German with Confidence – Certified Teacher, 5+ Years Online (Babbel Live) I have been teaching my mother tongue since 1999 in classroom settings and switched to online teaching in 2020. Since then, I have worked with many students from different countries and backgrounds. My teaching style is friendly yet formal, as the goal is to make you confident in the language rather than simply find a buddy – even if good rapport often comes naturally. This approach also reflects a German trait: it may take a little time to warm up, but once you do, it’s solid and lasting.

Certified TEFL/Goethe teacher with 7+ years online teaching experience & 3 further years in schools. With thousands of classes under my belt, I’m trying something new. Rather than categorising classes by learner level, I’m switching to a learner and teacher engagement model. This lets you decide how invested you would like me to be in your success in and out of class. All classes begin with us getting to know each other, discussing the student's language aims and goals in general. I am approachable, flexible and easy going. My students feel at ease learning with me whether it is to improve their conversation or whether they aspire to pass exams and relocate. I offer consistent support and kind correction aiming always for continuous language improvement.

Learn German with fun - don't be afraid of mistakes and let's have a good time talking :-) Language learning should be FUN! I want to help you feel RELAXED and not nervous when speaking German. Since I have many italki teachers myself, I know how important it is, to make the student speak. YES - YOU HAVE TO SPEAK! IN GERMAN! And I promise: It's not as hard as you think! Let's neglect the difficult grammar for a while and you will be surprised how soon you will be able to comunicate! Let me give you an example: What if I said: "Have he cat?" instead of "Does he have a cat?" - It's wrong, but totally understandable! -> So if you say "Er haben Katze?" instead of "Hat er eine Katze?" everybody will be able to understand you!

Hi, I’m Vivian, a native German speaker with 10+ years of language teaching experience. Over the years, I've worked with learners of different ages, levels and goals. I also spent years as a news editor, so you get clear structure, natural phrasing and precise corrections. How lessons work: We start with a quick level check and one clear goal. Then we build habits through focused practice and targeted feedback. I'll find what is holding you back most and focus on the changes that will help you improve fastest, based on your goal. Get in touch if you want - to speak with more confidence, sound more natural and improve your pronunciation - to finally master grammar in practice without getting stuck in theory - to write better emails and messages and get precise corrections - to prep for interviews, exams or a move to a German speaking country If it helps, I can explain tricky points in German, English and/or Mandarin. Tell me your level and your goal and I’ll suggest a simple plan for the first lessons. Let’s get started!
