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! 🚀

Although I’m not a professional teacher, I’m a native English speaker, and I can offer you a relaxed setting in which to practice your conversational English. The main thing is that you speak, and I’ll encourage you to not be afraid of making mistakes. I’ll try to make corrections in a way that least interferes with the conversation. If you’re an intermediate self-learner of German, my experience could be uniquely useful to you. I essentially taught myself the language to a high level, so I’m well acquainted with the difficulties self-learners face.

Zertifizierter Deutschlehrer mit 16-jähriger Berufserfahrung und 5-jähriger Online-Existenz Grüß Gott! Servus! Moin Moin! Grüezi! Ich bin Wassilis, Deutschlehrer aus Athen, Griechenland. --- For communicational purposes I can speak English & (of course) Greek. --- I went to the German School in Athens, did my Abitur & continued with the language certificates from Goethe Institute (up to the old GDS). As part of my history-archaeology-degree, I attended courses at Heidelberg University & wrote seminar papers in German. In the last 16 years I have worked as German teacher at language schools, a private school, privately & remotely. Since 2019 I have been teaching German as a foreign language online, mainly for adults who want to study, work or just live in the DACHL countries. I am constantly inspired by new (only-German) textbooks that you can also find and buy abroad. My students have successfully prepared themselves for exams for the Goethe Institute, TELC, ÖSD, the Greek State and testDaF. The decision to teach completely digitally even before the first lockdown was easy for me to make: a variety of textbooks, even combination with audiovisual materials and with a large number of videos, media libraries and articles that can be used in a targeted manner depending on the language level. Course notes and all materials can be uploaded, saved and shared, making the learning process easier and faster.

Deutsch Lehrer für Deutsch als Zweit-/Fremdsprache Ich habe Lehramt Deutsch und Deutsch als Zweitsprache studiert und besitze das 1. Staatsexamen. Ich habe bereits Unterrichtserfahrungen in Spanien an einer Deutschen Schule gesammelt. Dies hat mir sehr viel Freude bereitet, die Schüler in der deutschen Sprache zu unterrichten. Ich denke wir werden genauso viel Freude in unserer Unterrichtstunde haben. Ich interessiere mich sehr für andere Sprachen und Kulturen - vielleicht kann ich auch etwas von dir lernen.

Ausgebildete muttersprachliche Lehrkraft mit mehrjähriger Unterrichtserfahrung Ich komme aus Österreich, Deutsch ist meine Muttersprache und ich bin ausgebildete Lehrerin mit +6 Jahren Unterrichtserfahrung. Ich habe bereits mit Lernenden aller Altersgruppen und Niveaustufen gearbeitet. Ich spreche fließend Englisch, sodass wir, falls nötig, auch zwischen Englisch und Deutsch wechseln können. Mein Unterricht basiert auf drei Prinzipien: - Geduld: Jeder lernt in seinem eigenen Tempo. Ich dränge nicht, sondern begleite. - Struktur: Ich arbeite mit Lernzielen, damit du immer weißt, wo du stehst und was der nächste Schritt ist. - Lebensnähe: Ich arbeite mit Dialogen und Kontexten, die du im Alltag wirklich brauchst. Was mich als Lehrerin besonders macht: Ich bin Österreicherin, d.h., ich kann dich beim Lernen des "Österreichischen Deutsch" unterstützen. Jede Stunde ist individuell auf dich zugeschnitten, deine Ziele, dein Niveau und dein Tempo bestimmen den Weg. Darauf lege ich Wert: - Entspannte, freundliche Atmosphäre, in der du dich traust zu sprechen. - Mischung aus Grammatik, Wortschatz, Aussprache, Hörverstehen und freiem Sprechen. - Authentische Materialien: Echte Texte, Videos, Zeitungsartikel, Lieder und Alltagsdialoge - Hausaufgaben, wenn du sie möchtest - Regelmäßiges Feedback Neben dem Unterrichten begeistere ich mich für Sprachen, Psychologie/ Philosophie, Geopolitik, Literatur, Reisen und vieles mehr. Durch längere Aufenthalte in mehreren Ländern weiß ich genau, wie es sich anfühlt, eine neue Sprache zu lernen.

You understand German, but hesitate to speak? No role plays. No pressure. Calm, focused conversation As a teacher, I draw on my bilingual background in a very practical way. Having grown up with two languages, I know how it feels to understand a language well but still hesitate when speaking. This helps me recognize where learners get stuck and how to explain things clearly and calmly. I focus on real communication, selective corrections and building confidence step by step. My lessons are especially suited for adult learners who value clarity, structure and a relaxed learning atmosphere.

Native German | Goals from A-Z | All Levels & Ages | Conversation and/or Structure and/or Strategy My interest in teaching started early when I helped my siblings first. Later I completed my degree as a foreign language secretary in GER, ENG + FR (Business Correspondence/Translation/Interpreting = social and professional interaction). After that I began tutoring and soon realized how much I enjoy helping people make real progress. Since joining italki in early 2019, I have been rated a Top 1% German Teacher in 2023. My students have a success rate of about 99.5%, usually achieving results even better than expected. Learning a language is not only about grammar — it’s about communication, confidence, and understanding people. Everyone is welcome and speaking one's mind is encouraged

Möchtest du ohne Stress dein Sprechen💬 oder Schreiben✍️ verbessern? Bei mir bist du richtig! 🍵 "Hallo!" I’m very happy that you’re interested in improving your German with me :) I'm Jennifer and I am a native German speaker and certified German teacher with experience teaching both in schools and privately. Languages have always fascinated me. I love analyzing their structure and discovering their unique traits. I especially enjoy how learning languages can deepen your understanding of different cultures and perspectives. At the moment, I’m studying Korean and Japanese myself. Apart from languages, I enjoy cafés, board games, and video games. As a language learner myself, I understand the challenges of learning grammar, using formal and informal language, or even reading and writing a completely new alphabet. Having real conversations in German will boost your confidence and progress. I always adapt the lessons to your level and learning style. Depending on your needs, I will adjust my speaking speed, vocabulary, and sentence structures. If necessary, I can also explain things in English or Korean. The most important thing to me is that you enjoy learning and that the lessons feel memorable. By focusing on topics that interest you, you’ll learn vocabulary and expressions that are useful for your life and real situations. Together, we’ll improve your skills step by step so that you can communicate more naturally and confidently in German. I believe language learning should be effective and enjoyable, and I’m here to support you along the way. See you in class!

Bei mir wird gesprochen. Ich rege Gespräche an, indem ich meine Schüler viele Fragen stellen, um zu herauszufinden, wofür sie sich interessieren, was ihre Stärke und Schwäche sind, wie sie am liebsten mit lernen, usw. Von Typ her bin ich äußerst neugierig und höre meinen Schülern sehr genau und mit viel Geduld zu. Wenn man das eigene Lebensgeschichte erzählen kann, kann man auch wohl sehr gut Deutsch reden, weshalb ich ermutige meine Schüler soviel wie möglich von sich selbst zu sagen, wahr oder gelogen.

✔ Take your German to the next Level I’ve started private teaching in 2014. I have no accent, and I teach in standard German. In the beginning I taught people from East Asia, but today my students are coming from all over the world. I'm particularly interested in languages like Japanese, Chinese and Korean. Right now I'm trying to master Japanese. Understanding how these languages are structured gives me the opportunity to teach you German in a more understandable way. In addition, I can help you, to pass the TestDaF, which is the general German language test for foreigners, who want to start studying at a German University. I've also experience in preparing students for the DSH language test and the Goethe-Zertifikat.

Ich bin Muttersprachler in Deutsch und spreche zusätzlich Englisch und Russisch auf hohem Niveau. Ich habe Erfahrung im Einzelunterricht und im Unterrichten von Lernenden mit unterschiedlichen Zielen – von Alltagssprache bis Studium und Beruf. Durch meine Mehrsprachigkeit verstehe ich typische Fehlerquellen und Denkweisen von Deutschlernenden sehr gut und kann Inhalte klar und strukturiert erklären. Als Lehrkraft arbeite ich strukturiert, zielorientiert und praxisnah. Ich lege Wert darauf, dass Lernende aktiv sprechen und das Gelernte sofort anwenden können. Grammatik erkläre ich verständlich und ohne unnötige Theorie. Mein Ziel ist nicht „perfekt lernen“, sondern sicher anwenden – im Gespräch, im Studium oder im Berufsalltag. Meine Stunden sind klar aufgebaut und an das Niveau und Ziel des Lernenden angepasst. Je nach Bedarf arbeiten wir an Sprechen, Wortschatz, Grammatik oder Textverständnis. Der Fokus liegt immer auf aktiver Nutzung der Sprache. Fehler werden gezielt korrigiert und erklärt. Auf Wunsch gebe ich kurze Hausaufgaben oder Wiederholungsaufgaben, um Fortschritte zu sichern.
