100% on active application. ✅ Live Documentation: Your personal Google Doc serves as a live protocol for vocabulary and corrections through my assessor lens. ✅ Extemporaneous Speaking: I use constant questioning to turn your prepared knowledge into real-time, fluent speech. This builds the confidence needed for professional communication. ✅ Logic and Examples: I explain grammar hurdles using the underlying system and plenty of examples until the structure becomes intuitive. What to Expect: A structured, results-driven environment for adults seeking professional success. I make German manageable through calm, high-level expertise. ⚠️ Note: My calendar is typically booked 2–3 weeks in advance. I recommend booking packages to secure slots for consistent progress. Let’s reach your goals together! 🚀
