A polyglot who will teach you the way Germans really speak. The reason why I started to teach on italki were my friends who told me that I was a huge help for them while we we're doing a language exchange. So I wanna help other people to improve their German. I'm a really patient and passionate teacher. My biggest aim will be that you speak German as natural as possible. I pay a lot of attention to mistakes and pronunciation. I was told that I speak German very slowly compared to other German natives and explain things in a easy way.

I speak accent-free Standard German and I am fluent in English as well. My background is linguistics (Master of Arts) with many years of language teaching experience and an understanding of the structure of languages. In my final thesis I explored how cultural differences are manifested in languages and how they are mistakingly carried into target languages by learners. I have worked as a language teacher on almost all levels. I have taught groups and individuals at university and school level as well as in business environments. Many of my current clients are from Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Furthermore, I love languages and constantly try new methods for my own language learning to put me in the shoes of the learner. My teaching style is goal-oriented and suited to individual needs. My classes are well-prepared and structured with the freedom to adjust to your progress. It is most important for me that you feel safe and free to make mistakes and at the same time experience a sense of achievement.

Energetic, fun and REAL CONVERSATION classes with a motivated teacher 🗣️🇩🇪 I am a teacher but first and foremost I am also a forever student. Through my work as an Aupair in which I practised German with Kids aged 6 to 10 and through my language studies at University I learned that you can only teach others if you are also willing to learn and consistently drive to better your own skills. From learning many foreign languages myself I have developed my own personal hacks and tips on how to most effectively learn a new language. I accept lesson cancellations or reschedules with less than 24 hours in advance. However, this depends on my current lesson demand and schedule therefore I will decide on that for each individual case.

Konversation auf Deutsch, mit viel Geduld und locker bringe ich euch die deutsche Sprache näher. Thanks to my language studies in Italy, where I attended university, I understood how important it is to use the new language every day to make steady improvements and I also know how difficult it can be to learn it when you have a busy life.

One of the most experienced German teachers on italki – with nearly 5,000 lessons taught I'm a certified German teacher (Goethe-Institut) with years of experience helping students of all levels and backgrounds. One of the biggest blocks I see in learners is the pressure to speak perfectly. That mindset holds you back. My job is to help you feel safe, supported, and encouraged to speak freely — fluent, not flawless ;-) I offer different lesson types: - Fully structured courses (great if you’re starting from zero) - Conversation-focused sessions (with or without materials) - A mix of both — customized to your goals No matter where you're starting from, we'll build lessons that fit you personally.

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.

Certified DaF Teacher | Business German | MBA & LL.M. Hello, I'm Josie, and I help international professionals find their voice in the German workplace. I teach them to advocate for themselves and enjoy living in Germany. Have you worked here for years, understood everything in meetings, but frozen when it was your turn to speak? Do you want to negotiate a better salary at your next review or understand why your German colleagues seem so direct? That's where I come in! I speak five languages and have lived and worked in several countries, so I understand the learner's perspective and the professional's perspective of trying to thrive in a culture that isn't their own. Outside of teaching, I'm a documentary photographer who has visited over 30 countries, and I play flag football. I love good conversations, and I design my lessons around them. I am a certified DaF (Deutsch als Fremdsprache) teacher, Goethe-Institut certified, and I have taught learners from A1 to C1 levels, from complete beginners to advanced professionals refining their final 10%. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Specialized Translation (Economics), an MBA in Marketing and Data Management, and a Master of Laws (LL.M.) in Information Law. This combination is particularly relevant to my focus area: Business German. I understand not just the language, but also the world in which you operate — contracts, compliance, negotiations, and corporate communication.

Tutor in German literature, philosophy and art Hallo zusammen! I'm a writer, lecturer and teacher engaged in making art and culture accessible—and that is understandable—for everyone. Since my studies (BA & MA) in Germany, Egypt and India, I have been working in various self-organized and community-based projects where I could bring this vision forward. Overall, I'm interested in the question how different languages shape a different way of thinking, which I have encountered while learning different languages such as Latin, Greek, Arabic, Spanish and English. In my teaching, I apply creative and alternative teaching methods (flipped classroom, project based learning) and I find it particularly important to maintain a horizontal attitude towards my students. Instead of maintaining my authority, I tend to see my students as participants in a mutual effort of learning. I understand a teaching lesson as a collective experience rather than a lecture that is delivered only by the teacher. I always try to spark my students' interest by using different media in order to engage them with apparently less appealing topics such as German literature (Goethe, Kafka, Kleist, etc.) and philosophy (Hegel, Nietzsche, Marx, etc.).

I really enjoy my job and love seeing my students improve their skills step by step and experience moments of success both in and outside of class. My students can be sure that I always show up to class with a smile on my face, that the lessons are carefully prepared and tailored to the needs of each individual student, and that I answer all questions during class with clear explanations and lots of patience.

A polyglot who wishs to help you to be polyglot ;D Although I don't have experience closely related to teaching, I have participated in many Tandem events in which I have helped others to learn German. In addition to this, since I am a keen traveller and I have often been able to encounter and communicate with people from different backgrounds speaking different languages, I know how to express myself when facing different people and understand you more accurately. This would help me better adapt the lessons to your needs.
