Zertifizierte DAF Lehrkraft mit über vier Jahren Unterrichtserfahrung I am convinced that learning a new language in a natural way like children do, is the best and most efficient way to speak on a native level. You don't have to struggle with endless amounts of grammar exercises, studying grammar books or long lists of vocabulary in order to gain fluidity. Before children learn about grammar rules in school they are about 10 years and speak fluently. I have been tutoring children and teenagers for 10 years now and concentrating on conversations mostly as well as keeping them motivated is one of the most essential tools. Seeing my students making progress and achieving their goal within only a short time is an incredibly rewarding experience!

✹PROFESSIONAL NATIVE GERMAN TEACHER WITH PASSION✹ I started teaching German to international students in 2009 as a private tutor during my university studies.

After graduation I took several courses to become a professional teacher and soon got a job at a reputable high school in Taiwan.

Learn German using a full immersion-method! I have been teaching German since 2000 to people who need German for their work, for their studies and for travel. I have work experience in teaching business German and test preparation for all levels. And I follow polyglots because they have interesting learning techniques! In my lessons, I use videos with topics that the students prefer, because I think that we learn best when we deal with topics that we love to talk about. PLEASE READ: I am happy to help with rescheduling classes up to 1 day before the scheduled time, but I do not accept last minute changes. I do not teach children on italki - people under 18 years.

I tutored many students for years at my old school in the german language and now I am teaching german as a volunteer at french schools. That’s why I also have a lot of experience tutoring people with different mother tongues. Ich habe Jahrelang verschiedensten Schüler*innen an meiner alten Schule Deutschnachhilfe gegeben und bringe nun Kindern an französischen Schulen Deutsch bei, als Freiwilligendienst. Von den Menschen die ich bereits unterrichtet habe, hatten viele unterschiedliche Muttersprachen.
Diplomierter Deutschlehrer | TestDaF & Goethe-Experte Mein Unterricht folgt der kommunikativen Methode: Deutsch ist Werkzeug, nicht Theorie. Im Mittelpunkt stehen Sie – Ihre Ziele, Vorkenntnisse und Persönlichkeit. Wir trainieren das „Wie“: authentische Gespräche führen, in Alltagssituationen handeln, Verstehen erreichen. Grammatik dient dabei der Verständigung, nicht der Fehlerfreiheit. Alle vier Fertigkeiten (Hören, Sprechen, Lesen, Schreiben) werden verbunden trainiert, angepasst an Ihr Ziel – ob Beruf, Studium oder Alltag in D/A/CH. Interkulturelles Wissen ist dabei essenziell. Vor Beginn stufe ich Ihr Niveau ein und empfehle den passenden Kurs.

14+ years experience in distance teaching and learning Since 2010, I constantly learn together with conversation partners in various languages. From this experience, I have gained ideas how language learning through conversation and via the internet is fun and efficient. My professional background is in education, but not in languages but in technical domains. This is is a little different than teaching in 1:1 settings, but I am still using several ideas from my other life also on italki. I like to help you to learn German as your conversation partner and teacher and support you to reach your learning goals.

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.

Individualisiertes Deutschtraining und Lektürekurse durch erfahrenen Lehrer und Dr. der Philosophie Zu Beginn unserer Zusammenarbeit besprechen wir Ihre Ziele und unsere Arbeitsweise (Umfang der Hausaufgaben, Materialien, etc.) Wir gehen immer von Ihrem Deutsch aus, so wie es ist, und verbessern einzelne Elemente. Mit mir können Sie an gutem Ausdruck arbeiten, in Wort und Schritt, oder am Verständnis anspruchsvoller Texte bzw. audiovisueller Dokumente. Ich bringe viel Erfahrung als Lehrer und Deutschlehrer ein, auch, dass ich selbst in Frankreich lebe und erst spät meine Zweitsprache erlernt habe. Ich arbeite auch als Nachhilfelehrer (für Latein, Deutsch und Französisch). Grammatik und Co vermittle ich kompakt, einerseits mit Überblick, andererseits immer genau bei einem Schritt.

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.
