The best German tutors for you

Certified Native German Teacher – Speak with Confidence and Enjoy Learning :) Hallo! My name is Kai, I am a native German speaker and a certified German teacher with around ten years of teaching experience. I have taught students from many different countries, both online and in person, from complete beginners to advanced learners. Every lesson is adapted to your personal goals, interests and learning style :) My main goal is to help you actually speak German. Of course, we can also work on grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, writing, exam preparation or German for work. But you will always have plenty of opportunities to talk, ask questions, make mistakes and become more confident step by step. My lessons are friendly, relaxed and practical. Mistakes are completely normal and an important part of learning a language, so you never need to feel nervous or embarrassed in my classes :) I speak several foreign languages myself, including English, Romanian, Spanish and Italian. Therefore, I know from personal experience what it is like to learn a new language and can explain difficult topics clearly. We can use textbooks, articles, videos, exercises or conversation topics. Whether you prefer a structured learning plan or mainly want to practise speaking, the lessons are designed around you :) Book a trial lesson and tell me what you would like to achieve. I look forward to meeting you and helping you make real progress in German! :)

Deutschunterricht für Lernende aller Altersgruppen und Kulturen Hallo! Mein Name ist Brigitte. Meine Familie und ich sind nach Deutschland gezogen, als ich noch ganz klein war. Ich bin zweisprachig aufgewachsen und kenne es, Dinge im Deutschen genauer zu erklären. Gerade die Grammatik ist für viele ein großes Hindernis. Ich würde mich sehr freuen, dir dabei zur Seite zu stehen! 😊 Da ich selbst seit über sechs Jahren Chinesisch lerne, weiß ich, dass man viel Geduld und Motivation braucht, um eine Sprache zu lernen. Ganz wichtig ist, dass man nicht zu streng mit sich selbst ist und den Humor bewahrt, wenn man etwas noch nicht so richtig aussprechen kann. Auch eine Portion Mut kann ich jedem ans Herz legen, weil es wirklich hilft, mit anderen Deutschen zu sprechen – das ist das beste Training! 💪 Ich freue mich darauf, dir in deinem Lerntempo mit interessanten Übungen und Videos zu helfen. Ich bin deutsche Muttersprachlerin und lebe seit meinem zweiten Lebensjahr in Deutschland. In meiner Freizeit engagiere ich mich ehrenamtlich. Dabei habe ich mit vielen unterschiedlichen Menschen zu tun, mit denen ich mich austausche und denen ich etwas beibringe. Ich werde mich bemühen, dir bei allen Fragen und Wünschen rund um den Unterricht behilflich zu sein. Melde dich gerne für eine Probestunde bei mir.

Alltagsdeutsch trifft auf Behördendeutsch, authentisch und geduldig. Hallo, ich bin Jenny, ich bin gebürtige Deutsche und arbeite seit über 20 Jahren beruflich mit präzisem, formellem Deutsch. Gleichzeitig kenne ich auch das lockere Alltagsdeutsch sehr gut, ich also weiß genau, wie man es verständlich erklärt, ohne dass es trocken wirkt. Seit Januar 2025 bin ich mit meinem Mann und unseren zwei Kindern auf Weltreise. Dieser Perspektivwechsel hat mir gezeigt, wie wichtig es ist, sich in einer fremden Sprache und Kultur wirklich verstanden zu fühlen. Genau dabei möchte ich dir helfen, egal ob du Deutsch für den Beruf, einen Umzug oder einfach aus Neugier lernst. Ich unterrichte gerne mit klarer Struktur, aber ohne Druck, bringt du eine konkrete Situation mit (eine E-Mail oder ein Gespräch das ansteht), arbeiten wir direkt daran. Ich freue mich darauf, dich kennenzulernen und dich mit meiner Erfahrung und Offenheit zu unterstützen. Bis bald in unserer ersten Lektion. Herzliche Grüße Jenny

Hello, my name is Axel and i'm a German and french teacher on Italki, i'm 26 years old and i'm a drums teacher and history student. I love to make music, i love history and politics, and football. I grew up bilingual, with French and German, and i absolutely love to languages. I'd be very glad to share this with you, and learn some German or French together. To me it is very important to adapt myself to the student, and to taylor the lesson to their needs. Personally i love input based learning, and learning words and new grammatical structures in context, using stories dialogues, and keeping things fresh and interesting. In the first lesson we learn to know each others and then see whatwould be the method most suited to your learning style. I will give you material to listen to and to read and exercises, always depending on your needs and your own preferences.

Certified Teacher + Language Coach helping you make learning effective and sustainable for life✨️ I'm glad you're here! I have 6 years of teaching experience, and am largely self taught in 10 languages w/ a degree in German + 150-hour TEFL certification. I understand linguistic challenges and psychological struggles that hold us back (perfectionism, self criticism, guilt, heritage languages, etc.). My goal is to help you reach your goals by making your learning effective, sustainable, and enjoyable for life. I structure students' lessons according to learning style and goals, focusing on the whole person they are behind their studies. Therefore, building long term student relationships is very important to my work. I find different ways to explain a concept and understand how to energize my lessons through new material and adapt to your preferred learning style, staying patient, determined and flexible to only offer the best in helping students from A0 to C1. I will avoid using English as much as possible and urge my students to do the same, unless otherwise noted. I will adapt our conversations to what you enjoy talking about and/or specific grammar points. I give homework when requested, usually PDFs, slides, or other resources for grammar, writing, listening, and/or reading (if you want to focus on one in particular, let me know!). **When you contact me for a lesson, please include what you believe your level to be, how long you have been learning, your language background, and what type of learner you are.

Friendly German Tutor | Start Speaking German Today I specialize in teaching German for absolute beginners (A1 level). I am patient, friendly, and organized. I understand that starting a new language can feel difficult, so I focus on building confidence step by step. I help my students understand grammar in a simple way and practice speaking from the first lesson.

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.

Professionelle Lehrerin für Deutsch als Fremdsprache mit 25 Jahren Praxis Ich bin Österreicherin. Deutsch ist meine Muttersprache. Aber ich habe Deutsch auch studiert und unterrichte seit 25 Jahren Deutsch als Fremdsprache. Ich selbst spreche Englisch und Spanisch, Französisch habe ich in der Schule gelernt und momentan lerne ich Tschechisch. In der Freizeit unternehme ich gerne etwas mit Familie und Freunden. Kunst, Kultur, Gesellschaft, Geschichte, Reisen sind Lieblingsthemen ... und unsere 2 Katzen ;-) Als Lehrerin bin ich sehr geduldig. Mir ist es wichtig, dass die Lernenden sich wohlfühlen und Freude beim Lernen haben. Fehler sind willkommen - denn wie ein deutsches Sprichwort sagt: Aus Fehlern wird man klug. :-) In den Konversationsstunden hier bei italki sollst du vor allem Spaß beim Sprechen haben. Natürlich gebe ich dir auch Feedback und wir können auch Grammatik üben, wenn du möchtest. Aber das Wichtigste ist das Sprechen, denn beim Sprechen lernt man eine Fremdsprache am schnellsten.

traveller & developer turned teacher I used to work as a software developer for many years, but now I'm really interested in teaching (and learning) languages. I'll try my best to adapt to specific needs and will encourage you to speak as much as possible: I'm a patient listener and will take notes and ask questions. These form the basis to work together on specific points that need attention. I try not to focus on grammar too much unless there's a real need for it (or you explicitly request it!). We can also do simulations, perhaps you need to prepare for an interview? I've a lot of experience interviewing for technical roles from my previous jobs.

German with a Leadership Coach l Speak confidently for Work & Life I´m David, a German engineer and leadership coach with over 10 years of experience leading international teams. I´m passionate about helping people grow, whether that's through language, coaching or personal development. Right now I'm traveling the world with my family - living currently in Bali. Teaching German on Italki is my way of connecting with people globally while doing what I love: helping others make progress. I offer practical, relaxed German lessons tailored to your goals - from everyday conversation to business German. Let's learn together.

NEW: Intense Speaking Session with written feedback&grammar support&Boni I would like my students to be able to speak to German speakers about anything from small talk to much more complex topics such as sport, literature, cinema, politics - anything you normally would talk about in your mother tongue. For those whose level is not good enough yet for a proper conversation, I'll teach you grammar and vocabulary to get you started. I have a postgraduate teaching qualification from the Goetheinstitut but more important I have been learning and teaching languages nearly all my life so I have experienced both sides. Living abroad and talk another language can be difficult but also fun once you get a better understanding how the language works.

German teacher and influencer with over 6 years of teaching experience After trying out a great deal of methods and approaches as far as language learning, I started teaching on italki 7 years ago to pass on what I've learned through a lot of experimenting and language immersion. I have now lived in many different countries and each time immersed myself in the language and while this is a good approach, it is not enough on its own and its not a possibility for everyone. However, speaking to native people using video calls is possible for anyone. That's why I am happy to teach my native language on italki and pass on my knowledge.
