Certified DaF teacher | Business German | German work culture for international professionals 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.

I am a certified TestDaF and telc examiner. I specialise in test preparation. I am a certified TestDaF and telc examiner. I specialise in test preparation (Goethe-Zertifikat, TestDaF, telc, ÖSD, fide, etc.). I have been teaching German online since 2016. Prior to that, I taught German at one of the leading language schools in Berlin for over six years to build my teaching skills and experience. I hold a Magister (German equivalent to the master's degree) in German history and literature from Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin (2001) and a certificate of teaching German as a foreign language from Goethe-Institut, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München (2010). Before becoming a language teacher, I was a journalist for six years at a local newspaper in Potsdam. Language lessons can be fun, but language-learning is certainly time-consuming and occasionally frustrating. I am therefore aiming at establishing a collaborative relationship with you and keeping you motivated and inspired along the way. I look forward to working together with you! I offer both general German language lessons and specific courses of grammar, conversation, writing, test preparation and interview preparation. My focus is on intermediate and advanced German learners, who need a higher level of accuracy and fluency in terms of exposition, argumentation and self-expression. WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT • Proficiency evaluation • Lessons at your own individual needs and learning style • Various learning materials • Conversation oriented lessons • Error correction of your written texts

Deutsch ist eine wunderschöne Sprache und gern wird Deutschland auch als das Land der Dichter und Denker bezeichnet. Daher war es mir schon immer wichtig meine Muttersprache in Wort und Schrift zu beherrschen und mich mit anderen über Stunden zu unterhalten und dabei das Sprachniveau stets zu erhöhen. Ich liebe die deutsche Sprache und habe zum Beispiel als Ausbilder bei der Bundeswehr, beim Training von Berufskraftfahrern oder als Leiter der Jugendfeuerwehr immer darauf geachtet, daß sowohl Rechtschreibung, Grammatik als auch Aussprache korrekt sind. Auch privat ist mir dies jeden Tag ein großes Anliegen und dies vermittle ich ruhig, anschaulich, mit Beispielen und vor allem mit Freude.

Speaking is the best way to learn a language, so my lessons usually center around having an actual conversation in German, but I will also give you grammar instructions and help you with pronunciation as and when necessary. If you struggle with any particular grammar topic, we can of course also dedicate a whole lesson to that. Generally I'm happy to adapt myself to your needs and preferences. While we talk, I make extensive notes in a google document, I write down new vocabulary with example sentences, grammar instructions, corrections, etc. You'll have access to this document during and after the classes.
