German & English Tutor | Beginner-Based & Student-Centred Learning I’m passionate about helping students improve their speaking skills and gain confidence using the language in real-life situations. I understand that learning a language can feel stressful, especially when it comes to speaking. Many students know a lot of vocabulary and grammar but feel nervous, shy, or afraid of making mistakes. I’ve been there too, so my goal is to create a comfortable, supportive, and relaxed learning environment where you can speak freely and improve step by step. My lessons are mainly focused on conversation practice, but I always adapt them to each student’s needs and level.

Aufgeschlossene Kommunikationspartnerin Sprachen leben davon gesprochen zu werden, weswegen es hauptsächlich darum geht alltägliche Kommunikation zu führen. Andere verstehen und verstanden werden ist erstmal das wichtigste und die fachlich korrekten Ausdrucksweisen kommen dann automatisch. Auch wenn man vielleicht noch unsicher beim sprechen ist, weil man das schlecht alleine üben kann, sind Unterhaltungen ein ganz wichtiges Element, wenn man eine neue Sprache lernt. So werdet ihr nicht nur euer jetziges Sprachniveau halten, sondern auch verbessern, indem ihr Redewendungen, bestimmte Formulierungen oder neue Wörter kennenlernt.

Übung macht den Meister / Повторенье - мать ученья 😊 🖍 I am a professional full-time German teacher from South Tyrol (Italy), since 2010 I live in Austria. My native language is German and I have a teacher's degree (German/Russian). Since 2015, I have been teaching German as a Foreign and Second Language aimed at adults (18+) from all over the world, offline as well as online. In these 11 years I've taught German to more than 500 students and I’ve given more than 11000 lessons. 🖍 I am very patient and accurate, I can explain well, and I love to challenge people. That is why I usually give explanations in German (also for A1), but you can speak with me in Italian, English or Russian. 🖍 I offer various teaching materials. I like to use audios and videos for listening, for reading I like to work with textbooks, short novels (for learners of German A1-B2) or journal texts. We can talk about topics that you are interested in, have discussions, but you can also practice presentations or phone calls with me, and we can also simulate job interviews. To improve your writing skills, we will learn and practice useful phrases that you can actively use in emails, letters of complaint, statements, or other texts. IMPORTANT INFORMATION❗ - I work only with adults (18+). - Please first book a trial lesson or a single lesson, before you book a package. - Please follow Italki's rescheduling/cancellation terms. Both should be done at least 24 hours in advance, otherwise your class will be charged 100%.

Viele Jahre habe ich zuerst Kinder, Jugendliche und Erwachsene in verschiedenen Instrumenten und dann in meiner Heilpraktikerschule die angehenden Heilpraktiker theoretisch und praktisch unterrichtet. Dort trat dann auch ein College an mich heran, ob ich ausländische Ärzte und Pflegekräfte in Deutsch unterrichten könnte. So kam ich zum Deutschunterricht. Erst habe ich nur an diesem College unterrichtet, zuerst direkt vor Ort, später hauptsächlich Online. Seit 2 Jahren gebe ich Online Deutschunterricht für Kinder, Jugendliche und Erwachsene.

Focus on Job Application + Conversation + Psychology- Try also my group classes! My empathy and open-mindedness help me in creating a good atmosphere in my lessons, as a traveler I love to get to know people from different cultures. A training by the Goethe Institut helped me improve my teaching skills. My strengths as a teacher are my great German vocabulary which is particularly interesting for advanced students, my interest in many different topics and my knowledge of psychology which inspired me to offer some particular types of lessons. Generally, I am flexible to adapt to your wishes: talking, reading, writing and correcting texts together or also discussing grammar and solving grammar exercises.

Enthusiastic about helping YOU reach your language goals:) I pay close attention to my students and encourage them to speak as much as possible. I create a relaxed atmosphere where mistakes are welcome as we address them gently and learn from them by noticing and correcting recurring patterns. Ich achte sehr auf meine Schüler und ermutige sie, so viel wie möglich zu sprechen. In meinen Stunden entsteht eine entspannte Atmosphäre, in der Fehler erlaubt sind; wir besprechen sie und lernen, wiederkehrende Muster zu erkennen und zu verbessern. Я внимательно отношусь к своим ученикам и поощряю их говорить как можно больше. На уроках создаю спокойную атмосферу, где не страшно ошибаться; мы мягко разбираем ошибки и учимся замечать повторяющиеся моменты.

German teacher with around a decade of experience and about 6000 lessons with 800+ students. German obviously is my native language, and I basically have a whole life of experience speaking English at work or privately. Russian is my 3rd strongest language, and although I have no certificates confirming that, I can teach you that language up to a pretty high level, as you can see from my intro video. Besides that, I am also very interested and knowledgeable in the field of linguistics and I can help you with pronunciation and accents on a semi-professional level by applying things like the IPA, speech training and logopedic practices. Having said that, I do not specialize in teaching children and I very much recommend looking for a teacher that is experienced in that field.

Failure is Not an Option Hello! ¡Hola! Servus! I’m Karl-Heinz from Vienna. My career in journalism has spanned more than 40 years, involving the international press and EU institutions — a world where communication is everything. While English served as my professional lingua franca, Spanish has always been my “amor secreto.” Because of this, I know firsthand the challenges and worries that come with learning a foreign language, but I also know the incredible sense of fulfillment that follows. I joined italki to share my passion for the spoken word. I firmly believe that the most effective way to master a language is through authentic conversation, mirroring the natural way we acquired our mother tongue. It is about so much more than just memorizing vocabulary or sentence structures; as a famous Austrian philosopher once said, "The limits of your language are the limits of your world." My approach is patient, organized, and deeply individualized. I don’t believe in a "one-size-fits-all" method; instead, I offer tailored coaching that adapts to your unique pace and goals. When I’m not teaching, I’m usually pursuing my other passions: riding my motorbike, playing hockey, paragliding, or skiing. I look forward to helping you expand your horizons—let’s start the conversation!

„Your patient Goethe-certified guide to speaking German like a native!" My name is Luca, a certified German teacher (DaF/DaZ) with a background in teaching and music. I've lived in Germany, the US, Italy, and Russia, so I can also help with translations in English and Italian. I am a patient, easy-going teacher — mistakes are very welcome in my class! Everyone has their own pace and learning style (auditive, visual, kinesthetic), so I tailor every lesson to the individual student. First, I get to know you — your interests, your goals — and then we design lessons together where boredom will be just an old memory. My method focuses on "Redewendungen" (chunks): these allow you to speak fluently and naturally, like a native speaker, without overthinking grammar. Grammar is important, but it's a tool — not the goal. The goal is that you can speak German. Redewendungen work on a metacognitive level, meaning you'll use them automatically, without thinking. All aspects of language learning are covered: reading, writing, listening, speaking, pronunciation, sentence melody, and intonation. You decide what kind of lesson you want — learning a language must be fun. Book a trial lesson — bis bald!

My goal as a teacher is that you get the most out of the class. How do I want to achieve that? 1) Create a comfortable atmosphere: You have to be relaxed and feel comfortable in order to learn. I will try to create a very comfortable atmosphere so you can concentrate on the lesson. 2) Teaching a fun class: The class should be fun and interesting, that’s when we get the best results. I would love to know about topics that interest you and consider them in my preparation of the class. 3) Speak as much German as possible: You have to get used to the structure, the sound and the rhythm of the language. That's why I want to encourage you that we speak as much German as possible during the class.
