My courses will follow an individual curriculum. I will design the material for each lesson based on your particular areas of interest and the situations in which you would like to feel confident speaking German. Rather than following a strict sequence of lessons, I will create exercises for each session as we go, to make the learning process feel as natural as possible. I believe that you learn best what you truly need.

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.

Certified TELC-examiner and professional German teacher with 6 years+ experience and C2 exam passed. My classes are 100% tailored to YOU. I do not teach according to any one-size-fits-all scheme. I try to understand YOU and your individual learning style. I do not take on too many students so that I can fully focus on the needs of a smaller number. Quality goes over Quantity. I expect my students to be open to my methods and to be honest with me if they feel something is not to their liking. As a teacher I make sure that my students feel respected and comfortable. There is no space for ANY kind of discrimination in my classes and I will never ever give you the feeling you are being judged.

Teaching (and language learning) is who I am. In university, many of my friends were international students. I took pride in my ability to adapt my English to the appropriate level as they progressed. I was learning German, and this really helped me see things from their perspective. Now I am well-known in the Esperanto community - a regular teacher-in-residence at NASK and other events. In 1988 I became a tutor in a Free Esperanto Course (which I now administer), and when I left my IT career in 2016, I started teaching once a week at the local ESOL Association, as well as tutoring on line and in person. Teaching different languages in these situations has given me a unique perspective.
