DLL-certified German teacher (Goethe-Institut) · 5,000+ lessons · 100% pass rate in ÖSD/Goethe exam Whether you're starting from scratch or already know more German than you give yourself credit for, I'll help you build the confidence to actually use it in real conversation, and sound like a local, not a textbook. I know what it feels like to search for words and come up empty — I spent years doing that in Peru when I was learning Spanish as an adult. That's why my lessons focus on real conversation, with grammar woven in naturally, and gentle correction along the way. And don't make the mistake of trying to be perfect. My motto: fluent, not flawless! Whatever your goal is: everyday confidence, workplace communication, an exam, applying for citizenship, or just finally feeling at ease in German — I can help. I'm native in (Austrian) German and also speak English and Spanish fluently — and if you're curious about the differences between Austrian and German German, dialects and regional quirks included, that's one of my favorite topics to dig into.

16+ years experience in distance teaching and learning Hello, my name is Stephan. I am German and currently living in Finland. Language learning should be fun. Conversation and active use of a language is the fastest way to become fluent. Conversation, games, roleplays, interaction are great tools to use a language and become fluent in a joyful way. Since 2010, I exercise conversation training with various conversation partner and in various languages. I am teaching on italki since 2022. I like to help you to learn German as your conversation partner and teacher and support you to reach your learning goals. I am happy to adapt to your needs and wishes. If you like, I suggest to compose each lecture from several blocks, such free speaking, Grammar and Vocabulary repetitions, a presentation by you or a roleplay to practice context-related language, as well as language exercises and games, discussion about books, magazines, newspapers, and homework exercises. Of course, I am as well answering any questions you might have or bring into the lesson :). I have a technical background by profession, but I also like arts, nature or sports.

*9 years of teaching experience*personalized & fun lessons*TEST-Prep for Language Institutes and FSP Möchtest du dein Deutsch in einer entspannten und persönlichen Lernatmosphäre verbessern? Dann bist du bei mir richtig! Mein Name ist Jürgen Kallee, ich bin 34 Jahre alt und komme aus Wien, Österreich. Heute lebe ich in Südvietnam. Ich bin ausgebildeter Physiotherapeut und arbeite seit mehreren Jahren als Deutsch-Tutor auf italki. In meinem Unterricht stehen drei Dinge im Mittelpunkt: eine angenehme Lernatmosphäre, individuelle Ziele und praktische Anwendung. Du sollst dich trauen, frei zu sprechen, Fragen zu stellen und Fehler zu machen – denn genau dadurch entwickelt sich dein Deutsch weiter. Ich passe meinen Unterricht an dein Niveau, deine Ziele und deine persönlichen Schwierigkeiten an. Gemeinsam finden wir heraus, wo deine Stärken und Schwächen liegen, schließen gezielt Lücken in Grammatik und Wortschatz und arbeiten daran, dass du dich immer sicherer und natürlicher ausdrücken kannst. Je nach Unterrichtsart arbeite ich mit Gesprächen, Texten, Videos, Übungen, Prüfungssimulationen und modernen digitalen Werkzeugen. Auch KI-Tools und Sprachapplikationen setze ich gezielt ein, wenn sie für deinen Lernfortschritt sinnvoll sind. Ob Konversation, Grammatik, österreichischer Dialekt oder Prüfungsvorbereitung – mein Ziel ist nicht, dir einfach Deutsch beizubringen, sondern dir zu helfen, Deutsch selbstbewusst und praktisch zu benutzen.

Native German with 7+ years of experience in teaching conversational lessons I studied Egyptology and Islamic studies and moved to Egypt 12 years ago. I am passionate about animal welfare (you probably will see one or several of my cats during our lessons) and I like to talk about different topics like environmental issues, habits, cultures and traditions, healthy lifestyle and so on. As a teacher I am calm and patient and try to correct mistakes in a way that makes you feel comfortable and not afraid to make mistakes. I am currently not teaching beginners or children. My lessons start with completed A2 level. I don't teach grammar, but I can help you to improve your conversational skills. I mostly use audios with manuscript, articles, pictures or videos in my lessons. The most important for me is that you get to speak. That you feel comfortable talking in German and that you do not feel shy or afraid to make mistakes. Mistakes are the best way to learn and improve. Please be aware that it's not possible to cancel/reschedule the lesson if there is less than 24 hours before the lesson time begins. This includes time zone/lesson time misunderstandings, so please check your time zone before booking.

An FBI-inspired method to help you speak sooner I was born in Germany and moved to the United States when I was twenty. I have been teaching while pursuing my acting career in New York, Los Angeles, Atlanta, and Germany. I have taught adults and children from many backgrounds for more than 25 years. I teach German and English at all levels, and beginners in French and Japanese. My teaching is clear, encouraging, and structured. Students describe me as patient, positive, and easy to understand. I want you to feel safe speaking, making mistakes, and improving step by step. What makes my approach special is that I use language-learning principles inspired by how institutions such as the CIA and FBI train languages: quick recall, immediate sentence building, and active speaking from the beginning. The key is not just memorizing words, but using them instantly. We practice vocabulary through interval recall while forming real sentences, so your brain learns to retrieve the language naturally. I also use pictures for simple prompt-and-response conversations. This helps even beginners speak from the start: I show or describe something, ask guided questions, and help you answer in complete sentences. CANCELLATION POLICY I have a 24-hour cancellation policy. Please use the italki system to reschedule or cancel lessons with more than 24 hours’ notice. Please do not request rescheduling within 24 hours. If you cannot attend, let me know and schedule a new lesson online. I appreciate you and value your time.

German for Business and Office Communication levels B1-C1 - 13 years of teaching experience I’ve been teaching German as a foreign language since 2011. I've taught in language schools, online and in companies. I also worked as a project manager for more than 3.5 years, so I know what it’s like to work in an office and to use Business German. In our class, we will practice speaking about different topics in general and work-related content in specific. We will write professional emails, practice phone calls and improve your grammar skills and vocabulary. My teaching method involves using so-called "drills" (practice of specific language components by repeating them over and over when speaking), which will help you memorize specific grammar, vocabulary and also pronunciation.

Hi! I'm passionate about languages and teaching. Hopefully, I can assist you on your German learning endeavor. Learning a new language is pretty cool and almost like getting a superpower. But I know from experience how scary it can sometimes be to talk in a foreign language. More often than not, people give up because they don't want to embarrass themselves by making a mistake. Which is a shame. Because mistakes are great. They show us where we can still improve. So, I'm here to tell you to never give up! It's worth to put in some effort even if it means to stumble along the way. Over time, you'll appreciate how far you've come. My main focus are conversation classes. I'll provide a comforting environment where you can relax and won't feel afraid to make mistakes. My classes are welcome to anyone who is interested in learning German, whether you are a beginner, intermediate or advanced. I'm not here to judge you but help building confidence in your speaking abilities in fun and engaging ways.
