Relaxed Conversational Class I’m a native Slovene speaker, a C2 level English speaker, and I hold a degree in German and Spanish. I use German daily at work. Over time, I’ve mastered these languages in both accent and expression. I can communicate with native speakers of all these languages with ease and confidence. That’s exactly what I want for you — to speak easily and confidently. I easily adapt to your level and personality, creating lessons that feel natural, comfortable, and engaging. You’ll be improving constantly — sometimes without even noticing it! 😉 I will take care of that the lessons are in no way a burden, but a time for fun and easy-going learning.

💫 friendly atmosphere and simple teaching style 💫 I am delighted to be able to offer my students knowledge and support in their learning process. Helping others is important to me and I enjoy sharing materials and guidelines I have come up with. On top of everything else, I love working on Italki, when we can learn from each other and as a tourism manager by profession, I find contact with people from other countries motivating. I will try to do my best to fit your needs according to lesson duration, frequency and your devotion to the task. At the end of a lesson, you are very likely to be given homework to make sure you absorbed all the teaching material.

Goethe certificate in methodology and didactics: Trained teacher with over 8 years of experience I am very lucky because I love my profession. But passion alone is not enough to be a good teacher. You also need didactic, methodical and pedagogical skills. For this reason I decided to attend the distance learning course "DaF Methodik und Didaktik" at the Goethe Institute in June 2019. I successfully passed the final exam. I am convinced that teachers need to be constantly trained, too. So they are able to offer their students the best teaching performance.

Native German teacher, 9+ years of experience in the areas pronunciation, test preparation/ business ✔ If you are beginner, we will start with pronunciation first and then build grammar from there - that is the only way to sound native-like and avoid mistakes in the long run! ✔ If you are intermediate, I'll also give you a basic understanding of the German sounds to increase your awareness, with a special focus on the sounds you don't have in your native language ("sound gaps"). ✔ Throughout my lessons, I like to refer back to the individual sounds /aka "building blocks" of the German language - this has lead to great results for many of my students! ✔ I like you to find and correct your own (pronunciation) mistakes before I correct you (silent way approach)

Confident German, Step by Step! With Patience and Support! ^__^ My passion for teaching German started back in university and only grew stronger while I was traveling. I especially loved helping exchange students from Japan and the U.S. with their German studies, that experience truly sparked my love for language teaching! Later, when I lived in Taiwan, I taught both German and English to students of all ages, including teachers. Every class and every learner helped shape my teaching style and made me even more excited to share the German language with others.

I am a certified TestDaF and telc examiner. I specialise in test preparation. Language lessons can be fun, but language-learning is certainly time-consuming and occasionally frustrating. I am therefore aiming at establishing a collaborative relationship with you and keeping you motivated and inspired along the way. I look forward to working together with you!

German Teacher (M.A. in German Linguistics, Focus on DaF) During my studies, I provided online private lessons. In the pandemic, I taught online German courses using the Direct Method (influenced by the Callan Method) at an accredited language school in Slovakia. After my studies, I moved to Austria. As mentioned above, I taught intensive courses to refugees daily. Während des Studiums habe ich online Privatkurse gegeben. Bei der Pandemie habe ich online in einer akkreditierten Sprachschule in der Slowakei Deutschkurse nach der Direct Method (beeinflusst von der Callan Method) geleitet. Nach dem Masterschluss bin ich nach Österreich gezogen. Wie oben erwähnt, habe ich Flüchtlingen Intensivkursen täglich über einem Jahr gegeben.

Professional polyglot teacher with more than 10 years experience I really love sharing my passion for languages and I enjoy the most seeing how my students progress in their language studies. I speak slowly - as much as it can be a drawback in life, it is an asset in teaching, because this helps the student processing the language easier, at their own pace. I have formal education in all of the languages, so I know and I can help with grammar if you need. My main goal, though, is to help you improve your speaking skills. Having learned multiple languages makes it possible for me to understand the struggles in language learning and to offer clear explanations and concrete tips about different aspects of the language or the learning process itself.

Personalised & Supportive Learning for Confident Conversations As a teacher, I prioritise kindness and patience, having gone through the language learning process myself, I understand that it's not always a linear journey. Sometimes you find it easy, while at other times it can be frustrating. I want to help you overcome any obstacles that you encounter in your learning journey and ensure that you enjoy the process, while keeping a relaxed atmosphere. I also believe in holistic and human-centered learning and I want students to become curious and confident learners. I encourage all my students to bring questions and observations into the lessons as you will learn most when you are really engaged in the process.

As I have been living in many countries, I have always worked as a private tutor to teach my foreign friends and contacts Chinese and at the same time, teaching my Chinese friends German or English. I am a very communicative, organised and open person, so I often encourage my students to keep practicing. Don't be afraid to make mistakes! Also, in my opinion, it is very important for me to know the needs of my students so that I can do my best to prepare materials, videos, documents before lessons to keep my students motivated! 友達に日本語を教えた経験があって、外国のビジネス関係者や友人に中国とドイツ語のレッスンをした経験もあります。レッスンの前に、あなたの中国語かドイツ語のレベルを聞かせていただきいて、できるだけあなたのレベルに応じて授業を差し上げます。
